The Novella:Win a Date with Secret Santa (Curvy Girls' Bachelor Auction #11)The Author:Kate Tilney The Guest:Kate Wilhite The Synopsis:What could be more fun than going on a Polar Express-like train ride with a toymaker at Christmas? Apparently, everything. While Fraser Douglas may be in the business of creating toys that bring joy to children worldwide, the man himself is clearly a big grump.No problem. I’m not looking for a love connection when I bid on a date with him at a charity bachelor auction. I just want to get the free toy that comes along with him. A toy that just so happens to be at the top of my niece’s Christmas wishlist, but is sold out at every store.Neither Fraser nor I knows what to expect when we go on our date. But as we spend hours together on board a magical train, it becomes harder to deny the spell that seems to be cast around us. I may just discover that under his grumpy exterior, he has a heart of gold.Show Notes:- The 5th annual 12 Days of Boobsmas- A few favorite tropes (and a few we don't)- The amnesia-secret baby-Christmas romance we're waiting for...- What's your favorite holiday memory or tradition?
