Chloe Thompson isn't happy that her tall testosterone and attitude-ridden husband had taken another dangerous DEA job and is leaving soon. The hunkie Sheriff Sawyer Thompson only wants to provide for his "surprise" future daughter by taking on extra jobs. Caring for his asthmatic wife is uppermost in his life.

Missing her husband, Chloe begins finding small mysterious gifts around the house, but both sisters deny being the culprits. With Sawyer gone, she still can't believe that it isn't his doing. Calling her sister Maddie and Tara to take her to the Christmas party, neither agreed to chaperone nor transport the 8 ½ month pregnant stubborn woman. As a last resort, their friend Tanner and his fiancé Callie agree even with an impending snow storm arriving at Lucky Harbor. Chloe didn't expect "the bean" to cause her trouble and she only wanted to spend time with others and not alone, fearing her husband had grown tired of her and didn't want to be tied down. As Chloe soon finds out, Christmas surprises are a time for renewal and understanding, with love for another.

MERRY CHRISTMAS, BABY is a Lucky Harbor short story that is sure to delight you. I have read many works by this author and am always entertained by her creativity. It may be short, but filled with amusement and emotions throughout the pages. Jill Shalvis is quickly becoming one of my favorites.

SUMMARY

SEASON'S KISSES . . .

Wild child Chloe Thompson can't believe how much things have changed. She still can't get enough of her sexy husband Sawyer, but he seems to prefer working to impending fatherhood. So tonight, a very pregnant Chloe is escaping her troubles at the town Christmas party.

Sheriff Sawyer Thompson hopes surprising Chloe at the party will give him a chance to set things right. But as the snow begins to fall and the wind rages, he wonders whether he can make it back in time. While mother nature conspires to keep Sawyer and Chloe apart, an unexpected arrival will require them to kiss and make up . . . and ring in the happiest holiday Lucky Harbor has ever seen.
