Two stubborn perfectionists have to face their flaws, and each other, in this funny, smart, holiday workplace romance from the bestselling author of the Heartlander series.
Lily Brown did it all right. Perfect student, graduated magna sum laude and landed the perfect job.
As the EA for Thomas Bell, the newly appointed CEO of Bell International, she scheduled every meeting, every flight, every impossible detail of his world flawlessly. But somewhere between color-coding his calendar and booking his dinner reservations, Lily made the first of two huge mistakes.
She fell completely, catastrophically in love with her boss. That’s one.
After three years of torture, she snapped like a rotten 2x4 and quit. Via text. In the dead of night. Mistake number two.
When she escaped to her hometown of Juniper Falls to help out the family bakery she thought she’d never see Thomas Bell again. Small town New Jersey was about as far away from Dallas as she could get. She was fine.
Then Thomas walked into her dad’s shop.
He also did everything right. Stepped in as CEO when asked. Listened to advisors, advanced the business, and, okay, leaned heavily on his assistant. But they were a team, or so he thought. Then she just vanished.
He’s not over it. He asks (demands) for one last project. She has no choice. She’ll plan the company's massive holiday charity initiative one final time, then all will be forgiven. He’s furious with her, she’s totally over him. It’s a strictly professional arrangement… that's getting less professional by every perfect, candlelit, snow-dusted minute.
One Last Christmas is another laugh-out-loud, steamy but closed-door, slow burn romcom readers have come to expect from Kelsey Humphreys, but complete with all your cozy holiday read must-haves!
Perfect for fans of Katherine Center, Emily Henry and Abby Jimenez.
