Status Updates From Rich Rancher for Christmas ...

The fact that CJ doesn't want you spilling his private life all over the tabloids does not mean he has an attitude problem, Natalie.

i didn't know it was part of a series lmao anyway this is great when you imagine chris hemsworth and lupita nyong'o as the main characters tbh

So what was she supposed to do now? Keep hoping this semi-involuntary Christmas vacation would go on forever? That was no answer and she knew it. Besides, she had a job to do--a job she loved. At least, she had loved it. Hadn't she? What if she hadn't loved her job? What if she actually hated it? What if putting herself on display and hoping to get noticed had secretly made her sick?

If he were smart, he'd get his mug back and sit on the floor. He'd maintain a modicum of distance between them. But he must not be as smart as he thought he was because instead, he sat down next to her and put his arm around her, drawing her close. She gave him his mug and rested her head on his shoulder. In a comfortable silence, they sipped their cocoa and watched the flames dance.

Trapped in a blizzard is definitely a big theme this year, and I'm enjoying this one!
