Excerpt
Christmas Romeo:
My gaze shifted to the conference room doorway where our office Romeo, aka Richard Stokes, stood. A carefree grin shaped his mouth, one which accompanied his breezy walk as he acknowledged our co-workers he passed with a cheerful “good morning.”
Romeo infuriated me every time I saw him. Every. Single. Time.
“Well-well-well, look who’s here.” With a nod in his direction, I snorted a “humpf.”
“Oh. Him. Finally, Romeo graces us with his presence.” Crossing her arms over her chest, Melanie, my cube mate, dropped her chin and nearly spat with disgust.
“Could anyone look any more repulsive?” I slid my mouth sideways.
“He doesn’t appear one bit fazed by his appearance, Julianne.”
“His clothes are always-always-always rumpled. And does he ever comb his hair? I know rules are different about employee dress in today’s work environment, but I don’t like his style. He looks like a teenager.” I slammed my fist into my palm. “Professionalism, dammit.”

Thanks for hosting!
You’re welcome!
Thank you so much for hostessing me today and sharing about my fun stories. I hope all of you will have a glorious Thanksgiving; however, there is one question I need to discuss with you-the turkey…roasted or smoked?
You’re welcome! Sadly, I’m allergic to turkey, so neither.
I love holiday stories! Especially ones that feature small towns. That excerpted story sounds fun.
Everybody needs some romance and comedy during this time~
