About the book
All I want for Christmas. "Identical twin boys Zeke and Zack wished for only one gift from Santa this year: a new mum! But convincing their love-wary dad that their new music teacher, Miss Davis, was his destiny and sent by Santa, wasn't as easy as they'd hoped"--Page 4 of cover.
This magic moment. "For Ryan Swan, who'd vowed never to give her trust again, master of illusions Pierce Atkins was the last man to whom she should give her heart. Especially since he was planning a death-defying stunt he might not even survive. Yet despite everything, when she was with Pierce, all Ryan's defences seemed to vanish"--Page 4 of cover.
