Who fires Santa? Cole Henster, that's who.
Loathing leads to love in this holiday grump romance from a USA TODAY Bestseller: Cole Henster - he was my secret shame - the guy I loved to hate and would hate to love, because like everyone else, I knew the cold, hard truth. The guy's heart was frozen solid, like a snowball left for too long in the freezer.
Cole Henster wasn't just my boss. He was the new owner of Winterville Chocolates, a gourmet candy company that specialized in holiday treats. He was a grump. A monster. A stone-cold corporate raider who'd rolled into the company like a giant ball of ice, leaving a trail of wintery destruction in his wake. Who else but him would give our company's Santa the ol' holiday heave-ho?
The guy should look like a goblin. But did he? Of course not. He had thick chestnut-colored hair, killer abs, and dark brooding eyes - the kind of eyes that might've put me on Santa's naughty list if only they didn't belong to him.
But forget the pretty packaging. On the inside, he'd been a huge disappointment, like a dog turd wrapped in a fancy gift box. Sure, you could open the thing, but would you really want to?
There was just one tiny problem.
I sort of wanted to.
And just when I think I'm out of danger, I discover the monster living directly across the street from my swanky new Christmas cat-sitting gig. On the upside, the monster wouldn't be discovering me . Not if I could help it.
***This sweet and occasionally spicy love-hate romantic comedy is new for 2022 and includes a guaranteed happily-ever-after! After all, who doesn't want a grumpy boss-slash-neighbor for Christmas?
The Kitten Cove Christmas Trilogy: Grump of Cole is the first in a 2022 holiday trilogy of Christmas romance-comedy books starring three quirky cat-sitters and the dashing men who claim their hearts. Each book can be read as a standalone.
Note from the Author: Although the books in this trilogy are generally as sweet as Christmas pie, each contains some scenes that are too steamy for the kitties, er, I mean kiddies.
