SYNOPSIS
Getting fired and humiliated in front of everyone at my newly acquired secretarial job at Morgan Financial Holdings wasn’t how I’d seen my day going.
And then chaos—or maybe luck—ensured.
I was set up on a blind date, shocked that my former boss was giving me a month’s severance, and had the perfect interview lined up.
Maybe things were looking up for me after all.
And although finding a man should have been on the bottom of my to-do list, I couldn’t get Jason—the uber-sexy blind date—out of my head. Sexy and confident—or maybe arrogant—he had me yearning for more with just a smoldering look and a smirk of his lips.
But when a night of drinking leads to getting in bed with him and having the wildest, most intense night of my life, I didn’t know if I should ask to see him again or do the good old walk of shame.
And it’s when I walk into my interview the next day and come face-to-face with my prospective employer that the reality of my situation sinks in.
Because there, sitting across from me with that devilish smile on his face, that knowing expression of what we’d done the night before, is the one and only Jason, my supposedly one-night stand.
Looked like my humiliation wasn’t over just yet.
READING EXPERIENCES
I have mixed feelings about this book. The first half was fantastic—I could really feel the momentum building. I loved the character dynamic: Jason being calm, in control, and expressive, while Linda was shy and timid. Their contrast made the story engaging and emotionally layered.
However, the second half started to feel off. It came across as rushed and forced, almost as if the author had to wrap things up quickly due to a page limit. The pacing became uneven, and the emotional depth that had been developing so well just... faded. The whole vibe shifted abruptly, which was such a shame after such a strong start.
