Grayson Brooks. Technically, my boss. And Altman Advertising's resident playboy.

He's infuriatingly charming, dangerously dominant, and the only man who makes my carefully constructed professional facade melt into a puddle.

My safest bet is to ignore him.

Focus on the work.

Keep my distance.

Simple, right?

But Grayson doesn't do simple. He's freaking everywhere—his low, commanding voice in meetings, the sharp edge of his smirk when I push back, the intoxicating scent he leaves behind like a dare.

And when he leans in close, when his touch lingers just a second too long, my pulse gives me away.

He's a risk I can't afford. A distraction I don't need. A temptation I shouldn't indulge.

But late nights at the office blur the lines. Stolen glances become smoldering stares. Professional discussions turn into whispered promises.

He challenges me. Provokes me. Commands me.

Makes me question everything.

This tension between us is a powder keg, and every moment feels like a match.

But if forbidden is a flame, I'm about to get burned.

Tricks, treats, and steamy tension collide in this standalone workplace romance. If frenemies-to-lovers and festive heat are your thing, prepare for a wickedly fun ride—complete with a sticky-sweet HEA you won't forget.
