When Alicia Bardell comes up short for the holidays, she regretfully takes the one job she can get on short notice: working part-time as Santa’s little helper at the local small-town mall’s Christmas display.

One big problem… this year’s Santa?

He’s her “ex,” aka her one-night stand—and her best friend’s older brother.

One other small problem—she’s pregnant.

With Santa’s baby.

She’s thought about telling him, but he seemed like a creep. Or at least, he left a sour taste after the one night they spent together. At best, just another charming no-good who’d vanish the second things got hard.

Besides, she’s strong enough to raise this baby on her own.

But watching him in the red suit being patient with crying toddlers, making nervous kids laugh, treating every child like they matter? It doesn’t match the jerk she’s built in her head. The more time they’re forced to spend together behind the scenes of the Christmas display, the harder it is to pretend there’s nothing real between them. The way he’s good with the kids… well, maybe even Santa deserves a second chance.

Will Alicia overcome her fear of commitment and trust, and let her baby’s father into her life?

Second Chance for Santa is a steamy small-town accidental pregnancy Christmas romance with a cinnamon-roll mall Santa, his sister’s best friend as the guarded, pregnant elf, a messy secret-baby reveal, and explicit on-page heat—wrapped up in a cozy, snow-dusted, guaranteed Happily Ever After.
