Author: KC Hart
Publisher: KC Hart
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 227
Book Description
If Katy Cross can’t clear an innocent mother of a crime she didn’t commit, Christmas will be canceled for one special little boy. Skeeterville’s annual Christmas in the Park nativity scene is the holiday event of the season, but things turn more murderous than merry when a stranger is found face down in the straw, fatally stabbed with a broken shepherd’s staff. The only evidence points to the victim’s battered wife. With nothing else to go on—the sheriff makes the arrest, leaving the woman’s little boy homeless—right as the Christmas festivities kick off. Nothing about the dilemma makes sense, and Katy Cross realizes it is up to her to find the real killer before the holiday is completely ruined. Join Katy, along with her best friend Misty, and husband John, as they attempt to solve this Christmas crime before Skeeterville’s favorite celebration is brought to a screeching halt, leaving the town anything but merry and bright. As always, this Christian cozy mystery is free of sex, gore and foul language and full of fun, small town holiday spirit.

Christmas and romance are in the air... It's December 23rd and while everyone else is rushing home for the holidays, workaholic Leesa Oliver is dreading switching on her out-of-office for the festive season.

So together, they draft an unexpected Christmas contract: They'll spend half of the holidays with each other's families, pretending to be a couple. Leesa knows the insufferably good-looking Cary will make her Christmas more bearable, but what happens after the last of the mince pies have been eaten...?
