A snowstorm trapped me and my billionaire boss in a secluded cabin…the perfect Christmas recipe to end up on the naughty list.
Jensen Riley is impossible, arrogant and cold as ice – the last man I wanted to spend Christmas with. But now we're stranded together, and it’s hard to remember why I hate him...especially when I catch myself staring.
His fitted suit clings to every inch of his rock-hard body, and those smoldering eyes make it impossible to look away. The crackling fire and twinkling holiday lights reveal a softer side of him I never expected.
He says I'm off-limits, that he won’t break his rules, but the way his eyes devour my body tells a different story.
I need this job. I can’t afford to cross the line either – no matter how much I want to.
Under the mistletoe, he finally makes his move, pinning me against the wall, his breath warm against my neck. It’s clear – his rules never stood a chance.
Now, nothing will stop him from claiming me – or me from wanting him to. And this Christmas, being stuck together might just be the naughtiest gift – or a heartbreak wrapped in temptation.
"She's the brightest light in my life, the biggest hope in my heart, and the greatest love I've ever known."~Jensen
This was a fun and sweet read. Add in some Christmas cheer and spice, we love that spice y'all, and you got yourself a fast moving story. I like that book cover! With that red background 'Jensen' is popping for attention.😝😍 And he gets that and a whole lot more with sassy Alyssa. It's New York, December, and Alyssa's first day on her high profile job. She's nervous. She's wanting to make a good impression with her boss. Relatable, girll. Relatable. But Jensen, well, he's a bit grumpy. Jaded. Not like the Grinch, but you know what I mean. He likes things done a certain way, he's career driven and very ambitious. He's got past issues. Alyssa has her stuff too. And when they get stuck in an elevator together... things went in overdrive.💋🛗💋 Give me some sugar baebee!! Hehe
Not awkward. Nope. Now these two have to work around the hot meltdown and not let anyone know. What matters is being professional and pretend nothing's going on. If you say so.😉 Jensen's best buddy Austin has a big opinion. Now Austin. I think he's secretly involved with Holly. But Ms Cox hasn't written that story yet. Sshh.🤫 Jensen is really a teddy bear. He cares a great deal more than anyone knows. But don't tell him I told you that.🤐 Family means everything. We meet his sister Holly and his little nephew Ollie. Alyssa is close with her parents. She tries her best to take care of them while not getting emotionally involved with her boss. Good luck, sis. Good luck.🤞🏻🤞🏻
Throw in a far away cabin and a massive blizzard, Christmas family traditions, and believing that anything is possible b/c 'tis the season, and you'll find Alyssa and Jensen living the romantic dream.✨👩🏼❤️💋👨🏻✨ I liked and enjoyed their story. Believe in Christmas magic. Anything is possible. Elevators are a good catalyst.😏🙉 I recommend. Happy reading.❤️❤️❤️
🚁🎄☃️Thank you to Ms Cox and Booksprout for an early book. I'm happy to share my honest review.☃️🎄🚁

Alyssa is trying to help her parents with their medical bills, so she is grateful to be hired as CEO Jensen Riley’s new executive assistant. Rushing to get to an important meeting, the elevator they are in gives a lurch and jolts to a stop and they realize they are stuck. Her boss has already been rude and impatient with her, so this doesn’t bode well for her. When he gets her irritated enough to “gently” snap at him, he enjoys seeing the challenge in her eyes. To test her resilience for the job, he tries a flirty insult expecting a slap, saying “I don’t want to get attached to such a nice view if you’re just going to choke and leave.” But the slap was not delivered as she stretched onto her toes and kissed him, enough to take his breath away! As she presses against him, he takes over the kiss, determined to make her lose control and unravel. Will she show him what she really wants? Or will she keep holding back, being a perfect employee? Fortunately the elevator shifted and began to descend to the lobby before he could get an answer to his “test”. However, an attraction does begin to build between the two of them. Will they hold back and continue to be professional in the workplace? Or will getting stranded in a cabin during a blizzard be way more than they can resist? Will Alyssa risk losing her job when she so desperately needs her income to help her parents? Or is the lure of the mistletoe just too much for either of them to resist?

What a fantastic story. Alyssa is hired to be the new executive assistant to Jensen Riley.

She sees a softer side of him, and he falls for her even more. Although a relationship between them is off-limits, will they keep their relationship professional or break the rules and go for it and have a HEA?
The story was engaging and well written from the beginning to the end. I found myself liking it so much, I didn't want it to end. Highly recommend!

Jensen's company, which he has with his best friend, is about to upgrade its dating app for a big launch starting at the beginning of the new year. He just needs to get through the next few weeks and get a new assistant, Alyssa, up to speed simultaneously. They get stuck in the elevator, and she is panicking, but sparks are already flying between them, resulting in a heated makeout session. Of course, his best friend and business partner want him to stop it, and Jensen downplays how he feels and tells him there is no problem. My heart sank when his business partner talked with Alyssa, too. But neither of them listens to him. They get stuck in a snowstorm, tell each other how they feel, and end up with their happily ever after.

Brooklyn Cox combines an enemies to lovers, boss/employee romance with all the feels of a romantic Christmas novel. It’s even complete with ice skating, cookies, fireplaces, and sexy surprises.
Jensen comes off as rude and bossy, but when he’s around his sweet nephew he shows his kind and compassionate side. Alyssa is immediately attracted to her new boss but can’t risk losing the job she needs to help her parents financially.
It has a wonderful, feel-good vibe without much angst and no third act break-up. The ending is heartwarming and charming. The cover model and the story make you wish you were stranded with this commanding but vulnerable boss.

This was a great love story between a boss and his assistant. You can't help who you fall in love with, but you have to figure out how to deal with work/life with them, so this was a great way to see how it would turn out. Jensen and Alyssa are each complex in their own ways, but complemented each other so well that you couldn't help cheering them on. They seemed to fall very quickly, but when you know, you know. I'd recommend this book to anyone who loves a good office romance with a HEA and excellent steamy scenes ;) My rating system: 5=will read again 4=recommend to everyone 3=recommend to anyone liking that particular writing style/trope 2=do not recommend 1=DNF

Jensen & Alyssa: Part of Forbidden Billionaire Boss Daddies Collection: Forced proximity/ forbidden/ workplace romance: This was a fun, sweet, and spicy read. This was more of a workplace romance than a holiday romance. (Not that I am complaining) Brooklyn Cox always delivers with the spice, drama, and temptation.

A very nice holiday love story. I expected a bit more drama - relationship discovery blowing up or his parents appearing or getting stranded before hooking up - but maybe that's just my jaded imagination.
Very well written and a pleasure to read.

I loved this book! It started out with one of my biggest fears in life and I almost had to stop reading but I’m so glad I didn’t. I kept waiting for the moment in the book when something would happen and the relationship would fizzle but it never happened. It had some spicy scenes early on in the book which isn’t always as common.
