Not So Saint Nick

Tatienne Richard Romance

Not-So-Saint-Nick
WGrier Bush grew up in a picturesque town in the foothills of the Colorado Rockies much like the ones all those made for television Christmas movies used for their backdrops. Except for her the idyllic life was ruined as a teenager and so doing what any girl from those movies did, she left the small town and moved to the big city.
Now Grier was the administrative assistant to the sexiest, and more importantly, the grouchiest man in all of New York State, maybe even America. She spends most of her time smoothing feather’s he’s ruffled and keeping him from firing entire groups of people on a whim. She could never understand her best friend Hazel’s obsession with the man. Sure, he looks good but he’s a jerk of the highest order.
Nick Santos has a secret. Not only is he the billionaire CEO of the country’s biggest confectionary company, but he is also the crown prince to the Ice Fairy Queen and to the man the rest of the world knows as Santa Claus. Family pressure and an intense resentment to his parents for putting the children of the world ahead of their own has made him a surly son of a b***h and he wears his title as meanest CEO on earth like a badge of honor. Leaving the family behind to build his empire was easier said than done though and they’re always at his back, chasing him to come home.
Losing his creative spirit a long time ago, Nick is surprised when returning his assistant’s laptop bag to her to be struck with the most delicious sense of inspiration. When the woman who for five years has kept him from umpteenth litigation issues, stays ice cold while managing to deal with her boyfriend and her best friend in Grier’s bed together is nothing short of revolutionary. Suddenly he wants to help her burn the world down one bag of prank candy at a time.
Grier returns home for the holidays only to find her ever-annoying boss is following her. When he declares he’s going to help her get revenge against her cheating exes and her best friend by posing as her lover, she knows there is no good to come of it. Yet, with her parents and sister egging the billionaire psychopath on, what is a girl to do but join in the chaos the gorgeous man is bringing to the party.
Ready to rip her stockings off her body to hang by the chimney without an ounce of care, Grier decides Christmas this year is going to be a whole lot of naughty, not an ounce of nice and maybe, just maybe, a touch of love.
