It’s the day before
Christmas Eve and gorgeous, happy, Nick Kringle is making deliveries on the
main street of the city when a car breaks down at the intersection.
Amid the seasonal
crowds and inclement weather, Dylan West gets out of his car and tries to push
it to the side of the road.
Nick rushes to help
him and comes face to face with the most delicious man he’s ever seen.
Dylan’s down on his
luck, but Nick believes in magic.
Can wishes come true?
You bet—especially if Nick Kringle has anything to do with it.
Dylan’s gaze fell on the card pulled halfway out of the scarlet-colored envelope that lay on the counter top. His mom always sent him a card and she always alluded to his single status. He succumbed to a twinge of sadness. It had been a long time since there’d been a man in his life. Sometimes in the long nights, when he lay awake, Dylan would wonder why he’d never met someone who loved him—who fell in love with him. If he had a Christmas wish, it would be to meet a kind, sexy man. He gazed out of the kitchen window at the leaden sky. He’d never had a wish come true, so it was unlikely that one would. Dylan poured coffee. The warmth from the cup and the delicious smell comforted him.
Chapter Two
The
city street glistened with rivers of red, green, bright pink, and white light
thrown there by the stores and cafés decked out for the holiday season. Rain fell
in drifting sheets as a chill wind ravaged the shoppers rushing from one place
to another, some laden with parcels, others hunched against the weather in
their winter coats.
Nick
parked his SUV in the first available space, opened the trunk with the interior
lever, and leaped out. He didn’t feel the cold unless snow lay knee deep on the
ground and even then, he enjoyed the beauty, and the way a new white fall would
change the light, way too much to complain about the chill.
As
he ran around to the back of his vehicle, the squeal of tires braking hard and
the clamor of honking horns made him spin around. In the junction behind him, standing
motionless, was a stalled car. Other drivers surged around the stationary
vehicle, making everything worse by taking space in the oncoming lanes so that
everyone crammed dangerously together.
The
driver of the offending vehicle edged out of his open car door, narrowly missed
by a small car that chanced overtaking just as the lights turned red.
Nick
cast a keen gaze over the man, registering his muscled body beneath an
inexpensive suit and his thick dark hair, pushed back from his forehead so that
the front spiked up. Nick watched the man lean into the open driver’s side door
and attempt to shove the heavy vehicle to the side of the road. The man’s pants
stretched over his hard ass and a sigh of appreciation escaped Nick. With one
hand on the wheel, and the other lodged in the gap between open door and car, the
man clearly needed help. Nick clicked the trunk of his SUV closed and jogged
over to help.
“Hi,
I’ll lend a hand,” he called to the stranded driver. The man straightened to
answer and Nick was face to face with one of the most gorgeous men he’d ever
seen. Nick never hid his emotions. They shone from his ice-blue eyes and exuded
from his well-toned body. He smiled at the man in a way he knew and didn’t care
broadcast attraction, desire—pure sex.
Apparently
unaffected by Nick’s charisma, the man gave a grateful nod. “Thanks.” He leaned
into the task of pushing the car out of the way, as the traffic lined up behind
him, and the sky opened with a fresh punishing downpour.
