Secret Santas Holiday Collection book blitz & Giveway
Giveaway is at the bottom of the post.
Book & Author Details:
Secret Santas Holiday Collection
Includes: Calista Fox, Erin Quinn, Mary Leo
Publication date: November 2014
Genres: Adult, RomanceSynopsis:
Kissing Kris Kringle
In the spirit of giving and paying it forward, all of the author’s proceeds for Kissing Kris Kringle will be donated to The Animal Welfare League, an amazing organization dedicated to saving animals lives and working to improve the way they are treated and regarded by society.
Kris Kringle is just an average guy living in the tiny town of North Pole, Maine where Christmas isn’t just a holiday—it’s a way of life. But not for Kris. He might be named after the big guy in red, but Kris is more Scrooge than Santa.
Until he wakes up from a night of partying with his friends to find himself in possession of a Santa suit, a toy bag and a puppy. Kris soon discovers that he’s been relegated to Santa’s naughty list and there’s only one way to get his name removed….put on the suit and spread some cheer.
Lucky for Kris every cloud has a silver snowflake and his quest to get off that list lands him in the arms of the woman he’s been lusting after for years.
It takes a little magic, but Kris is about to get everything he didn’t even know he wanted for Christmas.
Naughty St. Nick
‘Tis the season for Christmas miracles…
Having landed himself on Santa’s Naughty List, Nick Santos is given a chance at redemption. Granted, he’s tasked with some daunting challenges—pimping Santa’s ride and fixing the town’s holiday bling in the once year-round Christmas Capital of the World, North Pole, Maine. But playing Secret Santa comes with some unexpected perks, like finally catching the eye of the woman who sparks his deepest desires, Vixen White.
Vixen has no idea what’s come over Nick this holiday season, but his good deeds around town help her to remember the magic of Christmas, long forgotten. And his sexy grin and a searing, stolen kiss under mistletoe have her wishing her dream of being Naughty St. Nick’s one and only will finally come true.
All she has to do…is believe.
Romancing Rudy Raindear
Rudy Raindear thought he’d left North Pole, Main in his rear-view mirror. Now, after several years, he’s returned to convince his beloved grandfather to retire and sell his struggling bakery, Sugar Plums – the linchpin in a potentially lucrative real estate deal – great for Rudy, devastating for the town.
But all is not what it seems in this magical Christmas town, especially after Rudy lands on Santa’s Naughty List. Suddenly Rudy’s nose is turning red for the tiniest of white lies and the one girl he wanted to impress, Jenny Bells, is on his case for trying to close Santa’s favorite bakery.
What’s a guy to do?
Start baking and just maybe Rudy can save the bakery, and convince Jenny that sometimes, being a little naughty, is oh-so nice.

EXCERPT:
He opened his bag of muffins and pulled the second one out, snagging doggy bagel number two for the puppy as well and tossing it down. Holly watched him suspiciously as he took a big bite. With a grin, he offered it to her.
“Want some?”
She almost smiled. “I mean it,” she warned. “If I hear any complaints, I’m going to….”
She trailed off and he sat calmly, eating his muffin and drinking his coffee.
Finally he prompted, “What? What are you going to do to me, Holly?”
He hadn’t meant it to sound so suggestive—okay, maybe he had—but he and Holly had been circling each other since junior high. Somehow they’d always managed to avoid connecting. He’d gone away to school and by the time he’d come back, she’d gone and gotten married for about a week and a half to some dick she’d met at Boston University. He’d met the guy when she’d brought him home. Kris hadn’t liked him on sight.
But as she stood there now in her boxy red sweater that tried to hide all her lush curves, her straight skirt that covered most of her shapely legs and those sensible heels, Kris wanted nothing more than to change the status quo between them. Except he was stuck in this damned Santa suit and who could take a man dressed like Santa Claus seriously? Especially when said man had been cursed with a name like Kris Kringle in real life?
As if she’d heard his thoughts, she shifted and a faint blush crept up her cheeks. “This is a bad idea,” she said. “I think you should take your muffins and your puppy and go home, Kris.”
“I’d really like to do that Holly,” he said. “But I can’t.”
She narrowed her eyes and leaned toward him. He got a whiff of perfume that smelled so good he wanted to wrap an arm around her and pull her closer. Hell, he wanted to wrap both arms around her and pull her right onto his jolly, old lap.
She frowned. “Are you drunk?”
“Nope.” Not anymore. He was stone cold sober now, like it or not.
His disclaimer seemed to do little to lighten her mood. She said, “You’re not on our payroll. You’re not covered by our insurance. If something happened… If someone tripped on the way up to see you. If you fell out of your chair—”
Kris choked on his coffee. “If I fell out of my chair?” he repeated.
“It could happen.”
He laughed and dammed if that ho, ho, ho didn’t boom out like fireworks on the Fourth of July. All around them people who’d been bustling by, wrapped in their own thoughts, faces strained with the burden of a holiday season without any cheer—all of them stopped and stared.
“Jeez,” Holly said. “That was impressive. But it doesn’t change a thing.”
Actually, it did. Because in that instant, Kris once again had a glimmering memory from the night before.A voice, deep and merry, telling him he’d been a very naughty boy and that it was time to make amends. Disturbed and unsure now if it had been real or an alcoholic brain burp, Kris tried to follow the echo of the voice to its source but came up blank. In a town like this where holiday cheer lurked in every corner, everyone had a story about seeing Santa Claus. Some years the jolly fat guy was spotted daily, others only a time or two. But Kris could name at least a dozen people off the top of his head who claimed to have had conversations with Santa.
That didn’t mean he believed a damn one of them, though. Only kids and dotty old women believed in that crap.

THE OTHER PLACE by Carol Arnall
Gripping supernatural mystery, which follows the struggles of a young woman to overcome severe childhood trauma, has inspired its readers to face up to – and conquer – their own demons.
Chrissie James is a troubled soul. Her father deserted her before she was born and her stepfather, Alf, is a jealous man who inflicts terrible mental and physical abuse on Chrissie and her sister, Babs. Chrissie feels trapped inside her own head and is wracked with chronic fears, including claustrophobia. As a result, she is a very lonely child, with the sole exception of her imaginary friend, Amy. With Amy for company, Chrissie slowly begins to put her miserable childhood behind her, growing older and leaving school to find work. But still her fears and her nightmares remain and Chrissie even starts to suffer from random panic attacks.
One day, as a young adult, Chrissie notices a sign advertising a hypnotherapist. On their first meeting, Kitty, the hypnotherapist, immediately recognises Chrissie’s distress and suggests that she may have been tormented in a previous existence. By regressing to that past life, Chrissie hopes to find the source of her problems. While hypnotised, she finds herself living the life of a girl named Emily, who also has an abusive stepfather. Chrissie begins to realise that her imaginary friend, Amy, may in fact be more significant that she could ever have imagined, and could hold the key to helping Chrissie face up to the secret history that haunts her.
The Other Place is an engaging and suspenseful supernatural novel, beginning in 1950s Birmingham and charting the life of its damaged heroine Chrissie over the course of several decades, as she battles to isolate and overcome the fears that plague her. The Other Place has built up a terrific fan following, reaching number one in the Amazon Kindle Best Seller list for Supernatural and Reincarnation titles. Many of Chrissie’s challenges and conditions are inspired by the author, Caroll Arnall’s own experiences, having been blighted by claustrophobia, and at times, sleep disruption and panic attacks. In fact the act of writing this book became therapeutic in itself for Carol, who found that her anxieties began to disappear as she worked with her complex characters through their own healing processes. Readers too have praised The Other Place for inspiring them to confront their most profound problems; many women who have suffered domestic abuse have written to Carol to thank her for helping them to finally vanquish their most painful memories.
About the author
Carol Arnall was born and raised in the slums of Birmingham, where the early chapters of The Other Place is set. Arnall read tarot cards, the crystal ball and practiced psychometry until 1987 when a road traffic accident left her severely injured. Unable to work away from home she dedicated her time to writing, at first recording the many ghost stories she’d collected over the years as a psychic. After having a series of articles published in local newspapers and magazines, Arnall found the confidence to start writing books.
Her first title, Mysterious Happenings, was a collation of local ghost stories, which was followed by four other non-fiction books. In 2007, Arnall began writing fiction, and has since released five novels. Carol Arnall lives in Staffordshire.

Guest Post
Prom Stories and the Idea Behind Crashing PromI know I’m not the only girl who loves prom stories. That’s obvious by the fact
that prom stories show up all over the place in TV, movies, and books. There’s just
something magical about that high school dance. Even the guys I’ve talked to about
prom have a story about it. I find that interesting. Most guys I know now could care
less about things like dances. Still, if you ask them about their prom some of them
have really strong thoughts about it, especially if their date hooked up with another
guy. Eek! Drama!
Prom is usually one of the go to places for things to happen in YA books. That is why
I wanted to write a NA book with prom at its center. It’s a little different and to me
that sounded interesting.
So, I started to think about my own experiences and my prom story. I went to my
prom with a friend. It was just okay. I actually remember talking to my friend in the
bathroom about it and how prom had been overhyped. She agreed with me, which
surprised me. She was there with her ex-boyfriend, who she totally kept making
out with, so in some ways her night was actually going way better than mine even
though she didn’t think it was the perfect magical night either. In the end my date
and I did have fun, but it was just alright. I really wish I could have gone with a guy
I was head over heels for. Then it would have been amazing. I wanted that prom
moment. Heck, I’d still like it. I think everyone planning for their prom wants that
So, to me, it seems like you’d want the same things from your prom, no matter what
your age. You’d want the dress, the shoes, the limo, and the totally amazing hot
date. I even googled more prom stories just to see other opinions and experiences.
There’s fake proms for adults thrown in Los Angeles. You literally pretend you’re
going to prom. I also found some news articles about a retirement home having a
prom. See? You’re really never too old for prom!
So, I decided. Crashing Prom was going to be about how my main character, Avery
Rylee, got to her prom and all of the fun things that go with it, even though she was
twenty-four and well past prom age. It’s a prom story, but it’s about the journey to
the prom. Maybe that’s why prom is so huge in our minds. It is the last dance of high
school. It’s the end of an era, a celebration of it really, since it’s usually just weeks
before graduation. Our high school experience was the journey to it. It’s all about
getting there and, of course, having the best night ever!
