Another winner by Katy Evans! I loved Kit and Alex's story, it was an exhilarating push and pull relationship that I couldn't stop reading. Kit is set to take over his father's company, but his father thinks he needs some mentoring from the smart and sassy, take-no-prisoners Alexandra while doing it. While these two have a somewhat rocky beginning, their chemistry is off the charts. Will the new boss be able to take the reins, or will Alex take over? I love Ms. Evans' writing, it flows well, there is great character development, and I love the underlying story. Overall, a great, fun read that leaves you smiling!

Katy is one of those authors that I can always count on to deliver a book that will monopolize my time because it's unputdownable. Kit and Alex's story was no different with its fast-paced story, sexy as hell chemistry, and seductive characters; no wonder I had it read in a day. If you love boss- employee romance with a side of insta-love that has you inhaling page after page then this is a must read for you!
