From USA Today Bestselling author comes a sexy Contemporary Christmas Novella set in New Zealand.
NZ Hotelier Kara O'Regan hates the silly season. Growing up she'd wanted to find that special person and settle down, having the big family she'd never had. But life sucks. Four years ago on Christmas Day, when her fiancΓ© learned she couldn't have children, he walked out taking her heart and future with him. She won't risk another relationship, so now it's wham bam, thank you man, and she's gone. So when sexy as hell, American Jake Sullivan breezes into town, she knows he'd be perfect to help chase away the festive blues.
Jake (Sully) Sullivan avoids Christmas. Estranged from his ex-wife and children many years ago through being an alcoholic asshole, the festive season is pointless. So eight days before Christmas when his boss asks him to go check out a vintage Jaguar, he jumps at the chance. A couple of weeks of down under sun, sex, and vintage cars sounds idyllic until he meets beautiful, bitter, and sad Kara O'Regan. He's been there and recognizes the scars. Now all he wants to do is help Kara open her heart and find a new futureβonly he'd never imagined it could be with him...
