Wrapped in Paradise

Brentley is spending the holiday with her parents, as well as her spoiled, pretentious, and rude siblings on an island. She's always tried to be courteous to others, but her sister, and eldest brother mock society, treating people beneath them-even herself, and her middle brother get the brunt of their unpleasantness. However, she never expects to walk in on her sister belittling a group of guys, and when Brentley stands up to her, kismet ends up running interference. Lake decides that this year, for Christmas he's going to have some fun in the sun with his buddies.
Since his friends uncle owns the resort, they agree to do some odd-and-end jobs to help him out. As he, and the guys clean up one of the resort's suites, a mean-spirited female disturbs them, scolding them for being loud. But she's not the one who captivates him. No, that'd be the beauty putting in her place. She's the one who catches his eye. With some matchmaking from Brentley's mom, the two end up spending some time together where their instant attraction turns into a budding romance.
Karma is giving them a promising gift-each other. Attention: Previously published in the Santa's Naughty Helper volume 2 Anthology
