** This boxed set is Marly and Jasper's complete novel length story with no cliffhanger! ** Marly West has one goal - fly under the radar at Draconia Fashions before anyone figures out the real reason she took the job. Which should be easy since her bigger size makes her virtually invisible in an environment geared toward skinny fashion models. Marly figures the worst that can happen is she'll get fired ... until she catches the eye of company CEO Jasper Kenney and her troubles go from bad to worse. Jasper Kenney has sworn off women. They're all empty-headed bimbos that are after his money. So why cant he get Marly West out of his thoughts? A forbidden encounter puts them both in a compromising position. Will Marly and Jasper be able to resume business as usual, or will they get burned by the sizzling attraction smoldering between them? This book is for ages 18+ due to sexual content.
This needed major editing, and less exclamation points. The timing was all wrong all the time. They would talk about something that happened the day before as though it had happened that morning...more than once. Also no concept of fashion industry timelines or how long it takes to open a restaurant. Jasper said something toward the end saying it was months ago that Marly/Marley(it was spelled both ways...on the same page) first spoke up. But from my understanding prior it had only been about a week to two weeks tops if not a few days. The exclamation points made everyone seem like perky tweens. None more so than Sarah. Even for an erotica the "romance" was just freaking weird. We're supposed to believe that Jasper is 31, but I felt like I was reading about a little kid with his first crush/girl friend. All the characters were weakly done. I just can't. It felt more like a bitchy teenage telling of an office romance than anything I've read in the genera before. Note to author, you don't need to skinny shame people just because your heroine is plus size. It was repetitive and jumped to other character's povs that weren't important. The story telling was just poor all around. Thankfully it was a free read on KU
