Too Hot for Santa Read online

  HELENA STONE can’t remember a life before words and reading. After growing up in a household where no holiday or festivity was complete without at least one new book, it’s hardly surprising she now owns more books than shelf space while her Kindle is about to explode.

  The urge to write came as a surprise. The realization that people might enjoy her words was a shock to say the least. Now that the writing bug has well and truly taken hold, Helena can no longer imagine not sharing the characters in her head and heart with the rest of the world.

  Having left the hustle and bustle of Amsterdam for the peace and quiet of the Irish countryside, she divides her time between reading, writing, long and often wet walks with the dog, her part-time job in a library, a grown-up daughter, and her ever-loving and patient husband.
