A way too arrogant over the top boss . Yup relate . But your on your own mate with the used to date…He’s a billionaire and offered her a job. She wasn’t gonna say no ,she’s no slob , just plain broke so she goes to work for the bloke . Hoping not to see him haha wasn’t going to happen now was it . It was probably a requisite in the small writing on her contract and terms. There’s Max and there’s Castella who’s a lucky gal…well there’s this thing ya see ,she didn’t see coming . It’s the self same fella she’s been avoiding and then chumming with…This was indeed a scream but a good dream or nightmare? See for yourself,buy this book for your bookshelf . Well I would having read ,I took it to bed mind. But that’s just how I like to read mine. Very well written , good storytelling . How it ends ? That’d be telling.

A Grumpy Boss, a sweet employee, A mysterious yet friendly bodyguard, what could go wrong? Secrets lie between the truths and reality is not what it seems. But it's Romance so what's so complicated? Everything when it comes to the Grumpy Boss. The chemistry between MMC and FMC is wonderful and yet confusing and it is more fun to read about them. I was engrossed in the story. I would definitely recommend it.

Emma and Castell were once in love, but now she is working at his company.
I really enjoyed the interactions between Emma and Castell and how they develop throughout the book. Really solid characters that kept this book interesting and a little unpredictable. A wonderful read for a lazy afternoon.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Emma's heart was broken when Castell walked away without even saying goodbye. Now, she's working for him and he treats her with coldness. Will Castell open up and let her in? Will Emma be able to forgive him? They have a second chance at love, will they grasp it, hold on to it forever. Second chances is where the magic happens. A love story worth reading with characters you'll love.
