Her Secret Santa

This book if funny, sad and heart-warming. Mathias Blackstone has lost all color in his life. His son Christopher died of Leukemia, he wanted to meet Jack Rabbitt but Mathias was unable to get that wish granted. So after his son's death, Mathias starts granting wishes and procuring things for people for money. He finds he is good at it, until he gets another wish from a ill child to meet Jack Rabbitt. Mathias is determined to fulfill this wish. So he gets Jack Rabbitt aka Jacqueline Randell's family PR firm Limelight International to represent one of his clients. A client by the way that nearly broke the firm in the first place. Although Mathias claims over and over he checks out his clients before recommending them, he slips up on this one, only because he is so focused on the person Jacqueline that he forgets check out this client. And gives Jacq's former cheating, stealing boyfriend Elliott Drescoll a way to blackmail her into getting money from her families firm, and lots of other people. When Mathias discovers his mistake he goes after Elliott with a vengeance. But meanwhile Jack Rabbitt draws a baby dragon on his black desk and adds to the picture each time she finds herself alone in his office. Much to Mathias' delight.

I enjoyed this book. I remember reading a story with the sister but I cannot recall title of book.

Back cover reads: Mathias Blackstone is either Seattle's own version of Scrooge of Santa Claus... Mathias Blackstone has a reputation for ruthlessness. He's in the procurement business: whatever you want--gold, diamonds, secrets--he can get! But there's another side to his operation he prefers to keep quiet: every Christmas, Mathias Blackstone procures wishes... But despite his ability to deputize for Santa, something is missing from Mathias's world, and has been since the death of his young son. Then he meets children's writer Jacqueline Randell. For one of his young clients, meeting Jacqueline Randell is a wish come true! And the more Mathias Blackstone wood Jacqueline, the more he begins to suspect...that Jacqueline Randell is his Christmas wish, too!

Mathias Blackstone is a man who has lost all the color in his life until he meets free-spirited Jaqueline Randell. Mathias procures things for people any way he can and Jaq's the intensely private illustrator/author he failed to find. He's been searching for her for a long time in more ways than, but will she forgive him for setting her up? Her Secret Santa is a heartwarming story of learning to trust again.
