Recommendation
This is a fun book that made me laugh! Kendall works for Liam who is not the nicest guy in the world, and after a while barriers get broken down and feelings develop. I am a fan of the whole “I am your boss, so I am going to be an alpha a**hole to keep myself distant from you but really I just want to be loved” thing and this book was all of that and more. You will hate Liam, then feel bad for him, then begin to love him and finally, you won’t stop thinking about him! Kendall puts up a good fight but, in the end, they both become more secure as individuals, which opens them up to feeling more secure with one another.
Excerpts
He nibbled my bottom lip. As soon as his tongue entered my mouth again, I seized it, sucking on it lightly and causing him to growl. It was as if a switch had been flipped. No longer were we tentative and exploring. We were carnal.
One moment we were both breathing hard and laughing, the next, my lips were on hers. I hadn’t meant it to happen, yet the kiss seemed like the most natural thing in the world.
Jesus. I’d been with my share of women, but seeing the vision in front of me was a whole new experience. I regarded her from her perky breasts with rosy nipples to her trim waist and flared hips. I about swallowed my tongue once my gaze got to her pussy. Perfectly groomed with just a patch of hair. I could feel myself harden fully, thinking about all the ways I wanted to sink into her.
Publisher synopsis
Liam Davenport is the most infuriating man I’ve ever known – and he’s my boss.
Worse, he’s undeniably sexy. At least until I’m subject to one of his trademark sighs of disapproval. I’m counting the days until I can walk away from this job. But first, I need to survive the trip from hell he’s dragged me on. One entire week with his arrogant smile and my unexpected naughty thoughts.
I might get fired.
He just might be worth it.
Kendall Tate is the most distracting woman I’ve ever met – and she’s my assistant.
She’s irritatingly clever, and much too nice for the likes of me. I need to remain professional, even if the smell of her strawberry lip gloss is my kryptonite. No matter how much I want her, Kendall is off limits.
Growing closer to her might be a mistake.
I might just take the risk.
Full Length Standalone book with no cliffhanger. First book of the “Miss Series”.
***Miss Understanding is for mature audiences due to steamy bedroom scenes that are in no way contained to just the bedroom.***
