Rome Tyler, successful computer game designer, preferred to be alone. If he wasn't around people, he couldn't embarrass himself. Driving home before a winter storm, he stops to help someone out of a tree.

Mari Adams hadn't planned on getting stuck when she climbed into the tree to rescue what she thought was an exotic bird. If Rome hadn't rescued her, she might have been up there forever. When he winds up with a mild concussion, she feels obligated to take care of him.

The weather turns ugly, stranding them together. Mari and Rome find it hard to keep their thoughts and attraction hidden. They both have reasons, valid reasons, for not getting involved. Will the magic of Christmas bring them together?

A wonderful anthology by talented authors, Nicely Naughty brings the beauty and wonder of Christmas to life. Of the three novellas, Jingle's Belle is definitely my favorite. It has a tenderness that the others lack. And the epilogue gives the reader a new respect for Santa. Ms. Aames is a magnificent author with a magical gift. Ms. Harte's masterful weaving of the carol Twelve Days of Chrismtas left me smiling. And the interplay between Mari and Rome was sparkling. I didn't want the story to end. The most lighthearted of the three, Santa Claws had me laughing from start to finish. The by-play between Alec and Giselle was only part of the magic. It was the little details that turned this novella into magic. Make room on your must-read-Christmas list for Nicely Naughty. It's not to be missed.
