Reading Challenges:

Sage has been working at a high-tech firm in Newport Beach, CA for over two years as the only female director among three men. She is highly valued by her boss and she loves her job, but there's a problem - she's totally attracted to him and the stress is killing her. She's taking three days off for the Christmas holiday and has posted her availability online, hoping to find a job when she returns. Before she can leave, she has to find her cell phone and she doesn't know where she left it.

Terrance is the founder and owner of Templeton Designs and considers Sage so valuable to the company, he can't afford to acknowledge the feelings he has for her. He's stuck at the company this year when normally he would be enjoying the holiday in a warm, tropical location. It may be the year he finds a way to acknowledge the woman who holds his heart captive.

A teeny tiny short story that had some promise, but ultimately fell flat. I liked the run-up to Sage and Terrance’s encounter at her apartment. From there, we get too much, too fast, but not enough (if you know what I mean). And the ending is laughable. Not very good at all. At least it only took me like 15 minutes to read this.
