From the outside looking in, David Bradley had the perfect life, a highly successful internet business, a beautiful home and a gorgeous wife. So why wasn’t he happy? David never had time for anything but work and his wife, Mary, had suffered long enough for it. That’s why, on this Christmas Eve night, David thought the best thing he could do for Mary was to let her go. He still loved her; was still attracted to her but just didn’t have the time to give her the attention she deserved.
Mary was at her wit’s end. Nothing she did could elicit any emotion from David. She could have run around the house naked and he wouldn’t have even noticed. She would give up everything – the house, beautiful clothes, luxury cars – to have the old David back. The man she fell in love with, that could make her laugh and make her body burn with desire. If she could have one Christmas wish, it would be to have David’s heart again.
Just as David starts to reminisce about past Christmas’, imagine to his surprise when he finds Jolly St. Nick before his eyes. Santa introduces himself as Nick; he then proceeds to scold David about his treatment of Mary. To show David what their life would be like without each other, Nick takes David on a “Scrooge” journey to the past, present, and future of David and Mary’s separated lives. While Nick is escorting David through the time-space continuum, Desiree, otherwise known as Mrs. Claus, teaches Mary the art of seduction and the way back to her husband’s heart. But will a little magic, time travel, and furry red handcuffs be enough to bring David and Mary back together?
CHRISTMAS MAGIC is a funny and entertaining twist to your average Christmas story. You may never look at Santa Claus the same way again! Marianne LaCroix has written a fantastic story of love redeemed with a touch of magic. This is a great story to unwrap at Christmas or any other time of the year!

David and Mary Bradley
have been married for seven years. The first three years they had
talked about having children and all the things they would do when he
was successful. Then four years ago his internet business
took off. Now David is so busy he has no time for anything but work.
As he sits staring at the fireplace he realized that he couldn’t
remember the last time they made love. It isn’t Mary’s fault, she’s
always telling him to come to bed, but he always wanted to get a little
more done. Sitting here on Christmas Eve he decides that
the best gift he could give her would be a divorce so she could find
someone who can make her happy. After all his treatment of her over the
last year, he was sure he had already lost her love.
Mary is so tired of being alone. All she wants is the husband she used
to have. She misses his kisses and loving. No matter what
she does, she can’t get him away from his computer. Maybe
this Christmas things would be different, maybe she can get David’s
heart and attention again.
Mr. and Mrs. Claus have decided to help David and Mary with their
Christmas wishes. Love should never be wasted.
Christmas Magic
is a magical story that you will love from the first page. It’s a
modern day “It’s a Wonderful Life” with hot, satisfying and sensual sex
scenes. Marianne LaCroix does an eloquent job of showing
that sometimes what is important at this moment is not always what the
most important thing in your life really is and the reader lives it
through David and Mary. Ms. LaCroix’s ability to weave a great story
always amazes me and I haven’t read one yet I didn’t love.
I highly recommend this story for anyone who either wants or still
believes in magic.
