Small-Town Boss

Another Shot at Love #3

by Em Petrova

The Foxfire cousins share a last name, a passion for the outdoors…and really bad luck with love. None of them believe in second chances, but Fate sure does like to flaunt pretty women at them…Axel Foxfire, aka Big Ax, thought he prepared for the day when his father passed and he took over the family logging company. But keeping the business afloat proves harder than it looks on paper. Not only is the company floundering financially, but he can’t figure out what drained the funds in the first place. And each day he spends in the office poring over books becomes harder with the temptation of his sultry bookkeeper, Eva, mere feet away from him. What the shy and all too alluring woman doesn’t know is Ax can’t quit thinking about putting more smiles on her face as well as how much he wants to pin her to his bed—or over the nearest downed tree.Widow and mother of a young son, Eva struggles to make ends meet. Her late husband left her with very little, unless she counts the big fat crime he committed against the company where she’s now employed. Each time she attempts to speak about the matter to Ax, something prevents the words from passing her lips—and more and more often it’s Ax himself silencing her with his smoldering kisses.Ax should find more control when it comes to his employee, but damn if he doesn’t want to shield her and her son from life as much as he wants to awaken her slumbering libido. Problem is, he’s broke and Eva deserves to be pampered like the princess she is. As Eva’s secret swells to huge heights, so do her feelings for the dirty-talking and intense logger. But she needs this job more than love…or could it be too late?

Em Petrova has fast become a favourite author, with her easy writing style and fun, heartfelt and steamy love stories.

The characters always have a special kind of chemistry and even when circumstances or events beyond their control threaten the very fabric of their relationship, or their sheer stubbornness puts obstacles in their way; Ms Petrova’s lovers always rise above adversity, take a chance and often have a laugh along the way.

Mason and Eva are a wonderful, engaging couple who make you sigh and gush with romantic delight, and depict the real meaning of love.

Storyline was good but proofreading was nonexistent.

Axel and Eva have a good story. Author had some difficulty remembering what she wrote. Page 122 He pulled off her panties and threw them aside.
Page 124 She pulled her panties off....
Hard to keep up with who said what when author didn't start a new paragraph when the person speaking changed.

"Fallen" (Boss Lumberjack Romance) by Em Petrova is a great read. I loved Mason and Eva's story. This book is full of passion, lumberjacks, suspense, romance, and more. I'd love to read more about these characters in the future! Highly recommend to all fans of romance, lumberjacks, and hot reads.

Wow! A fast read that had heart and heat. Mason and Eva had the chemistry that burns bright and so hot, but there's secrets and then accidents. I couldn't stop reading until the end.

Another quick, hard-to-put-down read. There are big secrets between Eva and her boss, Mason, but the sparks between them are bright. I loved how Eva took on the task of repaying her late husband's debt all by herself while trying to raise her son. Her strength of character, even when she allowed Mason control in the bedroom, endeared her to me. Mason had his own issues to work through, but the one thing he knew he wanted was Eva, and he made her his priority. When things fell apart, my emotions went on a roller coaster ride for a bit until the HEA. I enjoyed this story and highly recommend it.

I received a copy of this story, and this is my unsolicited review.

A single Mom trying her best to stay afloat and deal with the mess her deceased husband left her with never expects to find the love ans support she does with her boss Mason. Mason can't deny his desires anymore and sparks fly and ignite between Eva and himself.

The building relationship between Eva and Mason is addictive and a great read!

This was a quick read but hard to put down. The characters draw you into the story and hold you there to the end. This author has a unique writing style and I love reading her work. Mason and Eva are attracted to one another but their journey to happiness isn't always smooth. Loved it, a must read!

I voluntarily read and reviewed this book; all opinions expressed are my own.

[Wendy Livingstone · Rating 4 out of 5]

Eva is working hard to repay her late husband’s debts, and raising a young son alone. Mason is her boss, and the attraction between them is intense. Theirs is certainly a rollercoaster journey ride.
This is a quick, fast paced read, and this author never seems to disappoint with her work. I was hooked and intrigued throughout.

I loved this book. Eva was just a widowed mother trying to stay on her feet and provide for her son. While having the hots for her boss.
Steam factor 10.
