Who needs mistletoe? Most people wouldn’t think of a bad Santa case as the perfect Christmas gift. Then again, Molly Malone, office manager at Hunt Investigations, isn’t most people, and she could really use a distraction from the fantasies she’s been having since spending the night with her very secret crush, Lucas Knight. Nothing happened, not that Lucas knows that—but Molly just wants to enjoy being a little naughty for once . . . Whiskey and pain meds for almost-healed bullet wounds don’t mix. Lucas needs to remember that next time he’s shot on the job, which may be sooner rather than later if Molly’s brother, Joe, finds out about them. Lucas can’t believe he’s drawing a blank on his (supposedly) passionate tryst with Molly, who’s the hottest, smartest, strongest woman he’s ever known. Strong enough to kick his butt if she discovers he’s been assigned to babysit her on her first case. And hot enough to melt his cold heart this Christmas.
I think I might have just found my favorite book of this amazing authors. Author Jill Shalvis does it again and I must say this book had me at hello! Well, it had me at by the first page is more like it, though the cover had my attention right away. I have loved everything that author Jill Shalvis has written in the past, but this one has become my new favorite. If I'm really being honest I have loved this whole series of hers. The A Heartbreaker Bay series are ones that I know I will probably read all over again in the near future.
Don't let the page count fool you though, these are fast reads and the plot line in this story had me wanting more but the last page came too fast, like most books! This book is full of sexy men and an even steamier romance. I must say I love Lucas so much! Honestly, I could gush and gush some more about Lucas. I think I found my new book boyfriend.
I loved the twists and turns of this book just as much as the characters themselves. I hope Jill Shalvis has plans to write more of this series because I need more right away. Her writing style is something to be admired I only wish I could write like she does. The best thing about her books is I never see the plot twists coming. Which is something I don't get to say often. Though with her books I do.
If you haven't read any books from this series, it's a must! Trust me you won't be sorry. If you enjoy contemporary romance grab you a copy of this book and the rest of the series today.
New York Times bestselling author Jill Shalvis lives in a small town in the Sierras full of quirky characters. Any resemblance to the quirky characters in her books is, um, mostly coincidental.

I'm going to give Hot Winter Nights by Jill Shalvis an Ali's Bookshelf...
