Just for Christmas night

the long version

Pro football publicist Martha Blue has something to prove. To protect the image of the image of the Las Vegas Slayers--and stay employed--she has to shed her party-girl reputation. So no more mistakes. No further scandals. And absolutely no falling for the one man who can give her everything she wants and nothing of what she needs. Danger and desire never mixed will for undefeated prizefighter Joaquin Ryder. A friend of the Blue family, he is a man who knows his boundaries. boundaries he has secretly crossed only once before. Now he is back in Sin City to train for the biggest fight of his career, he can't afford to let a sexy distraction like Martha put him against the ropes. Revisiting their sizzling past is something he isn't willing to risk--until a steamy yuletide encounter, where for just one night, they will surrender completely.
