Driving Home for Christmas
USA Today Bestselling Author, Lexy Timms, shares a holiday romance that’ll warm the heart and having you wishing on love—or beating it with a stick!
Colin Murphy Is the CEO of Murphy Inc and is a workaholic. Christmas, or any holiday in face, doesn't mean much to him. When his business trip travel plans get interrupted by a freak snowstorm, he’s forced to find a way home by other means.
Abigail Thompson can’t wait for this year to be over. After losing her job, her boyfriend and apartment, she’s ready to go home for a much-needed break and to regroup. But when her plane is grounded because of a snow storm, she has to find another way. She makes her way to the car rentals only to find the last car has just been given to a tall dark sexy man. Definitely not Santa, his name is Colin Murphy. When Colin finds out they’re head in the same direction, he offers her a lift. It’s nearly Christmas afterall.
What should be an easy 8-hour drive turns into 2 days of mishaps and mayhem.
She knows every Christmas song off by heart, even though she can’t carry a turn. She’s happy, he’s a real Christmas Grinch. Will this unplanned fiasco be the start of something magical?

Flying first class got you some benefits, but apparently, arriving at your final destination wasn’t one of them.
I was preparing a presentation for my Minneapolis firm regarding an expansion project I wanted to fulfill.

For the longest time, the two markets operated separately from one another, without ever realizing their full potential as a mass conglomerate market for consumer products. Part of the issue was the stringent business policies of the Chinese culture, but part of it was simply because everyone saw them as competition. The Chinese market had been growing substantially over the past five years, yet no one was tapping into their potential.
Until I did.
I created a start-up in my garage that enabled the two markets to come together and target the same audience. I was able to reach over the table
