Mountain Man's Naughty Elf

“When you’re on the naughty list, sometimes you need a mountain man with a very big…cabin.”

PEPPER:
Working as the head elf at North Pole Village was supposed to be festive fun—until I caught my ex embezzling from the charity toy drive. Now I’m on the run in a snowstorm, with evidence stuffed in my pointy hat and nowhere to hide except the cabin of the broodiest mountain man I’ve ever seen. Pax Forrester is six-foot-four of silent intensity who clearly wants me gone, but the blizzard and my vengeful ex have other plans. I need to lay low until I can expose Nolan’s scheme, but hiding out is getting complicated. Especially when Pax looks at me like he wants to unwrap more than just Christmas presents. Did I mention I’m still wearing my elf costume? Jingle bells have never been this dangerous.

PAX:
Three years of perfect solitude ruined by one woman in candy-cane striped tights. Pepper Prescott burst through my door in the middle of a blizzard, bringing trouble, tinsel, and the first real temptation I’ve felt since leaving civilization behind. When her corrupt ex-fiancé shows up with armed “security,” my protective instincts kick in—instincts I thought I’d buried after Afghanistan. Now we’re snowed in together, plotting to take down the town’s crooked mayor, and I can’t stop thinking about how her curves would feel against my hands. She says it’s just until the storm breaks. I say some storms are worth getting caught in. This Christmas, I’m putting someone on my nice list for the first time—and I plan to be very, very naughty.
