The Kid Who Stole Christmas

by Linda Stevens

Was Santa a Suspect?Christmas was Shannon O'Shaugnessy's absolute favorite holiday. The toy-department manager especially enjoyed the festivities this year-until the eight-year-old heir to Lyon's Department Store was abducted for a most peculiar ransom….Shannon trusted no one. Especially not the new store Santa. Despite his snowy false beard, padded costume and his willingness to help her find the missing child, Rick Hastings radiated raw sensuality. But his evasive actions hinted he had something to hide….Was it more than the gorgeous face and body beneath his Santa suit?

[Colleen Coughlin · Rating 4 out of 5]

Needed a "Christmas themed" book for a Summer Reading Challenge - this was a good choice. Fun, quickly moving book which is a lovely example of a Christmas romance genre. Characters you fall in love in, bright children, a romance you want to root for, redemption and all-around Christmas happy endings (no spoiler - just the genre).

This would make a fun movie for Lifetime or Hallmark!

Cute, but predictable holiday story.
