Blurb/Summary:

Private Investigator Alex Flaherty wants only one thing under the tree on Christmas morning--a curvaceous, sexy woman. A lead on the shady lawyer he's investigating wouldn't hurt, either. When Alex is stranded during a snow storm days before Christmas, his wish seems little more than a pipe dream…until fate intervenes.

After a bitter divorce, Delilah Adams is spending her first Christmas alone and wishes for love to fill her stocking. When she gives a ride to a handsome stranger caught in a snow storm, she never imagines his sinfully delicious smile will turn her life around and give her hope for a special holiday.

Alex and Delilah find friendship and intense pleasure in one another…but can the hope of a budding relationship overcome obstacles from the past? Or will the danger that lies ahead ruin Alex's Christmas Wish?

Review:

While Alex’s Christmas Wish was grammatically correct and in parts a very wonderful read, the overall tone of the story was over the top. Instead of feeling the joy of the Christmas spirit and family, it was overshadowed with both verbal abuse and physical violence. In any other story I’d have welcomed the villainy however not for a holiday read.
