CHRISTMAS IS FOR BAD GIRLS

the long version

"Elm Books presents a full Christmas Stocking of stories for all fans of romance fiction! In these six tales, some very different bad girls -- actually good girls at heart -- indulge their most sensual fantasies while seeking, and finding, true love. In "A Very Chunky Monkey Christmas," M.M. Ardagna shows that ice cream is good, but there are far tastier treats. In Yvette Franklin's irreverent "Noisy Night," a sexy starlet finds that a hospital maternity ward is the most romantic place to be on Christmas. A newly-met couple does much more than kiss in Jess Alynn's "Mistletoe in Minnesota." In her action-packed story, "A Partridge in Pear Treacle," M.K. Tournes gives us larceny, secret identities, a high-stakes chase, and family reconciliation along with a solid dose of passion. A grieving Victorian gentlewoman's dreams come true in Edith Elton's "The Mad Hewitts," and in Lily Callahan's "Sprig of Holly," a brilliant Shakespearian actress must play the role of her life for a chance at lifetime bliss. All these stories show the true lesson of Christmas romance: that loneliness can be conquered by the redemptive power of true love. We think you'll fall in love with these smart, assertive heroines and heroes who don't have to be monks to be gentlemen. We hope this collection sparks a few Christmas fantasies of your own!"--Amazon.
