Bittersweet — Dyanne Davis

Three novellas ranging from sweet and sassy to steamy. There's a bit of sci fi that involves Vulcan, my first ever demon. I enjoyed stepping out of my element and writing his character. Now to give you just an overview of the three stories:

SANTA BABY
In keeping with the lighthearted and magical feel of Christmas, Santa Baby, takes that magic and weave a web of love, lust and tingles around Kiera Blakely and Christopher St. Nicholas Brown.

What if Santa was real? What if your whispered dreams to him were heard?
What Christopher and Kiera have in common are mothers who have been lifelong friends with one goal in mind, to see their children married...To each other.
There's just one little problem: Neither has any interest in their mother's fix-ups.
What does Santa, two meddling moms, and a string of bad dates have in common? Could it possibly lead to love?
When Christopher and Kiera meet is it just a coincidence? Or is it a bit of magic? And the ground rumbling beneath their feet, what of it? Magic or the real deal?
Christopher and Kiera are in for a Christmas they will never forget.

When the physical turns to an attraction, Tanya and Imran must decide if it's worth giving up their dreams to pursue a life that will bring pain.

Vulcan
Vulcan has a talent for making any woman scream out with intense pleasure. Then again he should. He's part pleasure demon. Giving pleasure to thousands of women is but a small part of who Vulcan is.
For a decade Vulcan has teamed up with a band of do gooders who are out to save the world. As long as their plans don't interfere with his, he doesn't mind lending the humans a hand.

Bodie is a demon hunter. The thing she hates the most happens to be the thing she loves the most. She can't help but wonder if her feelings would be different if she were the only woman Vulcan gave pleasure to. For the sake of humanity and her heart she's forced to rein in carnal desires as well as the desire to pierce Vulcan's heart with her blade.
