Snowbound with the CEO

Snowbound with the CEO  by Shannon Stacey

Adrian Blackstone built a million-dollar business with hard work and determination—and by remaining professional at all times. Denying his longtime attraction to his beautiful executive assistant hasn't been easy but it's necessary. She's indispensable, and he can't stand the thought of losing her if things didn't work out.

For more than a year, Rachel Carter has been quietly dreaming of all the ways she'll never seduce her sexy, buttoned-up boss. She's worked too hard to get where she is to cross that line, no matter how badly she'd like to act on her fantasies. But then a wicked snowstorm leaves them stranded in a romantic winter wonderland…

What begins as a single kiss and a few bad Santa jokes turns into a weekend full of breathless passion and hopes for something more. But with Monday comes a return to their complicated reality—and Adrian must prove that promises made are promises kept, especially at Christmastime.


Fighting an attraction as big as the one Adrian has for Rachel has been very difficult. He's wanted her almost from the moment he saw her.  Getting snowed in with her at a resort seemed like the perfect answer. He could see what else lies below the surface of his attraction to her.

Rachel has the same attraction and she's gotten good at hiding it. She can't risk it, she loves her job too much and it would complicate things! This storm that causes them to be stuck is just what she needed to get in with him.

Watching these two steam things up and then cool things off. These two have so much chemistry that it leaps off the page. I loved watching the path they took to their own happily ever after.
