No one ever said working with Santa was all reindeer games, and North Pole isn’t a place of wonder and amazement...until it is. It may not be the holidays, but magic is definitely in the air.

Working in Santa’s post office wasn’t an easy job. Each letter had to be read—even the ones that dug a hole in your heart and left shadows of the pain they imparted. But every elf needed a job if they were going to afford things like food and heat and a place to read a good book.

Every elf except Santa’s brother. He’s wild, charming, and totally unrestrained by the monotony of life...or so go the rumors. He’s totally not the type of man I would take a second look at. At least, not until an accident he causes forces me to and my world heads down a path I hadn’t thought possible.

What should a good elf do when the bad-boy brother of the big man himself comes to town and burns down the rumor mill with his smile, his kindness, and his heart? The spare may just be more vital to the Claus name than anyone expected. And I might be falling in love with him.

My rating:

Zira is having a really bad day, well, life. Getting her heart broken on a daily basis thanks to the letters children in need send to Santa, the big man not appreciating the hard work...Now, to top it off, Santa's playboy brother is back in town on his motorcycle and the crowd he attracted just made her drop her candy...Oh, and he turns out to be her mate. Yay!


Formulaic and without any real conflict, except for the heroine jumping to conclusions. I found the hero's loneliness to be a bit too on the nose and didn't appreciate Santa's "about-face" (he seemed much nicer in Peppermint Prancer.

It was a quick read, though, hence the boredom didn't get time to fully settle in thanks to the formulaic and predictable "plot".
