A Fool's Gold Christmas

Book excerpt: No.1 New York Times bestselling author Susan Mallery welcomes you back to Fool's Gold, California for a classic heartwarming tale for the holidays! The unrelenting cheer in Fool's Gold, California, is bringing out the humbug in dancer Evie Stryker. Christmas miracles don't happen, at least not to her – and this year seems like no exception. She won't be seduced by the bad–boy charms of her brother's best friend. Even when she's recruited to stage Fool's Gold's winter festival, she vows to do as promised, then move forward with her life. Jaded lawyer Dante Jefferson is getting used to the backwater town he now reluctantly calls home, but he's unprepared for the attraction that sears him down to the soul. Evie his best friend's sister is off–limits – unless he's willing to risk his heart. Dante has always believed that love is the most dangerous force in the universe, but that was before he had to reckon with the magic of a certain small town, where miracles do seem to happen.
