Josie Riviera

A Portuguese Christmas Josie Riviera

Love can come softly, like holiday snow. Or sweep you away like a riptide.

World-class surfer Krystal Walters would have appreciated the beauty of her surroundings-a quaint cottage in a fragrant Portuguese olive grove-if a wipeout hadn't changed all her holiday plans.

Now, suffering the dizzying aftereffects of multiple concussions, she's determined to make it home to Rhode Island for Christmas, even if she has to defy doctor's orders. Except those orders are being enforced by Adolfo Silva. A man as arrogant as he is ruggedly handsome.

Spending every waking moment working to make the family olive farm a success, Adolfo barely has time to savor a traditional Feliz Natal. But the moment Krystal disappears under a mountain of sea water, his focus shifts to a sun-kissed spitfire with golden hair, sky-blue eyes, and a will as immovable as his own.

Keeping her safe is his first priority, but this bold, courageous woman's wings won't be clipped. Before they can plant the seeds of a future together, he'll have to convince her that spending Christmas-and maybe every holiday to come-with him isn't the end of the world.

Because she's become the center of his.
