Phoebe Fox, media manager for a rock band and single mom to the surprise baby she conceived last Christmas, is spending this holiday season tracking down the Santa who got her pregnant and giving him the chance to know his son. And if she gets to replay the single best night of her life when she finds him, well, that's even better. Archer Fade, factory owner and sometime Santa Claus impersonator, is so focused on improving the culture at the toy factory he inherited that romance isn't on his radar, even if he can't get the runaway bride from that amazing night a year ago out of his head. When Phoebe finds Archer and a chance meeting makes her think he has a gorgeous model girlfriend, she leaves her hopes of a repeat rendezvous behind in favor of helping him be a dad to their son. So what happens when she finds out he's actually single and just as interested in repeating their one night as she is? And what will it mean when she learns he has a few naughty surprises of his own?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Santa Claus, Satellites, Cellphones & Sinkholes in Spring Hill we see into the lives of a small Tampa Bay suburb and the lives of many of its residents. The author delves into many of the problems that confront it's residents almost daily, including such things as a large generation gap between many of the communities senior citizens and the millennial generation. Such things as cultural issues, religious issues, political issues; previous and present-day wars and revolutions and what they meant in the past and may mean in the future and government agendas pertaining to the enormous gap of wealth between societal groups are just some of those problems. Another larger problem turns out to be why it is that so many struggle in the computer generation while others do well only because they are so well-versed in the use and knowledge of satellites, cellphones and the digitally computerized gadgets that will make or break many a company, corporation and human being in the future. And, finally, the truth of what Christmas has been, is and should be takes center stage and if, and how it is that Santa Claus figures into this equation, by how much, and why and is it only children who can believe in Santa Claus?

The event is a success, but whilst Santa is handing out presents in the fairy-lit grotto, a murder is being committed in a dark corner of the garden. Juno discovers the body of Bob the Blacksmith, found clutching a horseshoe decorated with a sprig of elder. Suspicion falls on Bob's long-suffering wife, Jackie, and on Don Drummond, with whom Bob violently quarrelled in the past.

Download or read book Santa Claus written by Gerry Bowler and published by McClelland & Stewart. This book was released on 2011-07-27 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An entertaining, often surprising look at the life of the world’s most influential fictional character. He is the embodiment of charity and generosity, a creation of mythology, a tool of clever capitalists. The very idea of him is enduring and powerful. Santa Claus was born in early-nineteenth-century America, but his family tree goes back seven hundred years to Saint Nicholas, patron saint of children. Intervening generations were shaggy and strange — whip-wielding menaces to naughty boys and girls. Yet as the raucous, outdoor, alcohol-fuelled holiday gave way to a more domestic, sentimental model, a new kind of gift-bringer was called for — a loveable elf, still judgmental but far less threatening. In this engaging social and cultural history, Gerry Bowler examines the place of Santa Claus in history, literature, advertising, and art. He traces his metamorphosis from a beardless youth into a red-suited peddler. He reveals the lesser-known aspects of the gift-bringer’s life — Santa’s involvement with social and political causes of all stripes (he enlisted on the Union side in the American Civil War), his starring role in the movies and as adman for gun-makers and insurance companies. And he demolishes the myths surrounding Santa Claus and Coca-Cola. Santa Claus: A Biography will stand as the classic work on the long-lived and multifarious Mr. Claus.
