About this series
The best gifts in life are surprises…
Surprise! Thanks to a blizzard named Blitzen, Christie McQuade can’t make it home for Christmas. Stranded in an airport, things look bleak…until she runs into delicious Deputy Damian Reade, who along with his four-year-old son, Eli, is likewise wondering how to salvage his holidays.
A ’57 Chevy Bel Air christened “Vixen” is their last hope. Christie’s not always the trusting type…but after a background check through her investigative brother clears Damian – and after all, how can a man who’s so patient and loving with his son be dangerous? – she joins them on a Cross Country Christmas adventure filled with fun and surprises…not the least of which is the powerful chemistry between Damian and Christie.
Chemistry is one thing. Heart-tugging is another. And damned if both father and son aren’t soon tugging on Christie’s previously-broken heart-strings.
A child’s unshakeable faith in Santa, his seemingly impossible Christmas wishes of the Jolly Old Man, and a whole lot of holiday magic may lead Damian and Christie to the biggest surprise of all…love.
Although the first two books in this series are Romantic Suspense, this special Christmas novel does not contain suspense. You do not need to read the first two books in order to fully enjoy this story, as it stands alone. However readers of "Laws of Attraction" and "Big Bad Wolfe" will love revisiting their favorite characters and celebrating with them during the holidays.

- Laws of Attraction: Marriage & Mayhem!, #1
1
The only thing scarier than a gunfight, is falling for your fake husband... Undercover DEA Agent Dallas McQuade is closing in on his enemies, packing both a badge and a grudge. This Texas lawman plays by his own rules and he's willing to risk everything for the revenge that's been too long coming. Kickass disbarred lawyer Mia Linden is out for blood. On a quest to bring down the man who destroyed her life, and her career, nothing will stand in her way. Not even a sexy as sin hired gun. When their quests for vengeance collide, they're forced into a reluctant partnership—and a quickie Las Vegas wedding. Dallas vows to protect his temporary bride, even if it costs him his life. Mia has plans of her own, and she doesn't intend to leave all the fun—or bullet dodging—to her unintended hubby. Falling in love wasn't something either of them wanted. But they can't deny the passion and desire ricocheting between them, deadlier than a hail of gunfire. Maybe they're strong enough to heal each other and make this fake marriage real…if they survive. But will they choose vengeance…or love? Book 1 of 3 in the Marriage & Mayhem! series.
- Big Bad Wolfe: Marriage & Mayhem!, #2
2
FBI Special Agent Zane Wolfe fears nothing... Except fatherhood. So suddenly discovering he's the father of a five-year-old son terrifies him. Jillian Ramsay has had temporary custody of her best friend’s little boy since his mother recently died. As the assistant director of a school for disadvantaged children, she recognizes Zane is a survivor of childhood abuse. While Jillian understands Zane's trepidation, she also sees that behind his protective walls, her Big Bad Wolfe is good-hearted and caring. She’s in a desperate fight for custody against the child’s vicious uncle…and she needs Zane to face his fears—just long enough to help her win permanent custody of his son. Zane's ready to turn tail and run for the first time in his life. Until sinister motives behind the death of his son’s mother put both the boy and Jillian in danger. As Zane works with Jillian to secure his son's future, keeping his barricades intact becomes far more difficult than he imagined. Because while Jillian might not huff and puff, her patience and tenderness are chipping away at his walls. He’ll do anything to protect his son…including temporarily marrying Jillian. Then he’s determined to return to his safe, solitary existence. The Big Bad Wolfe fears nothing. Except failing those he loves.

Diana Duncan
When her dreams of becoming a ballerina were quashed by early-onset klutziness, Diana Duncan took up the safer vocation of writing. Her first thrilling masterpiece--written in orange crayon--was titled "Perky the Kitten," and became an instant bestseller with her grandparents. Her childhood growing up as a military brat gave her the ability to leap into a conversation with anyone, anywhere, anytime...and she always discovers a new friend in the process. This gift of gab perfectly equipped her for a career that involves making stuff up. Di is famous for using seven words when one will do. She wields smart-assery like a samurai sword, and will be the first to volunteer in a catastrophe. Of course, she was probably the one who caused the catastrophe. She's fiercely loyal to her friends and family...but in the event of the upcoming zombie apocalypse, she won't hesitate to use them as human shields. She loves her job as an author, and claims writing is the most fun she's ever had while wearing her sock monkey pajamas. She also enjoys gardening, cooking, and adopting abandoned curbside furniture to refurbish into treasures. Diana published 6 award-winning books with a traditional NY publishing house before going rogue with Indie publishing. 10% of the proceeds of every book she sells is donated to different organizations that serve those who are in need, both people and animals. Di loves to hear from her readers.
