Book Description
Immerse yourself in the allure of the holidays with my special box set, showcasing three sizzling love stories that promise to ignite your Christmas wishes and fill your cozy moments with the warmth of romance." Lucky’s Naughty Angel: A Second Chance Romance I don't deserve a girl like Julia. She's young, sweet, pure, sheltered...she's my total opposite. I've been trying to pull my life together since my idiot brother got me thrown in prison, but it doesn't change the facts. I'm a bad guy. I'm a devil and Reverend Alderson's daughter Julia is an angel on Earth. I love her, and I want to do things to her that would make the Reverend want my head. So I have to stay away. But then she decides to kiss me in a damn elevator, and make it really clear that she wants me just as bad as I want her and she's willing to go behind dear old Daddy's back to have me. This is a bad idea. But I can't resist. She crooks her finger, and I come running. I've never felt so good about being bad in my life. The Orphan Next Door: A Single Daddy Next Door Romance Emily is too young for me, but I can't shake how much I want her. I want to rescue her from her isolation. I certainly want to rescue her from that gold-digging little creep James. I want to love her and be loved by her, and wake up to her face every morning. And of course, I'd love to make her mine. Even if our age difference didn't make me hesitate, James is doing his best to get and stay in the way, even after Emily throws him out of her life. He's stalking her; he's stalking us. And he's way too interested in my little girl for comfort. I'm determined to have Emily in my arms, safe from him and from the world's other predators. And when I finally get what I want, it's paradise. For a while, I don't think twice about that little brat and his complaining. But James isn't done. And as Emily and I work toward our first of what we hope is many Christmases to come, he's going to take his revenge. I'm a patient man. But when he endangers my lover and my little girl, it is time for a reckoning. Santa’s Naughty Helper: A Bad Boy Christmas Romance Alexis is what I want for Christmas this year, and nothing will stop me until I make her mine. Things always go my way, and I don't pay the consequences. So, when I get into legal and financial trouble, I'm happy to take the plea deal to avoid a scandal. And what is that deal? Playing the part of Santa in one of the largest malls in New York. This is when I meet her. She's timid, innocent, and alluring. She should definitely be on the Nice List. But I'll put her on my naughty list this holiday season.

HEATH Of all the names I’ve been called in Manhattan, “good guy” has never been one of them. But that’s what I have to become…the day my father’s law firm (and sexy lawyer Violet Keats) fall into my lap. Being “the boss” has never been harder. Being office enemies with Violet Keats? Never hotter. Until one night—and one gamble for the firm's future—changes everything. Guess earning that “good guy” title is going to be much harder than I thought… --- AUTHOR'S NOTE: *The Bet is a full-length novel, the second interconnected story in the Manhattan Nights series.

It was hot and their chemistry was insane!" - Sabby, Amazon Review ★★★★★ "These two are my favorite characters so far.
