Substitute Santa
A stand-in Santa. A determined elf. And a mall Christmas Village on the brink of disaster.
The holidays are full of surprises, and polar bear shifter Wade just got hit with a doozy: he needs to take over as the mall’s Santa.
Wade is used to the peace and quiet of his woodworking shop, not the non-stop chaos of the Christmas Village. (How many times can one guy listen to the same Christmas carol?) At least it’s only for a few days … but the second he meets harried elf Mira, his fated mate, he knows he wants this part to last a lifetime.
Mira needs her holiday bonus to help her aging parents, so she’ll put up with anything—even spending weeks in a costume that makes her stick out like a sore thumb. Even the personal enmity of the Christmas Village’s finicky, overbearing manager. Even—shudder—all-day carol-oke.
The one bright spot in her day is Wade, who is sweet, funny, and devastatingly handsome. Mira can’t help being swept off her feet.
But between all her worries and all her boss’s ill-conceived publicity stunts, can she and Wade actually make it to a merry Christmas?
