Worth the Wait

When Tate promises his niece Addie he'll get a book signed by her favorite author, he never expects to end up in a line four blocks long with sleet coming down around him. It's three days until Christmas and he's cold and miserable, but Addie will be devastated if he gives up. A cute guy who offers him an umbrella is just the encouragement Tate needs to stick it out, especially when Brandon brings him something hot to drink. But the signing ends before Tate can get to the front of the line, and Tate is sure he's ruined Christmas for his niece. Luckily Brandon gets him in to see the author, who happens to be his mother. A simple thank you isn't enough for Tate, and neither he nor Brandon wants to end things there. For two men unused to such an instant mutual attraction, the Christmas season just got a little more merry. A story from the Dreamspinner Press 2015 Advent Calendar package "Sleigh Ride".
