The Courtship Maneuver, Book 3
Introducing The Courtship Maneuver, the hot and sexy new series by Alexa Wilder!
Chloe Henson is in love with her boss. Completely, totally, head over heels in love. She knows he doesn't feel the same way - she doesn't expect him too. Sam Logan is successful and wealthy, and he only dates supermodels. When he could have any woman in Las Vegas, why would he want his shy, abundantly curvy assistant? Determined to ignore her heart, Chloe puts her feelings on hold. But when her brother disappears, and she ends up in the cross-hairs of the Russian mob, she has nowhere to turn. Except to Sam.
Sam Logan has a problem. He has a thing for his assistant, but he knows he can't act on it. Chloe's the best assistant he's ever had, and over the three years they've worked together, she's become his best friend. Chloe is so shy, he knows one wrong move will send her running. When her irresponsible brother rips off a mob boss and vanishes, Chloe is in danger, and Sam's tired of waiting to make his move. The best way to keep her safe is to make her his. But with bullets flying and betrayal around every corner, can Sam convince Chloe that this is more than just a fling?
**This hot and steamy alpha billionaire romance is perfect for fans of Hannah Ford, Lila Monroe, Cassie Cross and J.S. Scott**

BOOK THREE EXCERPT
Even my most heated fantasies of Sam hadn’t included having sex with him in his office. My imagination hadn’t dared to go that far. But there was one thing that had crept into my secret dreams. I’d always envisioned doing it at his desk, my body hidden beneath the bulky furniture while he lounged back in his chair and let me pleasure him.
The couch would do well enough. Peeking over my shoulder to reassure myself that the door was safely closed, though I already knew it was locked, I slid off Sam’s lap. He murmured a protest, but I ignored him. I stood before him in my proper suit, the power of his need flowing through me, making me brave. Taking a step back, I raised my hands and began to unbutton my jacket. Sam froze in the middle of reaching for me and slowly sat back. I bit my lip, looking down at his face, his blue eyes burning, the flush of passion on his cheekbones. He was mine. And I was going to show him how much I wanted him.

OK, I didn't want to give my review before I read all three books in the series. OMG!!! I love these books!!! I would have one disappointment, it wasn't long enough. I wanted more and more. But Im sure once we dive into Axel's story it will be worth it. I love that Sam finally saw what he had in Chloe. She was a woman that always stood by her boss and never thought more could ever come of it. He only dated woman that were more model then like her with all the curves. But one down pour and things changed. THANK GOODNESS!!! Chloe was not weak by any means. She was a strong woman that wanted to protect her brother. Even though we all knew he didn't deserve it. And Sam just wanted to protect Chloe and keep her close, REAL CLOSE. There were a few moments where I thought Sam was thinking of going a little BDSM but his caring for Chloe was more to make her understand how dangerous matters were. I would HIGHLY recommend this book and the Wedding Rescue. They are both excellent books. I cant wait for Axel's.
I already cant wait for Stubborn Suitor 2.

Book 3 we are still watching as they meet with a Mafia mob boss that admits that Nolan is working for him but is missing. We also watch as Chloe finally realizes that Sam is for real about his feelings and that he wants forever with her. We watch as Nolan's friend kidnaps Chloe and Sam and Axel both have to find her and Nolan finally does the right thing and comes in so that they can get his sister back. We also get to see the wedding we have all been waiting on happen. This is a wonderful series and I can't wait to read more by Alexa Wilder

Wow, the conclusion is amazing. It's intense, sexy and full of lots of yumminess. Chloe and Sam finally get to an understanding aobut her safety and their relationship. The situation with Nolan finally comes to an end. I really hope It's a fantastic H.E.A. I loved, loved, loved it and can't wait to see what Alexa writes next. I'm really hoping it's Axel get his story next.
I received an ARC for my honest review.

I received an ARC from the author in exchange for an honest review. The conclusion of the three book series and what an end to a wild ride for Chloe and Sam. So much happens to these two but they hold strong and make it through. Now let's see what happens to Axle! Can't wait for the next adventure Alexa takes us on.

I receive this book as an ARC. I liked it as a series but reading the Wedding Rescue is helpful to get the back story of some of the other character. A sweet romance between a boss and his executive assistant. She loves him but just needs a push. The push comes from her wayward brother, who is hiding from the mob.

Book 3 - These are rather short and I read all three in one day while doing other things.
If you have now made it to the final book, you know what I'm talking about in that this is not your typical office romance. Such a wonderful series and you will not be disappointed.

I decided to read all the books before reviewing them. I really really enjoyed these books. Who doesn't want a story like these two.
Both loveable characters from the start. Boss & assistant trying to ignore their feelings for each other until her brother happens! You just know that Chloe & Sam belong together from the minute you start reading. My fave of the trilogy so far.

Book three was the most gripping of the series so far. Chloe has a heart of gold, but her loyalty to her brother gets her into trouble. This was definitely not the usual office romance. I loved it!
I am looking forward to reading about Axel. He seems like a tough nut.

LOVED this book! I've loved everything I've read by Alexa Wilder so far, and this series was no different. Can't wait until Axel's book! I received an ARC of this book from the author, but I would have read it anyway.

In the final book of the series, Sam and Chloe have moved in together and are trying to help her brother Nolan. Due to Chloe’s desire to help her brother she puts herself in danger. This book continues to evolve their relationship. Another winner for Alexa Wilder.

These 3 short books, make up the whole story, they have to be read together. I can tell they are going to be full of interest. They are fast moving and short. I really enjoyed reading them.

Chloe. You are probably one of the most annoying heroines I've ever read about.
