Depends on Who's Asking - Lani Lynn Vale


 


It was the night before Christmas, and all through the house, not a creature was stirring…nope. No. Nuh-uh. That’s a lie.

The moment that Caro wakes up, she knows that she’s not alone.

One thump-thump from the living room and she quickly moves into action.

One 9-1-1 call later, and she’s ready to defend herself.

Only, she gets more than she bargains for when she steps out into her living room and comes face to face with a living, breathing nightmare.

And isn’t it just fitting that the man that saves her by coming down the chimney with a large black gun in his hand is named Saint Nicholas?

***

It seemed like the start of a bad joke.

Saint Nicholas comes down the chimney on Christmas Eve night, but he isn’t there to bear gifts. He’s there to take out the trash.

When he lands on his silent feet, he has no other choice but to put himself in harm’s way.

One look at Caro’s terrified face, and he can’t stop himself.

He steps in just as the bullets start flying, saving the damsel in distress and taking a bullet to the shoulder for his trouble.

But one thing he can say is, heroes always win the girl.

And Caro is the best Christmas miracle of all.

 

 








Depends on Who’s Asking is the twelfth and final title in the Swat Generations 2.0 series, featuring Caro and Saint.

Saint is an enigmatic hero who’s story I couldn’t wait to read.  Saint is a member of the KPD Swat team, and a protector with a big heart.  He’s reserved, quiet and a loner who’s been used to his own company since childhood.  Saint doesn’t trust of give affection easily as it was missing from his life in his early years.

Carolina ‘Caro’ is intelligent and independent, and surrounded by a loving family and friends.  She’s the daughter of Michael ‘Saint’ Perez and Nicole ‘Nikki’ Pena who appeared in Coup De Grace and the cousin of Booth and Bourne who had their stories told earlier in this series.

The chemistry between this pair is undeniable and I thoroughly enjoyed their interactions and playful banter.

Caro and Saint’s story is a fun, engaging read with plenty of laughs, which is just what you need during the stresses of the holiday season.
