Ottavia Wilkinson likes life plain, simple and uncomplicated. Unfortunately that’s led to a very predictable life. So when she starts to make changes to switch things up a little, she’s startled to find that she’s caught the eye of a local bad boy. Yet, with Christmas around the corner, her inner vixen convinces her to offer Julian Ryder a gift he can’t say no to… Julian has always been attracted to Ottavia. To him she’s the epitome of everything a woman should be, but he knows she’s the sort that will never go for his type. But no one is more surprised than he when Ottavia starts to transform into a woman that is pure temptation. It makes it difficult for him to hide his feelings, but no way is he going to approach her. However, when she presents him with a Christmas gift beyond his wildest dreams all bets are off.

Yves Davidson didn’t know what she was getting herself into when she volunteered to be on the holiday planning committee again. Like the rest of her friends, she enjoys the Christmas holiday, but she’s too busy to even enjoy it. What’s even more frustrating is how closely she has to work with Zander Corwin. He’s a sexy, drop-dead gorgeous, egotistical jerk. But she’s determined not to allow him to ruin her holiday spirit. She’ll just make sure to avoid him at all costs. Regrettably, her plans are ruined when she’s assigned to report directly to him… Zander Corwin has no idea why Yves doesn’t like him. Yet, when she ends up volunteering to take a role on the town’s holiday committee that reports to him, he can’t believe his luck. He sees it as an opportunity to change her impression of him. Only he doesn’t realize just how headstrong she is. Regardless, he has a surprise for Yves that will be very hard for her resist.
