Emberly Faust first sees Santa Claus when she's just a little girl. HER Santa, however, comes in the unexpected form of a tall, dark, and handsome forty-something. Young Emberly has only one request of Santa that year; for her disenchanted parents to stay together. "Santa" has to explain to Emberly that not even HE can force two people to love each other.
Years later, Emberly is a married woman with two children of her own when one fateful Christmas she discovers her husband to be cheating on her. In her devastated state, she sees the dubiously dapper Santa Claus for the second time, only this time, she's not so easily rid of the charming enigma.
Can the man, Steve Coleman, achieve a true holiday miracle by defrosting Emberly's broken heart and saving Christmas for her and her two young children?
"Happily Ever Christmas" is a story full of Magick, intrigue, family matters, Elves, adventure, sex, and of course, Love. After all, Santa works in mysterious ways. A tale to warm even the coldest heart this Christmas.
