Free Christmas Romance!

Posted in Latest News, Romance on December 4th, 2024 by Cynthia Eden

I’ve got an early Christmas present for you!! My USA Today best-selling romance, ONE HOT HOLIDAY, is F*R*E*E right now!! You can snag this book at all major ebook retailers.

I had way too much fun writing this story. Danger, romance, humor…and a parade of wild elves? šŸ˜‰ Come on, that is some holiday merriment right there! Here’s the full blurb for you:

Sheā€™s running for her life. Heā€™s the safe haven she never expected to find. The holiday season is about to get HOT.

Hiding out for the holiday season in the heart of the South? Not something that Haley Quick ever expected to have on her to-do list but thenā€¦she never expected her ex to want her dead, either. Turns out, life is full of surprises. Time to deal. Haley has ditched New York for a crazy little dot on the map known as Point Hope, Alabama. Itā€™s a town gone extra crazy for the holidays, and Haley is sticking out like a sore thumb with her very much Grinch-self.

But enter sexy sheriff Spencer Laneā€¦Tall, muscled, and made with an extra dose of sex appeal, he is exactly the kind of man that Haley should be avoiding. Heā€™s charming, he looks way too good in a Santa hat, and, oh, yes, heā€™s her new landlord. The hits just keep coming. She canā€™t afford to let Spencer learn all of her secrets, a tough job since she is living with the man. No sex, though. Itā€™s purely a business relationship. Exceptā€¦the holidays in the South sure do get HOT. Or maybe thatā€™s just sexy Spencer. Usually, Haley falls for the bad guy. Itā€™s the whole reason sheā€™s running for her life. She canā€™t help but wonderā€¦What would it be like to fall for a man like Spencer?

He just got his Christmas wish.

Sheriff Spencer Lane canā€™t believe his luck. The most beautiful, fascinating woman heā€™s ever seen has just dropped into his life like a gift from, well, the big guy in red. Only the problem is that Haley seems to think Spencer is some by-the-book, nice guy. Probably because of the badge. And if she wants him to be the hero, thatā€™s a role that heā€™s happy to play for her. But the truth is, Spencer has plenty of darkness inside, too. An ex Navy SEAL, he knows how to get shā€”um, stuff done. He also knows how to be very, very naughty.

When danger threatens his Haley, all bets are off. No one is going to hurt her. No one is going to threaten her. Not in his town. Not on his watch. The nice guy will show Haley just how bad he can be.

Fake snow, a parade of wild elves, and a stalker ex donā€™t make for the merriest of times, but in Point Hope, anything can happenā€”and it usually does. Ready for a steamy story that will get you in the ho-ho-ho spirit? Settle back, curl up with Spencer, and have yourself a jolly old time.

HOLDING OUT FOR A HOLIDAY HERO – Available now!

Posted in Latest News, Romance on November 27th, 2024 by Cynthia Eden

Looking for a way to destress during the busy holiday season? I can help with that. šŸ˜‰ My new Christmas romantic suspense, HOLDING OUT FOR A HOLIDAY HERO is available now.

HOLDING OUT FOR A HOLIDAY HERO has these themes & tropes:

šŸŽ„A super protective holiday hero
šŸŽ„He falls first.
šŸŽ„Jingle my bells.
šŸŽ„Someone needs to learn the magical meaning of Christmas (hintā€”that would be our Scrooge hero)
šŸŽ„Naughty vs. nice/opposites attract
šŸŽ„Holiday hijinks
šŸŽ„Hallmark but way hotter
šŸŽ„Forced proximity/bodyguard action

A holiday romance with a dash of romantic suspense and a former military hero who is so not feeling the festive spiritā€¦

Bah humbug. Bounty hunter Jake Hale hates Christmas. He doesnā€™t do twinkling lights, festive packages, and you definitely wonā€™t ever catch him singing Christmas carols. What he will do? Track down the worst of the scum out there. The former special ops soldier makes merry by tossing the naughty into prison cells and getting a grand pay day. Ho, ho, ho.

Then a ghost from Christmas past walks through his door.

True Blakely is always at the top of the nice list. Beautiful, sweet, with an innocence thatā€”yep, he might have been tempted to destroy once or twiceā€”sheā€™s there to hire him. There have been a string of dangerous accidents in her life, and True fears that someone is trying to kill her. Not at all the sort of case that Jake would usually takeā€”he hunts down the criminals after they jump bail, not before theyā€™ve even been arrested. But one look into Trueā€™s bedroom eyes, and he canā€™t refuse. Maybe he still is a bit too tempted by the girl who got awayā€¦and surely one nice act wonā€™t kill him? For her, he can play the hero.

Heā€™ll close the case and be home in time for Christmas dinner.

Except, on the first morning of his investigation, he finds a dead body. One waiting underneath Trueā€™s glittering Christmas tree. The attacks are real, and itā€™s clear that someone is gunning for True. But Jake is on the job now, and no one is going to hurt her. His protective instincts are in overdriveā€¦and so is the desperate desire that heā€™s always felt for True. This time, heā€™s done fighting that desire. Heā€™ll finally show True just how fantastic it can be when you arenā€™t nice. Welcome to his naughty list.
