Nationally Best-selling Author Carly Alexander Discusses Her Hilarious Holiday Novel "THE SECRET LIFE OF MRS.CLAUS"
This Christmas, a little red suit can make all the difference...Three women hired by Rossman's Department Store to play Mrs. Claus in Baltimore, San Francisco and Chicago are about to learn that a woman should never stop making that Christmas list. For these Mrs. Claus stand-ins, it's a Christmas where miracles happen, love is magical, and changing their lives is as easy as changing their outfits...THREE HOLIDAY NOVELLAS, THREE MRS. CLAUSES...
First up – comedy. Olivia Todd had hoped the worst was behind her after she broke her ankle, lost her chance to be a Rockette, and had to come home to Baltimore. Now the only job Liv can get is playing Mrs. Claus at Rossman’s Department Store – a nightmare gig of wrangling bratty kids alongside a biker Santa. Her Christmas wish? A “Do Over.” Fast!
Second, in San Francisco, single mom Cassie Derringer wants just one thing for Christmas: To give her son his father. When she finds a note in the Mrs. Claus suit that reads: “This suit brings luck. Go with it,” she’s on her way.
Third, it’s bah, humbug in Santaland. As heir to the Rossman’s dynasty, the only Christmas spirit Meredith Rossman feels is the kind brought on by ringing cash registers. Dressed as Mrs. Claus, Meredith can keep an eye on operations and on Nick, the Christmas-hire Santa. Something about Nick inspires her to be a better person, to wish again...and to sit on Santa’s lap.
A true Christmas buff, Carly Alexander has been decking the halls and scoping out clusters of mistletoe since she was old enough to sit on Santa’s lap and tell him absolutely everything she wanted.
Carly Alexander went to college in New York City and never looked back. She spent the better part of her twenties searching for a fine romance, both at work as an editor and after hours in Manhattan. She still loves New York when it’s lit up for Christmas, Central Park in the snow, midtown traffic when the E train is running on schedule....
She currently lives with her husband and two children in the Pacific Northwest, where she had taken up walking in the rain and teaching art literacy. She is immersed in a study of slackers and can be found doing research in local coffee shops while working on her latte addiction, one day at a time.
