  Could an unexpected gift change your life?

  They call me the Grinch, and they’re right; I hate Christmas.

  So why am I volunteering to help with the charity toy drive? I’ll tell you why, Marlee ‘Oh so sexy’ Adams

  As soon as we crashed into each other, I was done for.

  Her ass. Her eyes. Legs that go on and on.
