One cabin. One bed. Two rivals who were never supposed to fall for each other.
Sloane Mercer has spent years building her career on preparation, precision, and control. Now, a multimillion-dollar account is within reach, and winning it could finally secure the Senior VP promotion she has worked relentlessly toward. All she needs is one uninterrupted week in a secluded Vermont cabin to perfect her pitch.
Then Jax Reynolds arrives with an identical reservation.
Charming, unpredictable, and infuriatingly talented, Jax is everything Sloane tries not to be. He is also her fiercest workplace rival and the one person standing between her and the promotion she wants. When a historic blizzard closes the mountain pass and leaves them stranded in the same cabin, neither is willing to surrender their reservation-or their competitive advantage.
Their situation becomes even more complicated when they discover the booking was made under a honeymoon package. With no other accommodation available, they have little choice but to play the part of a devoted newlywed couple. Sharing a cabin is difficult enough. Sharing the cabin's only king-sized bed is another matter entirely.
Determined to maintain some semblance of control, Sloane draws a line of blue painter's tape down the middle of the mattress. His side. Her side. No exceptions.
But as the storm intensifies and the outside world disappears beneath the snow, the boundaries between them begin to blur. Forced proximity gives way to unexpected conversations, carefully guarded secrets, and an attraction that becomes increasingly difficult to dismiss. The man Sloane has spent years trying to defeat begins to look dangerously different when there is no boardroom between them.
Then the power fails, the temperature falls, and staying apart is no longer quite so simple.
Somewhere between their staged affection and snowbound nights beside the fire, rivalry turns into trust-and trust into something neither of them planned for. But the storm cannot last forever. When the roads reopen, Sloane and Jax must return to Manhattan, where the account, the promotion, and everything they have worked for are still waiting.
In the cabin, falling for each other was easy. The real test begins when they become rivals again.
Double Booked in the Blizzard is a steamy contemporary romantic comedy about ambition, vulnerability, and discovering that the person standing in the way of everything you thought you wanted might be the person you never knew you needed. Featuring workplace rivals-to-lovers, forced proximity, a fake honeymoon, only one bed, grumpy-her/sunshine-him chemistry, and a snowbound romance with a guaranteed happily ever after.
