"What do you want for Christmas, little girl?"

Christmas is the loneliest time of year for Constance Bradwell. As a foster child, she never had the joys of family so important to this holiday. She is enduring an endlessly excruciating fundraiser on Christmas Eve, when the Santa of the evening asks her what she wants for Christmas. Drawn by his rich voice and warm hazel eyes, she whispers her deepest wish in his ear. She wants to belong to someone, to wake up in that person's arms, knowing she is important to that person. Scandalized by her frankness, she leaves Santa before he can reply.

As Constance prepares to leave the party, she is shocked to discover that the Santa is someone she knows from her wild high school days -- when she confused sex with love and had a "reputation". Sam Whitney never took advantage of her then, for which she was grateful. Divorced now, Sam intends to be the man for Constance. He knows she is more than the girl everyone else saw in high school. Will she let him into her guarded heart?

Sam aims to make Constance his SNOW ANGEL in reality, to dominate her in the bedroom as a true alpha male is wont to do. He demonstrates his aptitude for bondage and knots, while showing Constance more tenderness than she's ever known before. But there is more than dominance to their relationship. Ms. Hill shows the love that two lonely people can generate together to create a very unique Christmas experience.

Summary

In her misspent youth, Constance used sex as a shallow substitute for the intimacy and love she craved. Fifteen years later, she whispers her deepest wish into Santa's ear at a Christmas benefit, only to discover he is someone who was part of that unfortunate and embarrassing time of her life.

Mortified, she plans an early exit from the party, but Santa has different ideas. Sam Coble always wanted to get to know the girl behind the reputation, and now that she is an accomplished, independent woman, that determination spurs him to action. Constance is going to discover this particular Santa has a soft spot for naughty girls. He plans to give her everything she ever put on a Christmas list...and then some.
