Deadly Christmas — Lily Harper Hart

Christmas is here and the Hardy family is ready to celebrate in style. James Hardy has a big gift for his wife for their first Christmas as a married couple, but keeping her from finding out what presents he's hiding is only one of the things on his to-do list. After a job takes James out of town for longer than he would like, he expects a happy reunion with his wife, Mandy. He gets it, even though it's short-lived, and he's taken by surprise when trouble comes knocking. Someone is going to be on Santa's naughty list this year, and that someone has set his sights on the Hardy family â€" and James and Mandy in particular. James has information someone desperately wants, and Mandy is in the way when danger comes to collect. James will do anything to protect his wife, and when his own actions threaten her life, he's determined to make someone pay. Will the Hardy's get a merry Christmas? And who will be spreading their love under the mistletoe? It's all hands on deck for another Hardy romp, and laughter, love and eggnog are on the menu â€" as long as everyone survives to enjoy a magical holiday together.
