Originally featured in the Sin & Snowflakes anthology, this expanded edition of A De Luca Family Christmas Carol includes lots of new scenes---and the long-awaited happily ever after for reader-favorite Nerissa.
Christmas is a time for tradition, but in the De Luca family, nothing ever goes according to plan. As past regrets and future hopes collide, Sal and Ilaria must rediscover the heart of their decades-long love, while their daughter Nerissa faces a future she never thought she could have---with a man strong enough to stand beside her.
Emotional, steamy, and full of mafia family fire, this holiday novella delivers laughter, love, and a very De Luca kind of Christmas.
