    About this ebook

    What’s a girl to do when she finds herself held captive inside a bedroom – with the man she’s been lusting after for months – by a voyeuristic spirit on Christmas Eve? 

    Give it what it wants, of course.

    Elly Watson, Paranormal Task Force Investigator faces her most challenging assignment yet, and if she wants to free herself before Christmas morning, then she has no choice but to fulfill the spirit’s wild and wicked wishes - even if that means engaging in a fun holiday romp with her sexy co-worker, over and over again, if need be.

      Chapter One

      Bah humbug, Elly Watson mumbled under her breath, and then, with much more force than necessary, planted her booted feet on her desk with a loud clunk. When the sound gained the attention of those around her, she lifted her glass of cranberry cocktail and saluted her drunken colleagues. 

      Some office party this was turning out to be...

      Dammit, she wanted to be the one in the back room photocopying her ass, not the one who had to stay sober and man the phones. 

      But oh no, she couldn’t be partying with the others because the goddamn spirits didn’t stop haunting to celebrate Christmas like regular old mortal folks. 

      Nope.  The holidays didn’t slow them down one bit, which meant that she, after having drawn the short straw from the stack earlier that morning, was stuck with the graveyard shift. 

      If that wasn’t bad enough, ladies’ man Lucas Nichols, a.k.a. Chicago’s hottest bachelor – a man she’d been lusting after for the last six months – had also gotten the short end of the straw.  Now she had to spend
