A Very Bossy Christmas by Alexis Winter

4.0

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?
