This short story is about Damon and Kate and their Christmas to remember. This is a second chance, enemies-to-lovers romance centered around a wealthy boss and his assistant.
Kate flowers have had one hell of a morning. She is running late, her car breaks down, and her boss Damon Wells threatens her job.
Damon is a jerk, but he doesn't do it on purpose as he really likes her. An accidental bar meets up, and soon he will go home with her to her family. Just wow.
This story gets both Damon and Kate's perspectives. The banter in this book is fabulous, funny, and sassy, with a little bit of flirty. This book gets steamy as this couple discovers the fire between themselves. Will they last, or is this just for the holiday weekend?
The ending of this story is so sweet and unexpected. I love the happy ending.

This reminded me a lot of Beautiful Bastard with the office setting and the asshole boss. But I really liked this! Damon was so cute finally taking a chance on his feelings.

I wasn't sure about this book. I read another book with the same title and had a bad feeling. Because I loved the other one so much. But I wasn't disappointed

This was the most ridiculous book ever. This book was missing so much. It seemed to me like the rough draft where the author had all these ideas for a book that could have worked with a better author. Also weird that we would root for a guy who treated her like absolute crap. My head is just boggled with this train wreck. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME READING THIS BOOK!

Felt like a hallmark reading with a little spice. Moved too fast, didn't feel the chemistry as it explained.. Just not quite my cup of tea.. DNF.

Solid 4⭐️. I read this quickly and have to say this was my favorite holiday read this year. I loved the premise of a boss and employee traveling over the holidays together and falling for each other. It did not disappoint!

Enemies-to-Lovers + Boss-Assistant + Fake Dating at Christmas
This is a fun, quick, spicy read.
Damon's tone is off-putting in the first chapter from his POV but is less grating as the story progresses.

Cute Christmas romance with the prickly boss!
-M/F
-enemies to lovers
-no cheating
-HEA
-"office romance"
-fake relationship
This was a super cute quick read. Took me about 2 hours to read. Had some laugh out loud moments, the steam was perfect, and the ending was sweet. Not a lot of angst, just an easy flowing story that was pretty hot. Perfect book to cleanse my palate on. I've been reading lots of dark romances/bully romances, so this was perfect to give me a break from the heaviness of those books.
Id be interested to read more from this author.

Kate is having a particularly bad day with her car breaking down, her boss Damon calling her and chewing her ear off before she can explain why she is running late. Giving her 10 minutes to get into work before she is fired results in a taxi ride using all her available cash and a leaking coffee pot. She faces off with her boss who simply tells her to clean up and get the reports for the meeting. Sneaking out at lunch to get her car to a garage, she finds that it has been towed and needs to be collected by 5pm to get it to the garage before her trip home to Christmas.
Damon fell for Kate approx. 15 minutes into her interview when she called him arrogant. That was three years ago and he has adopted the mean approach to mask his true feelings towards her. Seeing her in the bar after a bad day she is already buzzed when she starts ordering double shots. Finding out just how much he ruined her day and how she is stuck in Chicago for the holidays due to her car problems. Agreeing to take her home he ends up inviting himself to stay – especially when he finds out her potentially cheating ex will be there with his new girlfriend.
A push and pull festive romance with the fake date, getting on an ex as well as discovering more about yourself along the way. But it’s all just a fake holiday fling – right?
