| “’Twas the night before Christmas…”
JR Thornton seeks redemption for his many unwitting evil deeds by dressing up in a Santa suit to deliver gifts to an orphanage, but the angry wood fairy guarding the house is more interested in blowing his head off.
Phaedra hates JR for destroying her home forest and the lives of her family. Now a caregiver putting herself through college, she’s determined to give the most evil and handsome man she knows a piece of her mind.
So why does she want so badly to sit in Santa’s lap?

"Santa Paws is a short, yet hot and steamy romance. Ms Austin also gives an interesting twist to the poem “Twas the Night Before Christmas” I know this reviewer will have trouble ever looking at the words of the poem the same again.
