Review: Secret Santa by Amanda Tru

Description:
It was time for Hailey Rhodes to admit the truth: things were not going well. After losing her job as a teacher, she finds herself broke, unemployed, and tricked into accepting a date from a department store Santa Claus. When new opportunities and new love interests present themselves, will Hailey choose a career and a man she's always admired, or will she wait for the identity of her Secret Santa to be revealed? 
My Review:
I love a secret identity romance! Hailey is an elf at a department store. She loses a bet and is tricked into going on a date with Santa. He doesn't tell her much about herself, but as time goes by, she does get to know him little by little--at least, she learns the important things about him, especially how he treats and interacts with others. When she is laid off, she finds another job and a possible new love interest. 
Hailey goes on quite the journey to discover who her Secret Santa is. There were parts that were funny, embarrassing, darling, and maddening. She's a tough girl who is really looking for a break and she doesn't let these setbacks keep her down for long. Santa is a great guy! I predicted who he was, but it was still fun to see if I was right, because doubts kept popping up. He is kind, compassionate, and totally romantic.  
This is a darling, Christmas romance for readers who enjoy some fun.
Content: no language or violence; mild references to religion (Christian); kissing and one scene with a man forcing his kisses on a girl. Clean!
