he first met her. Tana had been so scared, but now her face glowed with excitement on behalf of her daughter. “They’re pretty big ones. I’m hoping you’ll be impressed.”
“You know I’m already impressed with you.”
Chase’s heart pounded, though he’d been planning what he’d say next for days now. “Well, I hope you’ll be impressed because I’m working hard on another promotion, too.”
“What’s that?” Over at the chairlift, Lindsey climbed back on. Tana searched Chase’s eyes. “Are you looking to take over the Lodge? I don’t think Jonas would like that very much.”
“No. Actually, I’m going to put all my effort into getting promoted from athletic director to dad.” Tana froze for a dizzying instant. If she said no, Chase would sink into the snow and never resurface. “I’m pretty determined to do whatever it takes to win your trust.”
Tana burst out with a laugh that turned into a cry, and she pulled him down into another kiss. If this kept up, they were going to have to sneak away to his place. It wouldn’t do for them to jump each other in front of all the guests. “If that’s what you want,” Tana said fiercely, “then you keep doing what you’re doing. Because honestly, Chase, the hiring manager in charge of that position is more than halfway convinced.”
“More than halfway?” he mused. “I don’t know if I’ll get the job. Unless—”
“All the way.” Tana kissed him one more time and pulled back, putting space between them and holding her arms up toward the sky as if surrendering to him. “I’m convinced. You’re hired.”

One alpha billionaire. One fake engagement. One Christmas they’ll never forget.
Gabe Elkins, President and CEO of a Silicon Valley digital security tech firm, has just launched another successful app. But instead of celebrating, Gabe learns his grandmother is sick and he has to return home to make her last Christmas a memorable one.
Gabe’s family has never been impressed by his corporate success and they’re constantly hounding him about marriage. He wants nothing more than to give his dying grandmother the news she’s been waiting years to hear—that he’s finally engaged. If he’s going to pull it off, he’ll need the help of a professional miracle-worker, and he knows just who to ask—his intelligent, gorgeous, and impressive as hell conference liaison, Anna Waters.
Anna has just been offered the job of a lifetime: Agree to be this bad boy billionaire's fake fiancée for the holidays at his family’s luxury ski resort, and he’ll help her build her private conference consultation business. The idea is more attractive than Anna would like to admit—almost as attractive as the man proposing the charade.
Once Anna agrees, she is quickly swept up in putting on the biggest show of her career. Except, the more time she spends with Gabe, the less their sweet moments and toe-curling kisses feel like acting. And when the lines between the charade and reality start to blur, Gabe and Anna are faced with deciding if their relationship could work in the real world or if their romance only shines under the twinkling Christmas lights.
