Synopsis
Evie Cruz, a comic book illustrator, has spent months quietly crushing on the man who lives upstairs. When her apartment building throws its annual Santa-themed holiday party — mistletoe included — the excuses she has been hiding behind start to run out.
Only Santas in the Building is a short, contained romance written for Under the Mistletoe, an Amazon Original Stories collection of December romances by Ali Hazelwood, Tessa Bailey, Olivia Dade, Alexandria Bellefleur and Alexis Daria. It is designed to be read in one sitting: light, funny, unmistakably New York, and steamier than its length suggests.
