Once Upon A Christmas Eve (2010) - Plot & Excerpts
It didn’t matter if the challenge was to shave seemingly impossible seconds from his fastest run, or close a deal others swore would collapse. It didn’t always look like it to anyone else, especially those he left in his wake, but he wasn’t trying to beat the next guy. He was trying to beat himself. The more successful he was, the more successful he needed to be. The need had become so ingrained he no longer knew why it was there. He was well aware, however, that defying the odds was what drove him. As he pulled his black Mercedes coupe to the curb outside the darkened Corner Bistro, he wondered now what the odds were that the unrealistic and impractically soft-hearted Ms. Fairchild would listen to reason. Considering her reactions to his recommendations yesterday, he figured, “not good.” Considering his reactions to her, he intended to let what he was dropping off speak for itself and be in and out of her bistro in under five minutes. He’d never regarded himself as being particularly noble, but his sense of honor wouldn’t allow him to trespass on another guy’s turf—even if the guy hadn’t done anything but stake his claim and leave town.
