I've spent holidays in hell. Okay, maybe not quite hell, but some really scary versions of heck. I've been sick, alone, with the wrong man, with a sick man, wanting to be alone, with family, without family, with crazy family, you name it. In Don't Say No, Amber starts the holidays on a low note. She has to deal with a drunk on Thanksgiving and ends up hanging out with her cousin in a bar on Christmas Eve, playing pool with a creepy guy. But don't worry. Amber is a smart, tough cookie and manages to bring her life around the way she wants. My hero! How about you? Have you had those holidays that just about drove you over the edge? To enter my contest, just leave one word in the comments telling something you like about Christmas. I'll start. Music! My prize is your choice of any of my eBooks. Hop on over to the next author on the list for a chance to win more goodies and make sure to enter the Rafflecopter. Thanks so much for stopping by and Happy Holidaze to you! Mixing business with pleasure has never been so much fun
Amber’s life sucks. Her ex got her thrown out of college, then fired from her job. When she’s hired for a mystery shopping assignment, she hopes this is exactly what she needs to kick-start her life and get her back on track. Jaeger is all business when he hires Amber to check out the spa he’s purchasing. If she can help him prove that the venture will be a success, then he can build his own future, not the one his family has mapped out for him. Becoming attracted to his sexy spy isn’t part of the plan. Amber can’t see how she fits into Jaeger’s world, and he’s too uptight to ever fit into hers. Circumstances bring them together, in bed and out, but when a secret from his upper-class life is revealed, Amber must decide if she can trust him. Or is her life going down in flames all over again?

What do I like about Christmas? Well, because I'm an atheist from a Jewish family, I can enjoy this wonderful season any way I want with none of the obligations attached!

As a "searching soul" from a very Christian family, I try my best now to do like you, Suz, and enjoy the sweetness of the season without the stress. Thanks for your great comment, and have a great time with your jazz!

I admit, I like the treats (especially tamales on Christmas Eve)!

Family...about the only time we are all together and not off living separate lives.

My one word would be Family. I love having fun with my family and we always think of something in the past that was pretty funny.

Hi! Happy holidays! Thank you all for the fun!! Hope you have a blast with your family! My favorite part is spending time with my family. Its just my parents and brother, but we have a lot of fun! Especially when we used to celebrate with extended family and it always ended in fighting. Now its just us and i love it! :)

It's great when you get to spend time with people you really like, not the ones you're supposed to like. Good for you, Shadow!

Paid time off. Too bad I was sick over Thanksgiving vacation and now it looks like the same for Christmas.

Oooo, not a fun way to spend the holidaze. Rest up, watch a lot of Christmas specials on TV, read a romance book or two.
