Katie Price - Santa Baby

I thought Tiffany should know that she has a half-sister. Shes Angel Summer the famous model.

With these few words from the mother who gave her away, aspiring stylist and pizza waitress Tiffany Taylors life is turned upside down.

As soon as they meet, Angel and Tiff feel as if theyve known each other for years, and before she knows it, Tiffany is working as a stylist on Angels TV makeover programme, and going out with Raul, a Brazilian racing driver who has all the girls weak with lust.

If only Angels seriously sexy bodyguard Sean could be as welcoming. Obviously he has things on his mind, like the kidnap threat hanging over Angel and her daughter Honey, but would it kill him to loosen up a bit? As everyone gathers at Angel and Cals mansion for a big Christmas celebration, Seans defences finally drop. But as he relaxes, the danger moves closer, and Tiffany finds herself in serious trouble.

Standing Out

You Only Live Once

TIFFANY TAYLOR SHIVERED in the cool night air and hopped from foot to foot to keep warm. It was meant to be June but it felt more like March, and she was seriously under-dressed in a black tutu-style skirt, silver sandals, bare legs, fingerless lace gloves, and a black tuxedo jacket. She stood out from the other girls in the line snaking outside the West End club who were all in a uniform of brightly coloured, revealing body-con dresses and fake tan, and could have given the girls from TOWIE a run for their money. Tiffanys style was more quirky and individual.

She checked her watch again. She might have guessed that her best friend Kara would be late. It was after midnight. Tiffany, or Tiff as all her friends called her, stifled a yawn. She had been up since seven this morning and had only stopped working an hour ago at her waitress job in a busy pizza restaurant.

An icy wind whipped her long chestnut-brown hair into her face, plastering it against her glossed lips. Great. She attempted to smooth it back, hoping that she didnt smell of pizza dough or, worse still, garlic bread. Shed sprayed on masses of Coco Mademoiselle, even though she was down to the last dregs and who knew when she would be able to afford a new bottle. Usually, before a night out clubbing, she would have showered and washed her hair, but tonight shed had no time. It had been a quick freshen up in the Ladies with wet wipes. Oh, the glamour

Hiya, Tiff. You havent been waiting long, have you? It was Kara, looking glossy and gorgeous in a turquoise, one-shoulder dress. As usual her accessories matched perfectly a satin clutch bag and heels, and a turquoise stone necklace. Tiffany, who had studied Fashion and Textiles and wanted to be a stylist, had given up trying to point out to her that sometimes you could be a little too matchy matchy.

Ages! she exclaimed.

I dont know why youre standing out here Im on the guest list. A man in his mid-twenties, suited and booted, and standing next to Karas boyfriend Harley, spoke up. He must be Tiffanys blind date courtesy of Kara, even though she had begged her friend not to set her up.

Oh, yes, this is Gavin, who I was telling you about. Gavin Tiffany Tiffany Gavin, Kara babbled away.

Hiya, Tiffany said, instantly deciding that Gavin was not her type. Kara had gone on about how fit he was. And he was good-looking, but he did nothing for her because he seemed so full of himself. She could tell that his clothes were expensive the designer suit and shirt, the show-off watch but those kinds of things never impressed her. Style wasnt about how much money you spent. And Tiffany especially didnt like the way he looked her up and down, blatantly assessing her attractiveness.

Cheer up, Harley whispered as they trailed behind Kara and Gavin to the front of the queue. If hes that bad, well make an excuse and leave.

Harley was the nicest, most easy-going man that Tiffany knew. Kara, who was a bit of a stunner with her petite body, huge brown eyes, long blonde hair and pretty face, could have taken her pick of the fit-looking blokes who worked out at her dads North London gym which she helped manage, but she had fallen in love with Harley. He was by no means plain, with a pleasant face, the sort you felt you could trust, short brown hair and grey-blue eyes, but you wouldnt have put him in Karas league. Though he did have two killer cards in his pack he had a fantastic body, and he was a fireman. Way to go, Kara! She was the envy of all her female friends except Tiffany, who could only ever see Harley as Karas boyfriend.

By now Gavin had reached the head of the queue and was remonstrating with the girl in charge of the guest list. She was flanked by two tall bouncers in long black overcoats. Tiffany envied them their coats; if she didnt get inside soon, there was a strong possibility that she would get hypothermia and end the night wrapped up in Bacofoil or whatever they used. So not a good look. Now she had met Gavin she had a very strong desire to go home. She was knackered; her feet were killing her after her ten-hour waitress shift. She didnt fancy Gavin, and she wasnt going to pretend to fancy him. She decided that she would make that clear as politely as possible and give him the chance to go off and find himself another date. Then at least she would be free to enjoy herself with Kara and Harley.

Well check it again! I know Im on the fucking list Im a friend of the fucking owner! Gavin exclaimed. Tiffany bridled at his tone. Shed had enough experience of obnoxious customers to know how it felt to be on the receiving end of their tirades.

Less of the attitude, mate, one of the bouncers spoke up. A Geordie from the sound of him.

And why dont you fuck off back to the North?

What a charmer! Tiffany looked at Kara who grimaced and mouthed, Sorry.

Tiffany fully expected to be refused entry after that but the girl found their names on the list and the thick red rope was unclipped from the stand to allow them in. As Tiffany walked past the bouncers, one of them, the Geordie, caught her eye. He was strikingly handsome but his dark brown eyes were full of scorn and she burned with embarrassment at being associated with a foul-mouthed tosser like Gavin.

Things didnt improve once they were inside the club. Gavin insisted on ordering champagne, even though there was no way Tiffany would be able to pay for another round. She sat on one of the low-slung black velvet sofas and wondered how soon she would be able to make her escape from him. Kara had spotted someone she knew and was deep in conversation some distance away, so could not be relied upon to rescue her. Gavin sat down next to Tiffany and draped his arm along the back of the sofa, as if he already had a claim on her. Well, he could dream on!

For the next twenty minutes, though it felt far, far longer, Gavin talked at her. He ran his own business selling second-hand computers. His talk was all about the money he had made and how great he was at selling, of his flash new flat, his top-of-the-range car. Big wow, thought Tiffany who had zero interest in the business world, or properties, or cars. She was on the verge of nodding off when he moved further along the sofa, so close to her that their thighs touched. She tried to inch away from him, but was already pressed against the arm of the sofa on the other side.
