Enjoy this laugh-out-loud, steamy romance series by award-winning romantic comedy author Evie Alexander… ’Tis the season to fall in love… Best friends Leo Foxbrooke and Ella Chamberlain love Christmas and each other—in a strictly platonic way, of course. The only secret they've ever kept from each other is a mutual crush they had when teenagers. But the timing was never right. Until now… Dumped by her boyfriend, Ella’s facing Christmas homeless and alone. The only ray of sunshine in her life is Leo and his family, who welcome her into Foxbrooke Manor. Staying in the bedroom next to Leo’s is a luxury and means more time together prepping for the Christmas pantomime. Leo always plays a side role, and Ella paints the sets. But as the clock ticks down to Christmas, they find themselves center stage playing Cinderella and Prince Charming. Rehearsal kisses between best friends should be easy. Right? So why do they feel so real? Ella can’t risk losing Leo when she’s already lost so much. But as the Christmas countdown heats up, hearts melt, and practice kisses turn into much more. With Leo and Ella falling for each other faster than the snow outside, maybe this Christmas, they can finally rewrite their friendship and unwrap true love… Christmas off Script is a friends-to-lovers, forced proximity, steamy, standalone romantic comedy with a modern-day Cinderella, her swoony Prince Charming, and more heat than chestnuts roasting on an open fire – Perfect for fans of Lucy Score, Pippa Grant, Kayley Loring, Tara Sivec, Lauren Landish, Lauren Blakely and Nicole Snow.

High atop a Los Angeles skyscraper, an office Christmas party turns into a deadly cage-match between a lone New York City cop and a gang of international terrorists. Every action fan knows it could only be the explosive big-screen blockbuster Die Hard. But before Bruce Willis blew away audiences as unstoppable hero John McClane, author Roderick Thorp knocked out thriller readers with the bestseller that started it all.

As hot-headed cops swarm outside, and cold-blooded killers wield machine guns and rocket launchers inside, the stage is set for the ultimate showdown between anti-hero and uber-villains. Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good fight... to the death. Ho ho ho!
