An event planner falls for her emotionally unavailable client.
Stolen Kiss with Her Billionaire Boss is a delightful Christmas romance with a strong heroine and an emotionally unavailable, workaholic hotelier.
It is book #3 in the Christmas at the Harrington Park Hotel, but can be read as a standalone. I have also read and reviewed the first book in the series Christmas Reunion in Paris.
Erin Hunter was a widow that worked hard to support her son and her mother.
She had worked for the wealthy and demanding hotelier Hugo Harrington for two years and harbored a secret crush for him. But the man was all business, and sometimes she doubted he had any feelings at all.
Hugo and Erin were working together on his most important project. The renovation of the Harrington Hotel in London.
There was more at stake than the business. Hugo’s chances of reconnecting with his estranged siblings depended upon a successful and nostalgic Christmas celebration.
I love an emotionally unavailable hero, and Hugo was a delectable mess (lol). In between his crazy work hours, he was so lonely and vulnerable, yet he refused to open up.
Erin was strong and professional; her husband hid something from her before he died, and because of that, Hugo’s trust and commitment issues made her wary of having anything more meaningful with him.
The couple had blazing chemistry. They started a no-strings-attached relationship, and sparkles flew.
I liked the story’s romantic atmosphere: sightseeing tours, romantic dinners, limo rides, and sensual scenes in his penthouse. There was also a pleasant feeling of Christmas and family. Erin’s son was adorable.
I greatly enjoyed Stolen Kiss with Her Billionaire Boss. I’m looking forward to reading the second book in the series.
Disclosure: I received an ARC of this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Oh this story finished this series so beautifully, oh my there were lots of happy tears for me. This is an emotional and moving read as we get to know Hugo and learn all that he had been through in his younger years living at the famous Harrington Hotel in London. Now Hugo has a chance to make things right and re-create the famous Christmas Eve party that had been started by his father, and see him fall head over heels for his party planner Erin.
Erin is one of Manhattan’s best party planners and has worked numerous times for Hugo Harrington but when he all but insists that she relocate to London for Christmas to help get a hotel and Christmas Eve party up and going she is far from impressed but when there is an offer too good to refuse Erin makes her way to London she has been attracted to him but getting to know him in his home town she gets to see him in a different light and her feelings are soaring.
Hugo is determined to get his family back together he feels he needs to return as big brother to his siblings twins Jay and Sally, but Erin is making him see things differently and he is not sure which Hugo he really is at the moment business man Hugo or caring, loving Hugo. It is not long before he an Erin are sharing more than work and he is feeling his world turn around and his heart opening, can he really be the man that Erin deserves.
I truly beautiful, moving and emotional story that sees Hugo find his family and put the past behind him and look to the future with Erin and her son and Erin also has some things from her past that need to be sorted and it is Hugo who helps her do this. They are made for each other and I can highly recommend this beautiful sensual, heart-warming story, the epilogue is the best and there were lots of happy tears and lots of smiles from me.
Before I even opened the cover of Stolen Kiss with Her Billionaire Boss, I was in the Christmas spirit. The cover is stunning. That warm happy feeling the cover evoked came to life between the pages of the book. Once I stepped inside Erin and Hugo’s story, I couldn’t put it down. It was fun to watch Erin unleash Hugo from her brooding boss to charming heartthrob without even meaning to. Hugo can steal my heart anytime? I have never been to London but as Hugo took Erin and her son to all the best holiday spots, I felt like I was right there with them. I hope I’m on the guest list of the Harrington hotel Christmas Eve party because it’s destined to be the event of the year. If you are looking for that warm Christmas spirit than, Stolen Kiss with Her Billionaire Boss, is the perfect book to start your holiday reading.
Emotional, heart rending, beautifully written. It’s a five from me.
