Book excerpt: Sara sits at home wrapping Christmas gifts alone on Christmas Eve while her kids lie asleep and her husband is off having another affair. Her quiet night takes a surreal turn when an unexpected visit from a tall, muscular man named Nick, claiming to be Santa Claus, emerges from her fireplace, offering a present. At first, Sara's principals keep her from accepting the gift, but when she sees the size of the package all rejections disappear. After all, she's always been nice. Maybe it's time to try being a little naughty.
