It’s three days before Christmas, and Lora Weaver is hefting a body into the trunk of a car.

Not exactly how she expected to be spending her first French holiday.

But who said playing elf with best friend Camille Caron was going to be easy?

When Camille’s grandmother runs a Christmas toy drive, Lora volunteers to help and soon finds herself waist deep in more than toys. Before long, she’s ducking bats, tracking thieves, and hopping more than bars.

And all under the watchful eye of Camille’s hot PI brother, Laurent, and their charming cop cousin, François. Not to mention grand-maman—a woman with a heart of gold and a look that could stop a gal cold.

The Nearly Nixed Noël is a Lora Weaver mini-mystery holiday caper that takes place between The First Faux Pas and The Pas de Deux. But it doesn’t need to be read in order—it’s just a little peek at Christmas in the Lora Weaver world.
