Please note – Both of the stories in this collection are previously published and unchanged. Not when all the world sees is a janitor and the ballet boss’s potential boy toy. Still, one short hookup on a kitchen floor doesn’t turn Jed and Henri into a match made in heaven. But then they do, one pre-holiday evening in a less-than-one-night stand that leaves them both yearning. The chances of these two meeting are less likely than a grand jete. New York ballet rising star, Henri, just wants to dance, but his desire for top roles only leads him into the pervy artistic director’s bed. Maintenance man, Jed, might yearn for an alpha-femme guy, but where’s he going to find him in his small Oregon town? What if the man of your dreams dances into your life-and he’s a nutcracker? On a snowy Christmas Eve, love and courage meet under the influence of a most unusual fairy and Nate and Delly’s lives change forever.

Then Nate and Delly find The Fairy Shop, a mysterious store where a unique proprietress sends Delly in search of the wand that will make her brave. When Nate Hawthorne meets Asher Dane, the huge, tattooed hunk embodies Nate’s dreams – and his daughter’s nightmares. In this collection of previously published holiday romances, Tara Lain combines unlikely couples, lots of steam, deep feeling, and seemingly insurmountable obstacles with the love, commitment and touch of magic to prevail against all odds.Ī single dad who needs love.

Two steamy, heartfelt love stories in the same charming town.
