About this ebook

Cash Evans knows exactly what he wants for Christmas. Too bad he can’t have her.

The infamous tattoo artist’s been watching geeky Bailey Cooper for months, but that’s all he’ll ever do: watch. Bailey’s too sweet, too smart, too good for the likes of him, and he knows it. So Cash keeps his distance… until a Christmas miracle makes him Bailey’s boss.

 

Socially awkward Bailey learned long ago that men just aren’t worth the hassle. Take her new boss, Cash: he’s a brooding beast who avoids her like the plague, but he also fixes her plumbing, helps the homeless, and offers Bailey a place to stay for Christmas.

She’s never met anyone so confusing—or so impossible to resist. And the more Bailey learns about Cash and his demons, the more she thinks it’s time to stop fighting.

Warning: this 50,000-word holiday romance features an alphamellow bad boy hero, a strong, geeky heroine, a naughty office flirtation, and a guaranteed happily-ever-after. There’s no cheating and no cliff-hanger. Enjoy!

Ratings and reviews

I love Talia Hibbert’s writing: her exceptional prose is modern, lyrical, and utterly flawless; the dialogues are fantastic and always sound so very genuine. The characters are fabulous: Cash Evans has adopted the persona of a grouch, but in fact he is extremely guarded. He is hopelessly smitten with Bailey and is adorable in his infatuation. Once again Ms. Hibbert has created a female character I can cheer for, I can identify with; I would want Bailey for a BFF. She is intelligent, self-assured, comfortable in her sexuality, but has serious doubts when it comes to relationships, as does Cash. All the characters are exceptional; who could forget Cash's fabulous mother! MERRY INKMAS is sexy, emotional, witty, and all-around fabulous. Talia Hibbert is the real thing!

Beautiful story! I was saving it up for my flight and it was worth it! I was crying (secretly) in the dark over these two. I hate spoilers so I won't say but please take the time to read!

A very heartwarming gut feeling story very beautiful written. Thoroughly enjoyed reading this story.
