Enjoy this steamy Scottish romance series by award-winning romantic comedy author Evie Alexander… She's ready to deliver the best Christmas ever… What Zoe MacGinley really wants for Christmas this year — yes, even more than getting to play Mary in the nativity — is a baby. And she's prepared to go to any lengths to get one, even if that means hunky hubby Rory suspending her upside down by the ankles after performing his matrimonial duties... Preparations for Christmas at Kinloch Castle start early — as in January — but with a Hollywood house invasion and a village nativity on the cards, this year is going to be extra stressful. And that's before those two blue lines appear on the pregnancy test. Rory's determined to be a good dad, unlike his own. He'll do anything to make the pregnancy smooth for Zoe, but no matter how hard he tries, everything keeps going wrong and his life turns into a real nightmare before Christmas. With one chance to make their last Christmas as a couple memorable, Rory throws everything into making the village nativity one that Zoe will never forget. However, Baby MacGinley has other ideas and might just end up being the real miracle this December. Christmas Games is a laugh-out-loud, fabulously festive, grumpy-grinchy sunshine, steamy, small town romantic comedy novella, with all your favorite characters from the Kinloch series and a guaranteed happily-ever-after – Perfect for fans of Lucy Score, Pippa Grant, Kayley Loring, Tara Sivec, Lauren Landish, Lauren Blakely and Nicole Snow! It can be read as a standalone but is best enjoyed after the other books in the series. Please note! A version of this story was first published in the Holiday Disasters series written by me and Kelly Kay. Then, it was entitled ‘No Way in a Manger’, and was one of the novellas in the book Christmas Chaos. I have made some minor changes to this iteration, however it is still substantially the same work.
