A Very Kidnapper Christmas

Melody James is a disaster magnet: kitchens catch fire, bathrooms become hazards, and every new job seems to end in costly chaos. Her brother's best friend once promised to keep her safe, and after her brother dies, he feels permanently bound to that vow. Protecting Melody has become a full-time responsibility made harder by the fact that she cannot stand him. Convinced that ordinary supervision is no longer enough, he decides the safest solution is to kidnap her before the Christmas lights create the next catastrophe. This forthcoming holiday novella combines enemies-to-lovers tension, obsessive protection, ridiculous mishaps, darkish fluff, and explicit spice.
