A Christmas Grinch for Anya

Anya Gregg loves her new job as a paralegal at the Matthews and Gates law firm. She's made dozens of new friends since moving to the town of Dickens, including the over-extended family of her boss, Jaxon Matthews. The Barrett family has a way of drawing everyone into the loving fold.

What he can't seem to ignore, is the town's penchant for holiday celebrations, and one infuriatingly beautiful friend of the family.
