Katherine Kingston gives readers an unforgettably erotic and heartwarming gift in Gargoyle's Christmas.

Gargoyles. Fearsome, intriguing and alive. While bound to stone shells during the day, at night they can leave their shell and wander at will. It is rare for gargoyles to take human shape, something they're only allowed to do for one month during the winter solstice. This action demands they remain in their shell for an entire year afterwards, unable to leave at all. There is hope, though, for if the woman can say she loves him and kisses him while in gargoyle form, they will remain human. For Averic, the decision to leave wasn't that difficult.

From the moment he watched her help an old man with his newspaper, Tricia had intrigued him. He lived for those moments when she passed in front of his cathedral. Finally, one day he followed her home and eavesdropped on her dreams, learning exactly what she wanted from a man. When the time came, he was going to take human form. Even if Tricia couldn't handle his true form, he was going to give her one Christmas to remember.

After several disastrous dates, Tricia had given up on finding the perfect man. He didn't exist. Then one night, she trips while crossing the street and is caught by a handsome stranger. Eric was too good to be true. Wealthy and handsome, he could have had any woman and he wanted her. Even more perfect was his desire to dominate her sexually. There had to be some catch, a man this perfect was too good to be true.

To her horror, she learns there is a catch. Eric is a gargoyle and if he is to remain with her after his time is up, she must kiss him in his true form. But every time she sees him as a gargoyle, she can't move, the fear is too great.

Will they ever be together forever?

Wow! Gargoyle's Christmas is an amazing story. Kingston writes with grace and passion, infusing Eric and Tricia with life and believability. One cannot help falling in love and hoping for a happy ending. The eroticism in this tale is unbelievable, from the scene where Tricia feeds him Chinese food to the spanking scenes; it never stops. Don't miss!
