JR Thornton needs to learn how to be spontaneous, because living according to lists and schedules makes him a very dull man. He wants to add a bit of cheer to the children of the local orphanage, and decides to dress up as Santa to deliver gifts. However, his trip isn't as quick and easy as he anticipated. JR encounters Phaedra, a wood fairy, during his visit and discovers it's not the children who've been misbehaving, but Santa Paws.

Phaedra and JR are a creative couple with the ability to warm up any cold winter's night with their style of lovemaking. The story isn't just laced with arousing scenes. Lena Austin's teaches us about the importance of forgiveness in Gingersnaps: Santa Paws. While Phaedra had ample reason to be angry with JR, she didn't let that stand in her way of making him pay a pleasure penance. And JR knew just how to get down on his knees to beg for forgiveness. I'm hoping there will be more about this couple in the near future, and I plan to add Ms. Austin to my list of must read authors. I won't ever be able to smell a pine cone again without thinking about this story. Gingersnaps: Santa Paws is a holiday story with an erotic paranormal twist that is sure to please readers of the genre.
