North Pole engineer Garrett McCree values his peace and quiet above all else, and his life runs according to a carefully crafted master plan. Until, that is, Santa Claus asks Garrett to play chaperone to the winner of the North Pole Prize essay contest. Out of loyalty to Santa, Garrett reluctantly agrees. After all, how much trouble can one woman possibly be? But when beautiful and vivacious Angelique Devereaux, a Christmas-loving, serial gift giver arrives at Christmas Central, Garrett soon realizes the answer to that question. Predictable is out, spontaneous is in, and Garrett’s heart will never be the same.
This short story is relatively new to the market as it was released in late 2014. It is available in both Spanish and English. Sales have been steady and I feel confident that it will continue to sell as well as my othe Christmas themed romance novellas.
“Santa asked to see me?” Garrett McCree looked up from his desk and studied the elf that stood in front of him. “Are ye sure, Rapz?”
The elf nodded emphatically. “Yep, I’m positive. The big guy asked me to escort you back to his office myself.”
“A personal escort? That sounds ominous.” Garrett sat back in his chair and laced his fingers behind his head while he thought. He knew Rapz by reputation as an elf who generally managed to mess up every single order he was ever given. But now, under Garrett’s scrutiny, Rapz seemed quite certain that he was doing Santa’s bidding. A summons up to the inner sanctum of Christmas Central wasn’t an order that Garrett had ever received before, but there was a first time for everything, wasn’t there?
“Well, come on.” Rapz motioned for him to get up but Garrett Angus McCree wasn’t a man who hurried for anyone. Not even Santa Claus.
“In good time, Rapz, all in good time.” With a great deliberation, Garrett rolled up the plans he’d been working on and slid them into a cylinder container. With equal attention to detail he gathered up his drafting pens and replaced them in a drawer. “And you’ve no idea what Santa wishes to discuss with me?”
