The CEO's Holiday Agenda

Eden Vale keeps Mercer & Co. humming with quiet precision-even when the holidays leave the office deserted and the city wrapped in snow. But this year, everything shifts. Dane Mercer, the company's enigmatic CEO, hands her a handwritten invitation: pack warm, leave your phone behind, and join him at a remote cabin through the New Year. What begins as a calculated retreat soon unravels into something far more intimate.
In the hush of snowfall and firelight, Eden and Dane confront the fragile line between professionalism and desire, discovering that the most life-altering choices aren't made in boardrooms-but in moments of stillness, honesty, and trust. As the storm deepens, so does their connection. With no contracts, no distractions, and nowhere to hide, Eden must decide which version of herself she's willing to bring into the quiet-and whether she's ready to be seen, not just for her competence, but for her heart.
A story of holiday risk, executive restraint, and the kind of magic that only appears when you surrender the plan and choose the moment.
