"You've never kissed anyone under the mistletoe then?" he asks, keeping his voice low. 
There are literal sparks flying in the air between us right now- I knew I was attracted to him at the tree farm but now that I've gotten to actually know him a bit better, and now that he's standing so close to me, that attraction has seemed to intensify.

"Well, I think it's probably bad luck to break tradition...."

So when her dad calls her and begs for her help on their family tree farm leading up to the holiday, Sarah reluctantly agrees to visit, hoping she can escape before the holiday. But Mistletoe is not like Sarah remembers. It seems like there might be something fishy happening to the local businesses, including her father's. And the people aren't like she remembers, either: her high school boyfriend, Luke, is more handsome than ever, and there's a mysterious and sexy new cowboy in town, Mac.

Secret Santa ✔️ by idielopez

"You had no right to do that," I snap, trying my best to out walk him. His chuckle was loud behind me and his hand griped on my forearm, stopping me. Something about his warmth gave me chills all over my body. Something I don't think I ever wanted in the first place. Especially from him and especially now. "Yes I did, and I still do." His hard grip around my arm loosened, and snaked up to lock his fingers through my hair. Oh Momma, what is happening? Being this close to him has been happening way too often for normal. Still, I couldn't break away from this close contact, I was frozen, shocked. "What makes you think that?" My question hit him with humor, and instead of fully responding, he leans his face closer to mine. The smirk on his face stayed once he noticed the affect he had on me. "Because," he whispers out pressing our bodies together. "I'm your Secret Santa," he licks his lips as if he's hungry, then continues, "I can give you anything I want to give you." His free arm wraps around my waist, and he lifts me up during the action before pressing our lips together. The main character is Kimberly. She's an accident prone person who wants nothing but to enjoy her winter. Her friends want the best for her after a terrible break up they witnessed. Every year they all hold the traditional Secret Santa. Somebody from the group believes that they are what Kimberly needs. This is about Kimberly and her crazy winter story about her not so Secret Santa.
