    About this ebook

    After grieving over the death of his partner for a long, lonely year, Matt is finally starting to feel the need to pursue love again. Andy, an A-List model just back from Milan, longs for someone special to spend his life with but for the time being, sets out to find the hot guy he tried to pick up the year before from the local Christmas tree lot. The magic of a snowy Christmas Eve may prove that Saint Nick’s not the only one who can ring in the Yuletide—sometimes you just need a hottie from St. Barts.

      I magine a sticky, early August morning, around three o’clock. It is dark, the moon blocked by clouds, no streetlights, a siren in the distance, medics running to a heart attack. Imagine a man out on a bike or walking a sick dog, or maybe a woman who

      Jolly Old St. Barts - Joel Skelton

      Jolly Old St. Barts

      The deeply tanned handsome hunk charged out of the azure water. A bright-white banana hammock, leaving little to the imagination and plenty of expectation, performed its envied duty with a tease. Pausing on the sun-bleached sand with the ocean swirling in the background, the hunk raised his muscled arms to the sun, showing off gorgeous, dark tufts of hair. Then he turned, paused, and sauntered down the beach, his curvaceous, naked ass mesmerizing as it shifted from side to side.

      Startled out of his lustful trance by a fat, lazy snowflake making a direct hit on the tip of his nose, Matt glanced around the tree lot. Large flakes were beginning to cascade down all around him, their plump, white bodies changing colors as they passed by the swooping strings of Christmas lights outlining the lot. Reluctant to say goodbye to the smokin’ hot video he’d been watching, he pocketed his phone and hurried into the makeshift plywood shelter. He glanced down at his watch—it was already past five. It wouldn’t be much longer, he thought as he pulled his phone back out and fired it up.

      Wait… go back to the site with the über handsome dude. The one with those dreamy bedroom eyes.

      Matt backed up his search until he found what he’d been looking for: St. Bart’s Hotties. He had no problem remembering where to navigate, and sure enough, his hottie was waiting patiently for his return.

      Hello, Bart! My name is Matt. A sleepover? Sure, I’d love to!

      Page after page showed the model in various swimsuits and poses both on the beach and off. Matt found himself gravitating back to one photograph in particular. It wasn’t the most revealing picture in the collection, but it was the most satisfying. There was something so familiar about that handsome face. Had he seen the model featured in a magazine?

      The memory swooped in out of nowhere—there was a guy last year on the lot who took his breath away. He had eyes like the swimsuit guy’s. Matt remembered hating himself for days after—Emile had only been gone for a month.

      This photo featured the model wearing a red Speedo and a white muscle shirt, lying on the wet sand. His body language invited Matt to snuggle up close. Closing his eyes Matt tried to imagine what it would feel like to be wrapped in the model’s warm, powerful arms. For now, fantasies like this were all he had. They were baby steps toward a process he still couldn’t bring himself to initiate.

      Emile would be mad if he knew I was lonely and, because of his memory, not doing anything about it. He would never require this.

      Matt was only starting to buy into this notion that life could move on. He knew this was important. Friends had begun to encourage him to start dating.

      But it seems so soon.

      Only a short year separated him from tragedy. His life had been shattered when he lost his partner of four years, Emile,
