Taste of the Holidays

Where festive treats and sparks of romance collide to make a spicy and fun holiday quartet! Taste of the HolidaysMy nephew’s dad left my nephew and my sister, and now I’m determined to make this holiday season the best they’ve ever had. I know I can’t replace his dad, but I can be the best aunt and sister they could want or need. That means taking them to things like this gingerbread competition for families. At least, until they decided to limit the families spaces to pairs, and now I can’t even fit at their table to watch them decorate their gingerbread house. Instead, I’m put at the same table as Sasha, a godfather who found himself the spare in his little family, too. But instead of responding with the same anger I have, he’s being infuriatingly sweet about the whole situation, and it just makes me want to kiss the happiness right out of him. I can’t sacrifice my nephew’s good holidays for my own romantic desires, but will Sasha wait? Give Me Some SugarBeing single was fine until my best friend decided to spend the holidays with her boyfriend’s family instead of with me. Now I’m sitting in an empty apartment, wallowing in self-pity.Until Theo knocked on my door.This sexy single dad needed sugar so he could bake cookies with his son, and now I’m invited to join them.How could I say no to that?All that was left to know was if this was going to be one night. Or could this be forever?Snowed in the StacksI’ve been working all day in the local library, reorganizing bookcases and shuffling titles around, simply because hardly anyone came in today.I guess I should have realized that the light snow I walked through this morning to get here had now become a full-blown blizzard and had been steadily climbing while I worked.Snowed in, and the only company I have is from Dom Voss, the quiet contractor with biceps bigger than my head. He fell asleep in front of the fire, and now it’s just the two of us until morning.How else should I spend the night if not cuddled up with him?If he’ll let me, that is.Sugar-Coated KissesI had everything I needed-a husband, a beautiful son, and a life I loved. But one day, he decided it wasn’t enough, and my existence became suspended as I scrambled for footing.Six months later, I found myself strapping on my high heels and zipping up my sexy dress, throwing myself back out there and hoping a holiday singles party might change my life.Hailey was a light, and she made me feel alive and seen for the first time in months. So between champagne kisses and flaky pastries, I want nothing more than to touch her with a fire that matched the ones in her eyes.Would it just be one night? Or could Hailey be my new forever?
