Synopsis
A sexy category romance from Entangled's Brazen imprint...He's not who she expected, but he's exactly the man she needs…
When Chelsea Wayne drags Santa into a supply closet for a little office party nookie, she assumes the man in the suit is her on-again/off-again coworker boyfriend. Instead, it's Rafe St. Sebastian, a man known for his hard-driving ways in business as well as the bedroom--and, kill her now, the brand spanking new owner of Las Ventanas--who grants her naughtiest Christmas wishes.
So much for her reputation, not to mention her career.
Rafe needs to close three acquisitions to prove to his father he's ready to take the helm of St. Sebastian Enterprises. A hot interlude in a supply closet after deal number two seems like the perfect illicit Christmas bonus. Unfortunately, when that "bonus" becomes the key to the final deal, he finds himself back in bed--so to speak--with Chelsea, and after their steamy tryst, he's not interested in keeping things professional…
5-Stars Review
I absolutely loved this book, especially the beginning was too good, after that I simply couldn't put it down. I loved Chelsea and Rafe and their encounters are always so funny and romantic. This is one of the best romance novels I've read in a while and in addition to that story is passionate as well as humorous. It's a perfect package. If you are looking for romantic comedy with lots of chemistry then this one is definitely a good read.Chelsea has never done anything as daring as dragging Santa into supply closet..... and it turns out that she mistook him for someone else. Now she is embarrassed and fearing the worst. Which happens but not in a way she anticipated. Suddenly unemployed and heart broken she moves to another city, she wants to change her life completely. That is her plan...
Rafe has not been able to get Chelsea out of his mind. She was an asset to his newly acquired hotel and more than that he likes her. So now he must try and get her back. But he is not looking for anything serious or long term, she must know that... They both enters with minimum expectations and yet end up falling in love...
