Upon a Midnight Clear

By Samara King

Carter James was the only present Drea Michaels wanted to unwrap this Christmas. She has only a few steamy nights to seduce the man she's loved for years. Drea will have to play dirty if she wants to break Carter's relationship rules: No dating friends. What good are rules, if they can't be broken?

Carter has resisted every temptation imaginable since meeting curvaceous Drea. He's not the kind of man who believes in forever, but when Drea pushes him past his sexual restraints, one touch may not be enough!

Samara King

Samara King is the author of sexy contemporary romance and romantic suspense. Writing romance has been woven into Samara's world since her days of sneaking to the back of the library in grade school...of course, at some point, there was studying (usually after the end of a chapter.) When not dreaming up her latest hero who may or may not resemble the likes of Morris Chestnut, Channing Tatum or the latest MUST-HAVE-HIM archetype, Samara can be found jamming out to music, sipping on her favorite drink: cinnamon coffee or if the mood calls for it -- because let's get real -- often life requires Moscato while watching This Is Us, shopping for plants she cannot kill, and dancing. Currently, she writes for multiple publishers, including her own imprint Crave. Previously, Samara cohosted SoundNOff, a poetic format for poets and spoken word artists and hosted InCharacterN10, a former showcase for authors on Blogtalkradio.com/samaraking. Her well-received poetry collection, The Ebony Kryptonite, preceded her poetic EP, Stripped Barefoot, a sultry mix of poetry and spoken word, which went on to reach #20 in Chicago’s Top 40 on Reverbnation in September 2013. Samara resides in the Midwest, mixing city life with her family...and characters who never sleep.
