Mathias Blackstone is either Seattle's own version of Scrooge or 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 woos Jacqueline, the more he begins to suspect...that Jacqueline Randell is his Christmas wish, too!
