The Billionaire’s Christmas Baby

BLURB:
An
Entangled Christmas Classic …
Jackson
Pierce didn’t make his fortune entertaining every half-cocked idea, especially
one involving diaper changes. Not even the cute brunette who links him to the
baby in her arms can crack his icy heart.A baby on the doorstep is the least of
Hannah Woods’s problems—she has to find the baby’s uncle, or the child will end
up in foster care. She sleuths her way to the reclusive CEO’s doorstep only to
find six feet of holiday sexy—and a door slammed in her face. But when Jackson
comes around and urges they marry for little Emily’s sake, Hannah finds herself
falling for the jaded billionaire and wishing for a holiday miracle of their
own…

EXCERPT:
“Look, you can spend the night here.
Leave in the morning when the storm is over.”
She paused and went back to
fruitlessly wiping off the windshield with one arm, while clutching a round
container like a football under her other arm. He spotted a Christmas wreath
attached to the front bumper of her car. He tried not to groan out loud at the
absurd ornament. He had never actually met anyone who went to the trouble of
decorating their car for Christmas. She was working on her side windows, still
ignoring him. Stubborn was the last thing he needed right now.
“Well, we both know you can’t get
anywhere with this weather tonight.” He felt the ice pellets drumming against
the back of his neck like a bunch of nails. She continued to pay no attention
to him. Enough was enough. He walked over and grabbed the scraper from her
hand. She glared at him and yanked it back.
“I’m not staying here. You’re mentally
unbalanced.”
“What were you thinking coming here
alone, at night? Obviously you intended on staying.” He tried to pry the
scraper out of her hand again, but it was as though that giant red mitten was
super glued to the damn thing.
“Stop being a bully. I didn’t think
it would take me over six hours to drive up here. I never planned on staying
here, so stop flattering yourself. I don’t like you. I don’t trust you. So
leave me alone and let go of my brush!”
She yelled that last part and he let
go, his hands up in the air in a surrender motion. He wasn’t going to beg her
to stay here. Jackson watched as she fell backwards into a mound of snow. A tin
flew in the air and what looked like cookies fell out. Uh-oh.
“My cookies!”

Victoria James always knew she wanted to be a writer and in grade
five, she penned her first story, bound it (with staples) and a cardboard cover
and did all the illustrations herself. Luckily, this book will never see the
light of day again.
In high school she fell in love with historical romance and then
contemporary romance. After graduating University with an English Literature
degree, Victoria pursued a degree in Interior Design and then opened her own
business. After her first child, Victoria knew it was time to fulfill the dream
of writing romantic fiction.
Victoria is a hopeless romantic who is living her dream, penning
happily-ever-after's for her characters in between managing kids and the family
business. Writing on a laptop in the middle of the country in a rambling old
Victorian house would be ideal, but she's quite content living in suburbia with
her husband, their two young children, and very bad cat.
