Publisher Description
Always putting business before pleasure, Cassie McPherson works hard for her family's construction business. That might explain why she doesn't have a date for the company Christmas party. But it doesn't quite explain why she's crazy enough to hire an escort for the event or - crazier still - why she's dying to unwrap him like a present . . .
With whiskey-colored eyes and a killer smile, James is one gorgeous hunk who really knows how to fill out a tuxedo. He charms everyone, including Cassie. And when the night ends, the party doesn't stop. As Cassie falls, literally, into his bed, James falls head over heels in love. Now he has to figure out a way to tell her the truth: he's not an escort. He's her family's fiercest business rival. But all he wants for Christmas is her . . .

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Lane s contemporary series launch sizzles from the moment Cassie McPherson s hired escort appears to accompany her to the company Christmas party. Cassie, a workaholic eager to avoid fix ups from her overcurious family, doesn t know that her date is really James Sutton, whose rival construction company threatens the McPhersons family business. Once he demonstrates his good looks, charm, and skill in the bedroom, she s determined to keep him around, until she and her protective brothers learn James s identity. The romance is inevitable, but Lane (Catch Me a Cowboy) makes the couple work for it, writing with warmth and humor. Readers will forgive the occasional contrived misunderstanding and adore James, Cassie, and the affectionately jocular McPhersons.

Fun Christmas Romance
One of the most fun Christmas romances I've read. With a case of mistaken identity, fun brothers that behave only as boys will, and some serious business competition. All together it makes for quite a fun romp in the snow (and yes they really do that).
Cassie is a work-a-holic that mistakes her biggest rival for her hired date for the evening. Needless to say, this leads to a slew of misunderstandings. While I did feel a little miffed that James didn't clear the air and tell her who he really was a little sooner - she also doesn't really give him much of a chance to.
As they get to know each other better, it gets harder and harder for him to find the right way to tell her who he really is. When she figures it out there's some major fireworks - both good and bad. Then her brothers get involved and hilarity insues (because they really like the guy). A very sweet romance that doesn't lose the heat element a bit. It kept me on the edge of my seat hoping they would get together, but wondering how it would ever work out.
But you will have a beautiful HEA (or two - maybe), along with some nice hot scenes (not all from sex either). You definitely don't want to miss this one this Christmas.
