Teased by the Boss is the third book in the Tempted Series by Hazel Kelly.

Despite her initial reservations, it's not long before Ella feels like giving in to her boss's seduction was the best thing she ever did.

She's never felt more alive or enjoyed someone's company as much as she's enjoying Will's.

Unfortunately, with her emotions running higher than ever, she can't help but want him all to herself.

But what if she admits her true feelings and he doesn't feel the same?

This is the third in the series and I am still enjoying it.
I do think Ella had a right to ask what their relationship was, especially during the second book when she got called a tease by Will. He is now teasing her, giving her ideas it's a relationship with gifts, a raise etc.
I think Ella's friend Jackie could have been a better friend since Ella was hurt and she gave no support to Ella at all, and in fact blamed her for ruining the relationship.
However, Ella's relationship with her Mom improved which I really liked and I felt Will and Ella interacted much better.
I do think longer books and making this a trilogy would have been better than 5 short books but overall a quick read. I will continue to read the series.

Steamy, Comical and Intense!

I'm loving every part of this book it always leave you craving for more, the characters are amazing, I especially like Ella's friend Jackie, I think all friends should be like her in certain ways, how she tells you the truth whether you like it or not, she's a real one. I love the playful sarcasm between Ella and Will it's refreshingly cute, However I didn't like the way Will would say alot of sexist men things sometimes and find so many excuses why he couldn't give Ella what she wanted, it was like he was in a constant state of denial 😞hopefully the next book will have a better outcome.

Pretty much along the first book

These books so short could have probably made one decent book if all together....would have preferred just 1 book. Story doesn't really move as these short books are so short is a little annoying

The story is picking up nicely; the main theme about not having a casual relationship is the best.

Finally in the 3rd book, 16th chapter you find out Ella is a brunette. I have no idea what Will looks like or his hair color. We've only been told he's an attractive older man.

Everything seems to be going well for Ella and Will, after Ella finally gives into Will she couldn't be happier. The only two problems that Ella has is that she hates going home to her mom and get told off for not coming back that same night, she feels that her mom shouldn't keep treating her like a child but she is only putting up with it until she can afford somewhere else. The second problem is that she needs to find somewhere soon so that her best friend Jackie can come and live with her but when Jackie tells her that she needs to do something soon otherwise she will have to stay living where she is for the next six months, Ella knows that she needs to figure something out fast.

For Will everything seems to be going well, he is keeping everything that he needs to separate, but then when it comes to him missing a date because he goes to his ex wife's dads funeral he feels really bad when he ends up lying to Ella about where he is. Whilst he is with his ex wife Laura we get to see how he is whilst being in her company and being honest it surprises me as he treats her really cold and even though he has reason to considering she cheated on him whilst they were marries but you'd think that he would treat her with a little respect considering their child lives with her.

When Will does come back and surprises Ella on Monday, she is touched by his little gesture by the fact he knows that her favourite drink that doesn't require alcohol is Ginger ale, but she manages to shock herself with the things that she does to Will. After having such an amazing week, she is appalled to find out on Friday that she has been given a bonus and when she storms into his office to tell him that she doesn't think it's appropriate to give her money for sex, the last thing she was expecting was for him to put her in her place. So when she learns that it was because of how well she did with one of her clients she has no idea where to put herself, but then she is extremely grateful because now she can at least find an apartment for her and Jackie.

When Ella spends the night at Will's place she thinks that she is living in a dream but whilst everything seems to be good alright the last thing she was expecting was to be hurt. So the next morning when Ella just openly asks what's going on between them she is extremely hurt when he refuses so answer half of her questions and to learn that for him there will never be anything more between them. After learning this she flees out of his place realising that she should never have gone for this and for her to have let her heart in the way.

What will happen now that Ella has walked out, will he go after her or just let her have her moment and what will happen when Laura turns up at Will's office. The best way for you to know any of this is for you to read this book, it keeps you interested from every single page. You won't regret picking it up.

Good fast read

This is a good series and I like how fast it reads, but it's starting to get a little repetitive and needs a little more sustenance

Great book! I'm hooked on this series and I can't wait until I read book four! A must read series that I think everyone would enjoy!

Like the previous books, this book leaves off where the last one did. Ella and Will are exploring their new-found relationship. Their relationship is purely sexual and lustful, but Ella is starting to wonder if she wants more from Will. Sure, she has his body, but does she have his trust or his respect? What happens when she wants more? Is this relationship worth continuing?

Will makes her feel alive, beautiful, and wanted, but what happens if she asks him for more and he doesn't feel the same? Will that be the end of their relationship?

This book was a quick read, but packed with so much drama! Ella's finally stood up for herself and took a stand. She knows what she wants and now she's finally voicing her feelings, which she hasn't done in the previous books.

One thing that kinda annoyed me with this book was Will. At times, it seemed that Will had a God complex and was so self-absorbed, I'm shocked Ella could fit in his house. He was mocking, annoying, and more than once I wanted to kick him where the sun don't shine, but despite all this, I still love this character. For some reason, his awful attitude works for his character. I like when he acts like a fool and acts self-righteous and then he realizes how he was acting and tries to change for the better. I know deep, deep down, he is a great guy and will step up to the plate to keep Ella by his side.

I can't wait to see what happens next for Will and Ella!! I recommend this series to everyone and remember, this series has to be read in order.

My favorite quote:

"There was no thrill on Earth I couldn't afford, but the greatest one by far was the smile of an attractive woman."

STARS: 5
POV: First
SERIES: Yes
CLIFFHANGER: Yes

Ella has been tempted by the boss, touched by the boss, and now teased by the boss. She is quite enjoying her time with Will. She didn’t know if she would be able to handle it all in the beginning. Her body is enjoying it all too well but now, her heart is getting tossed in with the equation. Can she handle the possible rejection if she lets him know how she feels? Does she risk it?

You can see in this book that the relationship is more than just purely about sex. There is a bond growing between Ella and Will. Ella still is very career oriented and Will is still not looking for something serious. However, neither can deny the pull they feel for one another. The sex between them is still off the charts hot and steamy. You just can’t spend that much time together and not start to feel something.

Here is where the teased part comes from the title. Will is teasing her with emotions. He knows her favorite food, her favorite drink; he is wining and dining her. A girl can’t help but get swept away with feelings. She knew he didn’t want more than a sexual relationship from the beginning but is there hope for more?

We’ll have to wait and see. The book ends with my heart in my stomach. I truly don’t see how this is all going to end between them. There are too many things against them. An ex-wife, a son, the work issues. What is next?? I’m on pins and needles waiting! The characters have a hold on me and won’t let go.

I can’t wait for the next book. I’m so enraptured by this story that I feel like a part of it. Go 1-click and get caught up if you haven’t read the first three in the series. It’s not one to miss.

I received a free copy to read and review.

Aptly named book because I was teased to death by these two. Will and Ella may not be a match made in heaven but they are definitely meant to be together. I enjoyed them going back and forth again trying to get to fruition. Will seems to dazzle Ella but I'm not sure he understands her much. I love the chapter staggering where I can get both sides to the story. Overall enjoyment was four stars. I can't wait to see what happens next.

I tend to skip over a lot of blabber that isn't needed. I kinda wish more happened instead of their thoughts. Anyways, Ella starts to have feelings towards will and confesses it to her. But will basically told her they will be nothing but casual sex between them. Just fun. She couldn't risk that and ended up ending things altogether. She walked out. At the end he feels like he lost her altogether.

Come on Will

I think Will needs to come to his senses. If he doesn't realize what his feelings are for Ella he may lose her for good.

Will, such an a**. I almost hope he does lose Ella for good. He's s feeling it, but will not say it. Love this series thus far. I have two books to go and I am sure I won't be long. The author leaves us with a cliff hanger on this one!! Hazel Kelly, great talent!!

Oooh

Trouble in paradise. Will is a bit of a d@#¢ in this one, but I suppose he can be with his money. Entertaining enough for me to carry on reading. I hope Ella gets one up on Will though, to put him in his place.
