Blake Snowden is tired of being seen as nothing more than the man with deep pockets and a handsome face. He wants romantic walks, snuggling by the fireplace and kisses under the mistletoe. And he wants it all with his beautiful Head of Marketing, Lara.

When Blake rigs the company’s annual secret Santa draw to get Lara’s name, will they both discover more than the perfect gift in their stockings on Christmas morning?

This Novella was beautifully written and really did pull on my heartstrings.

Lara has lived the last 7 seven years going through he motions. She lost her fiancé and the love of her life and hasn't ever been ready to let love in again. Focusing on her career she has become very successful. One perk of the job is the eye candy that the CEO provides and she has a small crush on him…but that’s all it will ever be.

Blake has admired Lana from afar for long enough, he has a plan to make her see him the same way he sees her he now just has to put it into action.

With a rigged secret santa and being a very persistent romantic man the odds are stacked in his favour that is until Lana pulls away. The guilt of moving on is too much for her at times and even though she feels the pull is she ready to take the leap.

When is the right time to open yourself up to the possibility that maybe there is someone else out there who can complete you. Sometime you need to open your heart so it can mend itself.

EJ was born and raised in a suburb of West London where she still lives with Mr. T her first love and partner of twenty-two years, and their ‘child giant’ seventeen year old son. Additional snuggles come from Chloe, her fourteen year old black moggy. She's a bit of a character and loves nothing more than to lie down and read with E.J.

Having worked in education for the better part of 12 years, EJ decided a change was needed and, following a moment of inspiration, she decided to put pen to paper and start writing her first novel, Silver Lining. Not content with just the one, she continued with book two and hopes to write many more.

She has always enjoyed reading, but found it was mostly just a holiday extravagance. Then she discovered a certain worldwide best seller, and that was it she was hooked. Reading quickly became an obsession and she couldn’t devour books fast enough. The books on her shelves and reading device range from sweet, Young Adult romances, to smouldering erotic encounters.

Aside from reading and writing, EJ also enjoys amateur photography and cake decorating.

“I am on one amazing roller coaster ride at the moment, meeting new and wonderful people, discovering new music gems to integrate into my stories, and learning so many new skills. I can’t wait to see where this journey takes me.”
