CandyChristmas is my favorite time of year-lights, cookies, carols, the whole deal. I never imagined it would also land me in the middle of an office scandal. Thanks to my best friend signing me up for a "Christmas Waffle" charity auction, I end up on stage, mortified... and bought for thirty-five thousand dollars. By my boss.Asher Monroe is supposed to be untouchable-New York's most eligible bachelor, brilliant CEO, and way out of my league. One date was all it was meant to be. But snowstorms, stolen kisses, and late-night confessions blur every professional line I swore I'd never cross.AsherI don't lose control. Not in the boardroom. Not in life. Until Candy Hart, my assistant with the pink hair and sass I can't ignore walks straight into my carefully ordered world. Buying her at the auction was reckless. Keeping her close is dangerous. Because the more time we spend together, the harder it is to remember that office romances are forbidden.But Christmas has a way of rewriting the rules. And Candy? She might just be the best risk I've ever taken.
