Rate this book
A powerful Contemporary Romance. Here is the first book in the ‘The Playboy’ Series by Lucia Jordan, written in her signature style of high passion and emotion. Can Ashlyn learn to give up control and just let lust…and maybe even love…take over? Ashlyn Cane is the ambitious and strong-willed CEO of Amass Energy, with her focus squarely on her career’s future. Her hard work and take-charge sensibility is what got her to where she is today, demanding nothing but the best from her employees. But when Ashlyn begins the search for a new P.A., she meets a brazen but dangerously seductive male assistant who begins to challenge everything she thought she knew about herself. Lance Matthews is perfect for the job. Not only is she drawn in deep by his irresistible magnetism, Luke knows exactly what Ashlyn really needs, even if she doesn’t. And what Ashlyn really needs is to be shown that life’s a lot more fun – and pleasurable – when she’s completely relinquished control … Only mature readers should download this book

This book was not the best the storyline was mostly business talk. The main character was basically a woman who likes to be by herself. The book was kind of dull in the way of romance the characters did not show any chemistry everything was done out of business.

Second time reading this book. Enjoyed it very much. Letting go of her power and realizing what she needed to be truly happy.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
A high-powered CEO gets matched with a bold male assistant who wants to show her the pleasure of losing control. Ashlyn and Lance’s dynamic starts out spicy, but the story moves so fast that it loses some emotional weight. The workplace setup is promising, but the chemistry lacks the finesse needed to make this more than just a sexy scenario. Enjoyable, but not as compelling as others in her catalog.

Control

She had never given up control of her life before until he walked in. They went to Houston on business and fell into bed together. He was always the calm in charge kind of guy. Never over stepping his boundaries. She on the other hand had to be in charge. After they slept together she became outrageous in her demands. Always letting him know she was the boss

Quick read

Story was well written, just couldn't get into Ashlyn, didn't care for her attitude towards her employees, they deserve respect. Even Lance's role reversal in the hotel room could pull me into the story.

Loved this book. Ashlyn is always in control of everything in her life, and Lance is a total alpha male, that wants to take the control away from her. At least in the bedroom. Can they make it work? I can't wait to find out.

Intriguing...but hot

This is not like the others, Ashlyn hires Lance as her assistant. He proves to be like non other, then after one night together he disappears. Very intriguing.

A nice switch in rolls

I like how the rolls seem reversed. An upright yet strong woman and a calm quiet man who changes her outlook in life.

The Playboy moves quickly!

Fast moving story. The sparks are quickly firing up. With two strong personalities. Looking forward to the next chapters. Who will control whom?
