Spend Christmas in the California sun with these feel-good, later-in-life contemporary romance short stories. Five standalone short stories. Five sultry dreams. Five hot, sweet Santas whose gifts can't be wrapped and put under a tree.

Santa & Anna
When a divorced baker-to-the-stars bumps into Santa, their meet is anything but cute. Crumbs and icing fly--until Santa makes a deal and delivers not one but two sweet gifts.
Santa & Clara
When a workaholic Silicon Valley IT consultant reluctantly takes on the role of Mrs. Claus at her client's corporate Christmas bash, a B-list celebrity Santa coaxes her to reveal her fantasy holiday wish.
Santa Cru
Sofia practically pops a cork when the Santa she hires for her winery's big party cancels last-minute--until his stand-in's earnest plea restores her Christmas spirit.
Santa & Monica
Stuck together in a luxury beachfront vacation rental, Santa and Monica's slow-burn connection and dark humor transform loss into found.
