All I Want For Christmas
All I Want For Christmas
“It's a few weeks to Christmas and all Mira Jones just wanted from Santa that Christmas, was a husband. All her life as a nurse, Mira had saved other people's husbands and helped reunite families. So she wondered why she should not have one of her own. She had had enough of her mother's endless nagging, and it won't hurt to fall in love. Or so she thought. James Carter was every lady's dream man. Tall, handsome and the crazy rich CEO of a software game company. Only problem he had was his suicidal intuition. Fate had made Mira his nurse and he would stop at nothing to get her out of his way to achieve his one goal- death. But what happens when Santa has other twisted plans?”
