Daddy Christmas by Lucky Moon

He claims he’s the real Santa Claus.
But Santa isn’t supposed to be sinfully handsome, dominantly protective, and built like he could lift an entire sleigh—without any help from the reindeer.
I’m Gemma, a jaded bookstore worker who loathes twinkling lights and tinselly cheer. He’s Nicholas, the mysterious stranger with emerald eyes who insists he can restore my shattered belief in Christmas magic.
Our first encounter leaves me breathless—and strangely safe in his strong arms. Each moment with Nicholas erodes my defenses. Under his protective gaze and stern discipline my icy cynicism melts, revealing a vulnerable heart longing for comfort, trust, and love.
Then he drops a gingerbread and tinsel bombshell.
Will I dare to let holiday warmth and a caring Daddy’s touch fill the emptiness inside? Or will old fears shatter the fragile enchantment between us and send me back to a world without wonder? This Christmas, I must choose: cling to disbelief—or embrace the man who just might be the real Santa, and the forever love I never thought I deserved.
