The Office

Lennox Cross didn’t fight her way to Vice President of Logistics at Thorne Freight just to become office gossip.

Her job is simple, keep cargo moving, keep profits up, and keep as much distance as possible from Xavier Thorne, the ruthless CEO who signs her checks and watches her like a problem he can’t quite solve. For three years they’ve circled each other in boardrooms and late-night strategy calls, all sharp edges and unspoken heat.

Then a Christmas Eve blizzard shuts down Chicago.

With the city frozen, the company’s biggest holiday shipment on the line, and the rest of the staff sent home, Lennox and Xavier are stranded together in his glass-walled corner office. One night of bad decisions changes everything, shattering every rule, including the no-fraternization policy Xavier wrote himself.

When the snow clears, the real storm hits.
