My Review

This book begins in Seattle, Washington, with Mia. Mia is living thru a lousy day, almost getting fired from her waitressing job. I immediately like Mia; her outlandish comments and sassy remarks make me smile. I like that she has so much spunk, but her temper might get her in a pickle occasionally.

Derek, Mr. Ice Cold, or at least that seems to be his demeanor from her pov. But once we get to know him, it seems he is more calculating, and I love that story doesn’t repeat the same scene in different povs. Derek is a typical boss, busy as heck and looking forward to the next deal, but he doesn’t expect to run into a woman that challenges him with her wit. Let alone offer her a job?

Mia is relatable, has hot mess vibes, and is old enough to fall between new adult and midlife. The lines start to blur, and she isn’t technically working yet. What I so didn’t expect that what a fortuitous connection for her. All work and no play builds the angsty sexual tension betting Mia and Derek until this story gets steady enough to start to blur the lines.

The tangled web of desires vs. morals presents itself as Mia gets entangled in tough decisions and steamy situations. This book would be much better if the steamy scenes went both ways instead of one person giving all the time.

The author is seriously channeling some dom/sub vibes in this story. The story gets sad before it gets happy, but it does end okay. Around the end, unfortunately, I felt a disconnect between the characters, which caused me to read the last bit as an outsider looking in and, therefore, not enjoying their ending as much. Mia and Derek are a cute couple, but they didn’t get to the dreamy, swoony vibe I expected from this billionaire romance. Instead, the difference between them needed to be more exaggerated and fixed so that the reader could dream of the life change and swoon at the pampering.
