Holiday Hack

Christmas and Evie Thompson have a mutual restraining order. After a breakup, a lifetime of bad Decembers, and a tragic past she refuses to unpack, the last thing she wants is holiday cheer. But when a snowstorm strands her in Lone Ridge—with one motel bed, her forgetful golden-boy coworker, and a shady tech client who ghosted their Christmas meeting—Evie's perfectly controlled world crashes harder than her firewall. 

Between a lingerie bet gone rogue, a TSA disaster, and a cozy bookshop caper, she might just uncover corporate corruption…and something dangerously close to joy. Gavin Foster wasn't supposed to be the exception. He was supposed to be safe. But the more he sees through her defenses, the harder it is for Evie to hide the truth: sometimes love is the only hack worth risking everything for.
