Blurb:
Thorn
From the first time I played army as a kid, the military has been my life. As an Airborne Major, I’d led my men through two tours in Afghanistan. But when my father was elected president, I became an even greater target for the enemy—a prize for someone to take out. To ensure not only the safety of myself, but of my men, I got stripped of my cammies, shoved into an Armani suit, and placed into a management position at my father’s company. After years of trekking through the desert with an assault rifle, I was way out of my area of expertise, which my transition coordinator was more than happy to let me know on a daily, if not hourly basis. The brunette bombshell would be the death of me in more ways than one, especially since I hadn’t been with a woman since my last deployment. She’s turning out to be one of the greatest foes I’ve ever done battle with.
Isabel
In the backwoods Georgia town I was born in, you either married right out of high school or got the hell out of town. I chose the second and never looked back. After graduating top in my class, I started working for The Callahan Corporation. Fast forward five years and I was about to become the youngest female manager in the history of my department. And then all the blood, sweat, and tears I’d put into my career were for nothing when the boss’s billionaire son was handed my position on a silver platter. Not only that, I was expected to help transition him into the job that was supposed to be mine. Sure, he’s easy on the eyes with his chiseled good-looks and impossibly built physique, but I’m not going to let that distract me. I hope soldier boy is good at military strategy because sabotage is the name of the game I’ll be playing.
Review:
Isabel has had laser focus on what she wants out of life. She has worked for her success and getting this promotion would mean validation of everything she had done. What she doesn’t expect is the very sexy guy who caused her to spill coffee on herself, cops a feel and sees her half naked is the one taking her promotion from her.
Thorn has been comfortable on the battlefield not the corporate office for the last few years. Since his father is now the ruler of the free world he needs to take a position away from combat. He didn’t expect the person who is supposed to help him transition into this position is the same one who he took that position from. Can the two of them find a middle ground while their attraction simmers just under the surface? Or will everything both have worked for blow up in their face?
This was one addictive read. I couldn’t put this down until I was finished. Thorn and Isabel were fantastic characters. I loved her spunk and his depth of character. It really had quite a few levels to a romantic comedy. I really liked the addition of the dogs and how they help Vets with PTSD. That was an unexpected addition to a book primarily about the slow burn of this romance in a corporate setting. I truly enjoyed the slow build of this romance. It definitely wasn’t a wham bam thank you ma’am. If you are looking for a great beach read that you won’t want to put down even if you are getting sunburnt this is the one you need to pick up ASAP!
