Synopsis...

Five minutes until the interview begins.

Fresh on the heels of her college graduation, Cameron Heart has landed an interview at a prestigious architecture firm.

Four minutes until the interview.

She knows she’s only there because the owner, Grayson Cole, is her older sister’s friend.

Three minutes.

For the last seven years, Grayson has been the most intimidating man Cammie has ever had the pleasure, or displeasure, of being around.

Two Minutes.

But the job opportunity is too good to pass up. So, Cammie will have to ignore the fact that Grayson is handsome enough to have his own national holiday.

One.

After all, she shouldn’t feel that way about her new boss. And, he will be her new boss.

My Thoughts
The design is a standalone Romance novel, book 2 of The Heart series.  


If you have read the first book of the Heart series, The Duet , you will know that Camron Heart who goes by the nickname Cammie, is the younger sister of the  popstar, Brooklyn Heart. Grayson Cole is the owner of the architecture firm where she has got an interview for the position of an architect associate.  The story starts off chaotic but eventally she reaches the office and is nervous after watching women go in the interview feeling one way and utterly distraught coming out , but she does not let this affect her. Chaos and clumsy seem to be Cammie’s middle names.  

"what's your sexual orientation?"
"Are you currently taking birth control?"
"what was the last day of your menstrual cycle?"
I blanched. Nope. No. Oh dear god. I was not in the right office...

Camie ends up landing her dream job, working for Grayson, the distant boss which she tries so hard to break . She has a crush on him longer than Grayson has anticipated but we as readers soon find out that Grayson is no innocent and has been involved in Cammie’s life more than she realises. Whilst on the pursuit to seduce Grayson, Cammie is saving to go to her dream city , Paris and we as a reader are constantly reminded of the closer she is getting to her dream trip the more sucess she is getting to seduce Grayson.

He was the Mr Darcy to my Elizabeth Bennet, the price Charming to my Cinderella, the ron weasley to my Hermoine Granger.

Grayson is your typical Boss – powerful. However he is relationship with Cammie is unconventional and is more than the typical employee and employer relationship as he is best friends with her older sister Brooklyn Heart.He parades different women in and out of his office in order to keep Cammie at arms length. Little does he know that it just brings her closer, more curious, more determined. He is a jealous character and a real HOTTIE in the whole persona he creates.

"Your such a liar, Grayson."
"You know what else I am Cammie?" he asked leaning an inch closer.
"Your boss."

I love both the characters , Cammie and Grayson and but felt sad not to see a sequel to their story. it had left us readers wanting  to know more and see more of how their relationship is when they are together . We are not shown enough of them in my opinion but nevertheless it was still a satisfying ending. 

This book reminds me of why I love the whole boss , employee, older hero younger heroine romances because it is forbidden, difficult and tension between the two characters is so FUSTRATING, all the things needed to create a SWOON WORTHY, FUN , EXCITING and EPIC romance novel and R S Grey has done it again. LOVED this book, would recommend it to fans of HERO by Samantha Young as it has a similar vibe.
My Rating: 5 Stars!!
