Like a F*****g Boss
Talia has been working for 3 months at ARC Industries Ltd as a temp, assisting the designers in her department. Everyone is nervous about the imminent arrival of the new CEO, Theodore Solomon, and wondering what it means for their jobs. Talia is not having a good day ... she's late coming back from lunch, has taco sauce on the new skirt she's wearing which she'd planned on returning, and nearly got run over by a car. Talia hoofs it to the conference room for the CEO's speech, and not only is she late, but she disrupts it by dishing about her bad day and asking her bestie Bryde "Did the boss man show up yet? Is he bald, fat and ugly like we thought?" That's when the room goes quiet, and Talia notices everyone staring at her, including the hot new CEO. Uh oh. Goodbye dreams of going permanent. Talia tries to make an escape when the meeting ends but her supervisor Lyra tells her that the CEO wants to speak to her. This is so not going to end well. GULP!
Theo the CEO speaks to Talia about punctuality, and as she's leaving the conference room, Talia falls forward and rips her skirt, giving Theo quite the show. Talia is a curvy woman and wearing a thong underneath her skirt, and beyond embarassed about her wardrobe malfunction. On the bright side, Talia's relieved that she hasn't been fired. Talia is very attracted to Theo but knowing that his type isn't good for her, tries to put him out of her mind. Easier said than done because she's always running into Theo, and he's always hitting on her. But the jerk is dating her friend Ingrid, and Talia is no man stealer. When Talia finds out that Ingrid and Theo are just good friends, she becomes Theo's booty call. But when Talia overhears Lyra gushing to some girls about Theo being such a gentleman while they were away for work and asked her out for dinner, she doesn't want to be Theo's dirty little secret anymore and tells Theo she doesn't want to see him anymore.
Like a F*****g Boss is a fun story that's laugh out loud funny, wildly entertaining and downright steamy. Quinn has created some very memorable and lovable characters who get under your skin and I found myself getting caught up in their story. I could not put this book down and can't wait to read Like a F*****g Lady, the next book in the Run the World series.
Like a F*****g Lady
Talia and Theo are back for more loved up shenanigans in Like a F*****g Lady. Talia and Theo no longer need to sneak around in secret, now that Theo has declared to the world that he and Talia are an item with a PDA in front of Talia's bitchy supervisor Lyra and some office girls. As we all know, office gossip travels faster than the speed of light, so everyone and their dog will know what Lyra and the office girls know after Theo and Thalia walk out of the kitchen together. Which should be great, right? Until Theo's enemies come out of the woodwork, an enemy who won't be happy until Theo and those he loves are completely destroyed. Hmm ... maybe being outed as Theo's ladylove isn't such a great idea after all.
Theo is away a lot on business and Talia is juggling work with school. Life has gotten very busy for Theo and Talia but they make the most of their time together. In bed. Things are going great but Theo's keeping secrets from Talia because he doesn't want to rock the boat. Talia quits her job at ARC to do an internship at the prestigious Sol Media as part of her school assignment. Talia's gorgeous new boss Carter who looks like he just stepped off the cover of Italian Vogue is putting the moves on her. Will Theo's secrets drive Talia into Carter's arms?
Like a F*****g Lady is an entertaining story that's funny, suspenseful and steamy. Quinn has created another fun and exciting story that I could not put down.

Like a F*cking Boss
This was a great book!! I loved Talia, gutsy take no prisoners kinda woman. Theo is without a doubt an alpha male, a hot alpha male !!

Loved this second instalment!! This is a story featuring more of Talia and Theo. We first met them in Like a F'cking Boss, so if you haven't read that, grab it, you won't be disappointed!!
In this book we learn more of Theo's past. His enemies will stop at nothing to try to destroy him, and unfortunately, Talia is in the firing line. However Theo will always protect what's his, and make no mistake Talia is his. The question is though, Does she need Theo to protect her or can she do it herself??

This was a two in one book,I enjoyed both parts. Talia was a curvy girl with attitude, and that was what Theo needed! The first half was them getting to the bedroom, finding their lust for one another and satisfying it. It was all from Taila side, but second half was from both. I enjoyed the second half more. I like to know what Theo was thinking, and what is plans was with Talia. I liked he was a cocky, over protective man....BUT he didn't high handed Talia. Over all well written, great cast of characters, and nice plot and outcome. Enough drama to make it run smoothly and enough bedroom action with out it being over the top too much!

This is a great box set. These were the first books I had read by this author and I was pleasantly surprised. She knows how to write sexy hot love scenes and her characters are over the top leaving you wondering what will happen next.
I would not hesitate to recommend this author to any lover of erotic romance. She writes in a fast paced grab you by the seat of your pants way that will respond to this core demographic of readers.
Book 1 is steamy hot... and just when you think this story can't get any steamier, book 2 comes along to knock you off your feet.
Happy Reading...enjoy!

Interesting read
This book was not what I expected. Good story, interesting characters. Wish Theo's character had more depth and the relationship was deeper and more intimate without the hookups. Looking forward to reading more books , see if there is more character development.

Such a fun duet
I really like the lead female. Even once they got together she still worked hard. Went to school, paid her bills and handled her business. I appreciate that
