On My Merry Way (ePub)

Tatum may not have put "sexy stranger" on her Christmas list, but Santa knows what a good girl needs to make her holiday complete.

When Tatum tells her overbearing mom that she isn't coming home for Christmas, Mom doesn't take it so well. But when Tatum's sister breaks the news to their mom two days before Christmas that she wants to bring her new girlfriend home for the holidays, Mom has the worst reaction of all.

Tatum's inner elf rises up and she decides to create the brightest, happiest, pinkest, glitteriest, most loving holiday ever-in her one-bedroom apartment over a Christmas-themed bar. Who cares? It's not where you spend the holiday that matters; it's who you spend it with. Hooray! Tatum's holiday spirit is back in full force.

In fact, she's feeling so cheery that when a stranger accidentally sends her a text to say he's on his way, she kindly texts back to let him know he's reached the wrong number. Sure, she's had a little wine while wrapping presents, so she maybe says a little more. And when he replies? Well, it would be rude not to respond.

Quicker than she can stab herself in the knee with a pair of scissors, she's got a full-fledged flirty text convo going with some random guy who might be a doctor, might be a serial killer . . . might be the perfect addition to her holiday guest list.

And if she happens to extend an invite to a drag queen Mrs. Claus and the vampire throuple from across the street? Hey, the more the merrier, right? 'Tis the season!

Light the fireworks and pour the champagne! The naughty list is ready to make merry!
