    The last thing I was expecting was that Santa could be so freaking hot! My ovaries went into overdrive as I watched this hunk of a man hold babies and bounce kids on his knee while they babbled on about all the gifts they wanted for Christmas. But what really captured my heart––and attention––was when I had to help pose a disabled girl on his lap. The instant my eyes landed on his huge package, I couldn’t look away! They say Santa only comes once a year but if I have my say in the matter, he’ll be coming over and over again. Oh, and did I mention his twin who’s equally as attractive? This might be the hottest Christmas ever!

     I was not in the Christmas spirit, and thought nothing could make it worse until the Murphy twins walked through my door. Hot, arrogant, and extreme douche bags who had been nothing but jerks to me back in the day, I couldn’t handle their cocky attitudes as they flashed their cash around and acted like they owned the place. The had learned once that they couldn’t have me. But this time around things would be different. I thought I’d wake up Christmas morning with an empty stocking, but it ended up double stuffed.
