Publisher's summary

Ascending to a holiday party on the thirty-second floor of a Manhattan skyscraper, the building's only elevator breaks down, trapping grinchy curmudgeon "Nasty Nate" DuPont and the stubborn Director of Finance, Twila Henderson, inside. With bumbling maintenance workers en route and emotions running high, Twila and Nate struggle to stay civil. As hideously dressed co-workers mingle feet beyond their blocked exit, stuffed emotions bubble to the surface over the captive duo's seemingly forgotten past.

Bursting with heat and humor, this third-person steamy laugh-riot will leave you with an HFN that will warm your heart on even the coldest winter night. From the Alba sisters (authors of The Billionaire's Assistant & Call of the Wyl) comes a spicy standalone contemporary romance novella for fans of forced proximity, enemies-to-lovers, workplace romance, grumpy boss, holiday romance, & romantic comedy tropes.

Twila and Nathan

Twila gets stuck in the elevator with the office grinch(Nathan) , instead of enjoying the office Christmas party! But, by the time the elevator doors open turns out they were having a party of their own. Turns out Nate is not such a grinch after all. This was a fun, short story. I received a free copy of the audiobook, and am voluntarily leaving my review.

Irreverent humor + holiday romance

This cute holiday novella brims with sass. The banter was clever and snarky. I really liked this story but as with every good novella, I didn't want the story to end. I wanted more: more snark, more character development, more storyline. For a novella, though, it packed a lot into a little bit of time. A few secondary characters had interesting side storylines going and I hope to see those developed into more.

The narration was well done by one of the authors.

Ugly Sweaters

This is how I like my short stories. Not too much focus on back stories. Just enough to know the personality of each character. Reminds me of the sitcom The Office.

The narrator was a little bit of a turn off. The audio quality was lacking. It sounded like they were speaking through a tin cup and a section even repeated itself. At one point, the sound of one of the characters changed mid-sentence and I almost thought it was a different character.

Overall the story was light, funny, and easy to like.

Cute Contemp Romance: Forced Proximity

A super cute, short contemporary romance using the forced proximity (stalled elevator) trope with a hint of previous one night stand. Author narrated....and well presented.

Short. Funny. Sexy.

This novella was adorably funny. I loved all of the Hanukah jokes inside a Christmas book. “”Guilt and matzah balls”
