A Short Story -
Christmas is the season of miracles and Detective Tony Preston will need one if he is to stop the monster kidnapping children. With the help of a sexy crime lab tech—and a little divine intervention—he may just get his Christmas wish.
~~~
"Hey, Tony."
"What?" Tony barked, looking up from the journal. His voice softened. "Oh, hi, Macy. I didn't realize it was you. How are things in the crime lab?"
"Busy, as usual." Macy stepped into the room. "Do you need some help going through those boxes? I'm off the clock."
"I appreciate the offer, but it's Christmas Eve, Macy. Why don't you head on home?"
She shrugged a careless shoulder. "My folks are on a cruise and my brother is spending the holidays with his in-laws. It's just me, It's A Wonderful Life and a frozen turkey dinner."
Tony studied her for a moment and she glanced away, the color in her cheeks darkening. One corner of his mouth kicked up. "Then sure, I'd love some help. I've been staring at these files so long, I swear one of them levitated a few minutes ago."
Macy laughed and Tony watched her. Her smile faded. "Don't stop," he murmured. "You have a beautiful smile."
