Sexy Silent Nights
Cara Summers

It never should've happened: club owner Jonah Stone was the best friend of Cilla Michaels's boss. But one look into his stormy gray eyes and the security specialist was all-in: a mind-blowing one-night fling in his sumptuous suite. No talking. No strings…No such luck.Because it turns out that Cilla's not the only one who's developed a taste for forbidden fruit. When Jonah starts receiving threats from a vengeful ghost of Christmas past, he hires Cilla on as a bodyguard…and makes no secret about how close he wants her to be. Of course, that makes him more forbidden than ever.Still, a girl can only resist so much….

Dear Reader,

I love writing stories set at Christmastime, but this one was especially fun because it allowed me to do a whole “list” of fun things.

First of all, Sexy Silent Nights allowed me to tell Jonah Stone’s story and wind up a trilogy about three friends who met in their early teens at the St. Francis Center for Boys. (You may remember Gabe from Take My Breath Away…and Nash from Tailspin.)

Acting on a compelling and instant attraction, supper club owner Jonah Stone and security agent Cilla Michaels agree to indulge in one sexy night together. Any more is strictly forbidden. And utterly irresistible…

Telling Jonah’s story also allowed me to revisit a city I left my heart in from my very first visit—San Francisco.

Last on the list, and certainly not least, is that writing this story allowed me to meet and share with you an amazing calico cat named Flash who is a resident at the Furry Friends Shelter in Barrie, Ontario, the Blaze Authors’ first Pet Project. I hope you love her as much as I do.

May all your Christmas wishes and forbidden fantasies come true!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Was CARA SUMMERS born with the dream of becoming a published romance novelist? No. But now that she is, she still feels her dream has come true. And she owes it all to her mother, who handed her a Harlequin romance novel about fifteen years ago and said, “Try it. You’ll love it.” Mom was right! Cara loves writing for the Blaze line because it allows her to create strong, determined women and seriously sexy men who will risk everything to achieve their dreams. When she isn’t working on new stories, she teaches in the writing program at Syracuse University and at a community college near her home.

To my nephew Nick and my new niece Kristen.

May all your future Christmases together be merry!

And especially to my great-nephew Luca—who celebrates his very first Christmas this month.

I love all three of you!
