Mistletoe Boss: A Slow Burn Christmas & New Years Eve Holiday Office Romance (BDSM, Hot Bosses & BBW)
What is the only thing you shouldn't do at your new job?
Your boss.
But what if he is insanely hot and wants you as bad as you want him? Would you be able to resist temptation? Would you even want to? Bosses can be so demanding, you know...
Natalie has had a crush on her boss since the beginning of time. Well, at least it felt like that to her. And, until a fateful New Year's party at the office, she thought she didn't stand a chance to get the one man she wanted. Because it would have been too good to be true. But she forgot about a tiny, yet significant detail, one she didn't dare believe. He felt the sparks, too. And, being her boss an' all, he had a plan.
Oh, and he had mistletoe, too...
~o~
“Hey Natalie, how is it going?”
I glance up at Trish, who’s normally too gloomy to notice anyone else in the room, but probably she had a few drinks herself. It’s free booze tonight, after all, and I don’t think any of the employees would miss out on that. Sebastian is nowhere to be seen though. In fact, he hasn’t been out of his office since…
“Oh dear, are you okay? You look flushed.”
Trish’s comment makes me blush some more, but I decide to blame it on the martini, waving my empty glass in the air, turning it upside down, too, to show her my exaggerated disappointment. She just shakes her head with a sad smile and offers to bring me another one. I nod absent-mindedly, wondering where Sebastian is. I should be glad for having this party on the fifth floor, otherwise I would have ended up glancing at his door for the better part of the evening. Not that I’m not stupid enough to do the same mentally, but at least nobody knows that.
“Nobody knows what exactly?”
I spin around, realizing too quickly how bad an idea it was, as I practically fall into the arms of the gentleman that’s always there to catch me. Would it hurt him to fall with me instead? Frustrated, angry and humiliated, I try to break free, but he tightens his hold, saying something about me being too drunk. Well, duh…
“I think I have a right to be drunk. You might be my boss, but you sure as hell aren’t my father, so stop patronising me.”
Sebastian’s eyes go wide for a moment, which gives me a perfect opportunity to get lost in his bluish-green iris. Is it me, or are they a few shades darker right now? Damn, I don’t think I’m drunk enough yet. He clears his throat, brushes a strand of hair out of my face, and leans closer, so only I hear what he has to say to that:
“I sure as hell don’t want you to think I was your father. I’m not the ‘daddy’ type of guy.”
Is he referring to what I think he’s referring to? And why is he still so damn close?
“Yeah, right, you don’t like to be called boss, either.”
Shit, I didn’t just say that out loud, did I? Judging by the laughter that fills my heart with warmth, I did indeed.
“Well, I guess I could make an exception, if…”
He trails off, brushing his fingertips along my cheek, and I think I moan. Loudly. Is he drunk, too? Why the sudden change? Do I care? No. But I do gulp.
“If?”
He tilts his head slightly, measuring me up with his eyes. What is he looking for? Either way, his gaze is too intense for my liking, so I frown, pushing him away for a second, only to pull him back the next for balance. He laughs again, the sound leaving me breathless. Even if he is laughing at me...
Your boss.
But what if he is insanely hot and wants you as bad as you want him? Would you be able to resist temptation? Would you even want to? Bosses can be so demanding, you know...

About the author
Timea Tokes
95 books287 followersI have been writing short stories and poems since a young age, but my ultimate goal was creating a novel. Or a series, rather.
Now, with my four paranormal romance novels published, as well as more than 30 erotica titles under my belt, I think I can say that it came true - but this only fuels my desire to write more. After all, we are allowed to dream the same dream (over and over again) - and that's exactly what I'm planning to do :)
I enjoy helping people in any way possible, and I really hope that my books will prove to be inspirational in a way. Whether readers are looking for a swift (and steamy) erotic story, or a paranormal romance, I want them to associate themselves with my characters and realize stuff about themselves in the process.
Yes, even the bad things. Because, in life, there is no black and white, only colours. Therefore, I don't think any of my characters are either good or bad, but rather a little bit of both.
Aren't we all?
Well, if you never had guilty thoughts, never had any self-confidence issues, or if you never wanted something (or someone ) who belonged to someone else, then probably my books won't be for you. But, who knows, I might be able to show you a different perspective. I like to experiment with different genres, and new concepts and ideas.
I really enjoy learning as much as I can about people, what makes them tick (and live, laugh, cry, and sigh). In fact, I think our World (and those beyond) are so diverse, ten thousand lifetimes wouldn't be enough to explore it all. But one thing I truly believe in: those who belong in your life will find a way there. Therefore my stories are usually based on chance encounters and ordinary events that take an unexpected turn.
Like a blind date on Valentine's day, or a haircut, or a new job. Who says you can't meet someone 'accidentally'; while going to the hairdresser, someone you lost contact with 500 years ago? Trust me, you can. You just need to brace every day (and every book) with open eyes - and an open heart.
Just remember: my stories are all about you, and you alone. If they capture your attention (and your heart), then I've done my 'job'. I regularly try to release new content, both on Amazon and my blog. Please feel free to have a look, and sign up to my newsletter.
And, just so you know: I care about your opinion, very much so. Whether you liked my work or you didn't, I would be honoured if you let me know what it meant for you. It would mean the world to me!

This is the second book I’ve read by Timea Tokes and I love her writing style. It felt a little strange reading a festive book in February, but such is the order of my reading list and when I received the book,
The book is about Natalie, an office worker who pines for her boss ‘Sebastian’. His small touches and devilishly handsome stares set her body alight and she only wishes he could be hers for a moment. After a misunderstanding and the drinks of a New Year office bash, Natalie finally gets her moment.
The book is a short story, but the tone and flow captured my attention, and it wasn’t hard to become immersed in Natalie’s story. My only disappointment was that it felt like it was short and I’d have liked to have had more to read from these characters that had captivated my attention.
An easy and enjoyable read that I’d recommend to anyone looking for a quick read, or the opportunity to delve into something new.
