The Christmas Ultimatum

A journalist with a deadline. A billionaire with conditions. What started as a holiday detour might just change everything. Olanma Obinze, a freelance journalist with no love for the holidays, escapes to Dubai for the interview of a lifetime. The money would save her career-and keep her from crawling back to her powerful father. Abayomi Rice, heir to a global empire and former playboy, controls access to the interview. But there's a catch: he'll only agree if she accepts one condition-a trip to Cape Town, with him. What begins as a transactional detour becomes a collision of pride, secrets, and attraction under the glow of Christmas lights. Set against glittering international backdrops, this holiday novella is perfect for fans of destination romance, stubborn chemistry, and unexpected second chances.
