Saved For Me

Lars is an undercover cop investigating the dirty deeds of a powerful crime lord. Complicating matters is Lars's innocent new neighbor, who may as well have a target on her back in this seedy neighborhood. Whether she wants it or not, she's under his protection now.

Wendy is a poor college student who's been on her own for some time. When she takes out an online ad looking for babysitting work, she finds herself in a dangerous predicament. But the one person who shows up to help her might be even more dangerous to her virtue than being held captive by an evil kingpin.

Warning: This gritty Christmas-adjacent story has everything on your list: possessive alpha, steamy insta-love, a holiday-themed happily ever after, at least one virgin and tacos. Wait, the tacos ... that was me, Abby. ANYWAY ... get ready because Lars and Wendy are going to fill your stocking with all the HEA goodies!
