Everyone was cheerful, but I was reminded of the one thing that I didn’t have, family. I had more than enough of everything, except the one thing that mattered during the holidays. All of that changed though, when I met Cara. She was smart-mouthed and not afraid to tell me exactly what was on her mind. Paired with an incredible body and eyes that called to me, she was just what I was looking for. Before I even knew I was looking. Our kisses were electric and I wanted more. Cara was reluctant at first, because of our professional relationship. But nothing was off limits to a guy like me. I am Nick Sampson; Billionaire business man and the biggest playboy in the city. I always get what I want. This year, all I want for Christmas is Cara. CHRISTMAS PRESENT She was a present that I was dying to open. Watching my friend fall for his wife was hard to see. They were so happy. It made me realize that something was missing. The women in my life were just temporary and I was looking for something more concrete. But finding that special one was hard. Then I met Celia and all of that changed. Her smile was soft and her mouth was sassy. She was everything that I was looking for in a woman. I just had to convince her that I wasn’t the man she thought I was. She was my Christmas Present from the universe and I wasn’t going to mess it up this time. I had to make her fall for me and all I needed was one chance to get my hands on her. I was going to make her scream until she was hoarse. Then there would be no running. She was going to be mine. But she did leave and I was going to need a Christmas miracle to get her back. Celia would be mine once more, wrapped up with a bow.
