SECRET SANTA BABY by Robin Covington

from Read Me Romance · host pITO

Tessa Stoneman hasn’t been able to get long-time friend and business partner Nicholas Boone out of her head since they shared a single kiss in college. Even when she dated Nicholas’s best friend. Now that she’s giving up her position at GameNerdz to strike out on her own—and now that she’s single—maybe it’s the right time to see if there’s still something between them. Nicholas knows once Tessa leaves the company she helped found, they might drift apart. Before she starts her own company in the new year, he wants to woo the woman he fell in love with during college. So he poses as her Secret Santa, gifts her with items from the song “Santa Baby,” and plans a big reveal at the company holiday party. But when his best friend wants to rekindle his romance with Tessa, will Nicholas lose his last chance? Tessa Stoneman’s been lowkey obsessed with her business partner, Nicholas Boone, since they shared a one kiss in college. Fast forward to now: she’s single, leaving her job at GameNerdz, and wondering if it’s time to finally see if there’s still something there… Enter Nicholas. He’s been in love with her since forever, and he’s got one shot to make her his—posing as her Secret Santa, sending her gifts straight out of Santa Baby. But wait… her ex (and his best friend) is back and wants a second chance. Will Nicholas win her over at the company holiday party—or lose her for good? This Christmas the geek finally gets the girl… Secret Santa Baby is a second-chance, friends-to-lovers, geek-gets-the-girl romance that is guaranteed to give a little spice, a whole lot of Santa, and a happily-ever-after.
