On Santa S Lap

"Santa is scary with his pot stomach and beard that God knows what's inside and his abusive name calling. I mean, he calls everyone hoes." Evelyn Monroe hates Christmas with a passion, and she vows to hate it till the day she dies. Up until she was seventeen, she was a firm believer about all things Christmas, including that Father Christmas exists. But after reality slapped her hard, all she wants to do with Christmas spirit is to shoot it down. Christmas season drives her borderline crazy, and things just got a tad harder when an insanely hot Santa with a six-pack starts following her around. Nik McArthur a.k.a 'Santa' was busy greeting kids when he saw the Grinch in human form, albeit a prettier and more charming version. Now, he wants nothing short of her for Christmas, and he's gonna find her and turn her into his own little elf no matter how fast she runs. Between holiday parties and a Santa stalker hot on her heels, Evelyn is clearly struggling to keep up. Everything only goes off the charts hilarious when a jealous ex and a six-year- old kid whoknows way too much join the mix. Will this daft turn of events push her over the edge? Or will it make her believe in Chistmas once more? On a different note, will Nik ever discover why she hates Christmas so much? One thing's for sure, this will take a Christmas miracle to sort out.

The camera caught me wriggling in Santa’s lap, and soon, I was pregnant with the jolly gentleman’s baby! Cleo: I agreed to help an old family friend. Brody’s a professional photographer who said his usual elf bailed at the last minute. So I offered to take her place, figuring it wouldn’t be a big deal to take pictures of kids at the mall. But never underestimate Santa because beneath that big red suit and white beard is a man with washboard abs, devilish blue eyes, and a smile that makes my thighs clench as my insides go hot. Even more, Brody’s got a HUGE surprise that hangs all the way down to his knee! It swings and dangles, with a Christmas ornament that lights up in its own way at the end. Soon, I was sitting in Santa’s lap, but we weren’t just smiling for the crowd. Instead, the camera caught us in some naughty poses that were NEVER supposed to be captured on film. The best part? That no one could tell while I squirmed and panted breathlessly with my skirt flipped up in back. (At least, I don’t think so!) But now, the jolly gentleman’s left me with a gift because after Christmas break ends, I learn that the stork’s coming … with a special surprise for Brody and me! This is a follow-up to Three Weeks of Hedonism where we meet the sassy girl who was bullied for *allegedly* letting Santa take her while she posed in his lap. Fair warning: never bring your kids to Christmas at the mall because if the elf’s wearing a short skirt while gasping with a frozen smile, then it could really be happening! As always, high heat, no cheating, and no cliffhangers for my readers. HEA guaranteed.

William and Erica Smith are back, for more paranormal investigations.At first, they remain part of "The Paranormal Society of America", but as more and more of their neighbors come to realize that they are paranormal investigations, Bill and Erica decide that it might be best to leave "the Society", and start their own practice as paranormal investigators but it remains to be seen if their experience with "the Society", will end up paying off, now that they're in business by themselves.

The Smiths are back at it again, investigating more haunted houses with the "Paranormal Society of America", but when neighbors of theirs, when they find out that they are paranormal investigators through an appearance of "the Society", on an obscure TV show, and the rest of the team is busy with other cases, the Smiths strike out on their own using their own experiences with the paranormal to help out their neighbors

“Pregnancy was a 90-minute massage compared to life now.” After her little bundle of joy, Rowan (aka The Dictator) arrives, Rebecca Eckler wonders when the promised “rewarding” part will kick in. She wasn’t supposed to trade in tight jeans for baggy sweatpants, or give up the dream of sound sleep and a passionate sex life. Yet, even in the throes of her exhaustion, Rebecca gleans and shares some sound advice for modern moms, including everything you need to know on • The Diaper Genie: “It’s been six weeks and we have yet to use this ‘must-have’ baby item because we can’t figure out how the damn thing works.” • Achievement: “No matter how well I had done in school, no matter what my career accomplishments were, my mother had never been so proud of me as when I gave birth.” • Keeping up appearances: “How is it possible that I haven’t had a drink in months, yet still look worse than I ever did hung over?” • The effectiveness of baby monitors: “You can hear a baby screaming through walls. Unless you live in the Taj Mahal and place your baby at the other end of the palace, there is no way you won’t hear her cry.” • Size matters: “I had made the mistake of trying on a pair of pre-pregnancy jeans, which I couldn’t get up past my knees. It was the worst decision I have ever made.” With the same dry wit as her hilarious chronicle Knocked Up: Confessions of a Hip Mother-to-be, Eckler sets the record straight on being a new mom: the highs, the lows, and the sheer bliss that comes when you’re dealing with the demands of someone who’s not very large but undeniably in charge. Praise for Knocked Up “Painfully funny . . . biting wit.” –Los Angeles Times “Quirky and outlandish.” –New York Daily News
