I made a horrible mistake. And now I have to sell my body and soul to fix it…
I knew from the start that working for Michael Fowler would cause problems. It seems like this arrogant bosshole wants a slave, not an assistant. But he’s not only cruel and calculating, he’s also bruised and beautiful. Equal parts hot as fire and cold as ice. Suddenly he starts calling me into his office, asking me questions that make me shiver. I know I should say no, I should walk out of his office and never look back. But he’s magnetic, and the dark desires and secrets he keeps are like a drug. He makes me want to get on my knees and bend over his desk. I’d be lying if I said I don’t enjoy it. I do enjoy it, more and more each time. Soon enough, I learn about his real intentions. I don’t know if the fragile trust we’ve built can ever hope to survive the truth of who he is.
And the fact that he will be the father of our unborn child.
"On His Desk" from bestselling author Mia Faye is a stand-alone second chance romance, between enemies who become lovers, with a baby surprise and a guaranteed HEA you don't want to miss! No cheating. No cliffhangers.
I was obsessed with this book, couldn’t put it down. Then the ending came along and I wouldn’t have known it was the ending if it wasn’t for “the end” to be there. I’ve never read such a rushed ending.
If anyone read "Stuck-Up Suit by Vi Keeland" would immediately know this book is a rip off of that, only difference - every time the main characters are in the same place, they are having sex, very hot and steamy sex, well written. That's the only difference they had from Graham and Soraya. And the author did try to bring some changes like how the leads met in plane instead of subway but the same barking in the phone situation along with hero losing the Phone and heroine finding it. Same rude reception when she went to return the phone and then taking her ahem ahem picture to make it his screensaver. One creativity, heroine working as hero's PA whereas Soraya worked for ask Ida, Graham has his own business. Then hero's ex best friend who was married to his ex fiance died, said ex fiance let hero know he is the father of her 6yr old daughter, same as Graham and his ex, the ex trying to live with hero for the sake of their daughter, coming onto him naked, warning the heroine off.... I mean i know there are lots of books with the same plot but at least there should have been some twists here and there, some new perspective but unfortunately there wasn't. And the ending was the worst ending ever. It was like the author lost interest and was tired of copy pasting, didn't wanna waste anymore time writing an epilogue. It's been 5 yrs since "Stuck up suit" came out but still reading a total rip off kind of turned me off, even though the sex scenes were so steamy. But not very happy with the author's creativity.
Terrible book. Well sure, if all you want to read are sex scenes, this is the book for you, but there's no real plot (girl becomes pa to guy, has lots of sex, even with his partner walking in once, guy finds out he's a dad and lets daughter and daughter's mum move into his house, girl doesn't like that, mum tries to break them up, girl decides to trust guy, the end), the editing leads a lot to be desired (apparently Michael watches Michael get married, and his daughter's name is usually Elly, but it could also be Ally, and once Elle, the author doesn't seem to know the difference between your and you're) and the end just...stops. Seriously, I wouldn't bother with this book unless you just want to read about lots and lots of sex. Tons of it. Personally I like a story that the sex scenes enhance, and even then I can do without the sex completely, but with this book I found myself skipping whole pages, because there was too much and it was too graphic. I have read books by this author before and while they are on the raunchy side I usually like the characters and the story. Both were lacking here.
Diciamo che possiamo definirlo un gran bel p0rn0, quindi to sum up, se viviamo questo libro in quest’ottica è un signor libro, come romance 3 stelle, come romanzo 2… ma tanto sappiamo cosa ci interessa in questo tipo di letture
So many things wrong with this; On his desk? I found she was mostly under it, but definitely not on it, as suggested.. Enemies to lovers? No, I didn't get this vibe either... What was the kids name? I'm so confused as it changed at least 3 times and in one sentence alone, there were 2 different names thrown out? Mixups with the characters as well... Disappointing, poorly edited and seemed very rushed. I'm surprised I made it to the end of the book to be perfectly honest!
Me decepcionó este libro? Si, quizás porque yo misma me hice el hype en mi cabeza pero, que pedo con este libro. En primera, el protagonista me calló mal, en lo único que pensaba era en tener relaciones y ya; en segunda, ese final que? El problema me lo resolvieron en dos capítulos cortos, no me lo creía la verdad. En fin, prácticamente el libro es 80% escenas spicy y 20% trama. Y ya no pongo nada más porque haré spoiler jajaja.
Esperaba mucho más de esta libro. No voy a abundar mucho, pero solo diré que tiene el final mas abrupto y sin sentido de todos lo que he leído hasta ahora.
This is the steamy story of Michael and Ava. This book is steamy hot. This couple can't take their hands away from each other. The story began when they were at the same plane to New York and she heard a man talking on the phone sounded arrogant. He was in first class and when she saw him, she felt completely attracted, however, she was passing through a broken heart after her ex left her to marry other woman. He left his phone behind and she took it to give i back to him, but he disappeared. What are the odds, that the office of the handsome arrogant man is in the same building that she will have a job interview? She confirmed his was an arrogant when she stopped by his office to return his phone, and he even show to say thanks. In an impulse, she decided to left him a "little surprise" and changed the background with an inappropriate photo. What would be the probability to see him again? None... unless he was the one interviewing her. She got the job, and more than a job. None of them were in a serious relationship mode, so why not a fling? None of them wanted to put their hearts on risk. But every day, they fall stronger in love. However, they won't suspect that the past on his life will hunt them and may destroy their fling/relationship/love. I loved this story, really nice characters and plot. This book keep you reading and wanting more of the characters. Highly recommended.

Really happy I have kindle unlimited and didn’t purchase this book
I’m honestly so disappointed. The chemistry between H & h was amazing. I’m a bit satisfied with the relationship progression but the ending…. Terrible. I’d have like it to tie up some loose ends. Also- I can’t believe I’m saying this- I would have loved to have seen more of the couple doing other things together. Not just sex. More banter. The ending was rushed and left me feeling like there relationship didn’t have much depth. I’m disgruntled a the H for allowing another woman to feel him up and kiss him all the time and NEVER putting her in her place. If you don’t like that then don’t read it. I should’ve read the reviews to be warned.
I also HATE that the book’s description hinted at pregnancy by “He’s going to be the father of our unborn child”
*Spoiler*
Doesn’t happen. They literally say I love you to each other and BOOM “THE END” I’m really glad I have kindle unlimited and I didn’t pay for this book. Usually if I love an author or book I’ll purchase it but this will not be happening. If you have kindle unlimited or you get a free copy of this book and bored sure read it.
Ava is on a flight to New York. She sits by this guy who is working on his laptop and doesn't talk to her at all, then she turns away from him believing he is rude, because he wants his space! He loses his phone. She finds it and runs off the plane to try and give back to him, but he is long gone. She ends up with her best friends home. She has moved to New York City for good and has to get a job. She is asked to come in for a interview and finds its the same person who was on the airplane. Just her dumb luck to get a job working for the guy. He finally realized he wants Ava in his office as his PA then he realizes he's interested in her as a sex object. Ava and Michael start a twisted affair that was no strings attached. Not to get seriously involved. As you read this story it gets very interesting between them in their love affair. Every sexualized story to read . Exciting to see how this story comes alive with Ava and Michael! Enjoy yourself with this author's book. A few mistakes in editing the story but its a great story to read otherwise.!!!!
Ava gets a glimpse of Michael as she is getting off of her airplane when she moves to NYC to live with her best friend. Ava gets a job as Michael's PA after having a bit of fun with his phone. They are immediately combustible. They agree that there is no romance. Michael's former best friend passes away and his wife confesses that the child Michael thought was his friend's was actually Michael's. Paige manipulates Michael into letting them live with him. He is thrilled to get to know his daughter. Michael and Ava start to grow apart. They rekindle as Michael insists to Paige nothing will happen between them. Ava comes to realize that she is falling for Michael. He enjoys being with Ava and the sex is phenomenal. He thinks about her all the time, but is not willing to admit he has fallen in love with her too. My heart hurt for Ava as she heals from a previous bad relationship only to fall for Michael and realize there is no future there either. Great read.

I really enjoyed reading On His Desk: An Enemies To Lovers Romance!!! All about Ava Bradley who is a Personal Assist & Michael Fowler who is a Financial Investment Broker and part owner of Hyperion an investment group. Michael & Ava cross paths on a flight from Washington DC to New York City, in the process of getting off the plane he can’t take his eyes off of Ava & jostles his suitcase & briefcase dropping his phone in his haste to depart! Ava picks it up, with her bff’s help they unlock the phone so Ava knows who to return it to! Read about Ava & Michael and the tumultuous prank she plays on him, that gets her a job working for him!!! This is a page turner, that I could not put down!!! The emotions are off the chart, as well as the pleasurable moaning & sighing and toe curling scenes are literally through the story!!! Looking forward to reading another one of the authors enemies to lovers story!!!
Michael and Ava both come from heartbroken relationship. His ex left him for his best friend because she wanted the money and prestige. Ava was in love with her boss who left her and marry another friend. She left Washington DC to visit with her best friend since elementary. Her goal was to work awhile until she got over the betrayal. She saw Michael on her flight from DC and her impression he was arrogant and rude. He lost his phone when he was leaving the plane. Ava found his phone and she and her friend Miley broke into the phone and found his name. What Ava didn’t know that the job she was interviewing for was to be Michael PA. When he saw her in the interview he wanted to offer her the job because he remembered their attraction from the plane. Great story that I enjoyed. Lots of steamy sex scenes with a happy ever after.
Okay, let me start by saying by this should not be advertised as enemies to lovers. The first time they ever seen each other, they had a “connection”. & then when he hired her, they were just flirtatious. Nothing “enemy” about it. This is just an office romance. & maybe an attempt at a love triangle? Second of all, I seen the grammatical error involving ‘your’ and ‘you’re’ a few times….😬 & last but not least- what the hell kind of ending was that?? Like, the “third act break-up” lasted all of 5 pages and then bam they’re back together and THE END. literally. That’s written right after they kiss and make up. No epilogue, no satisfying closure at all. But if you’re only looking for smut, here ya go. There’s lots of steam!
I rarely write reviews. This was awful. I feel like people should be warned. So many wholes in the story. Poorly written and little to no character development. *SPOILER * Your ex tells you that you have a child that you didn’t know about and NEVER address it?!?! No lawyers or discussion of lost years. The ex just became a widow and moves into his house with no mention of any grief that she or her daughter is going through due to losing husband/father. NO GRIEF! At 80% when the exit manipulated him to stay living in his home after he declares his love for female main character, I gave up.
I read 2 to 3 books a week and listen to 1 or 2 as well. This was one of the worst books I’ve attempted to read.

Wow, such a great couple! They were made for each other. Michael and Ava... Ava is on a flight to NY to escape her hometown and heartbreak. Michael is on the same flight in first class yelling into his phone being an a$$ Ava sees a phone on the floor of the plane and picks it up as she believes it's his and will see about returning it to him. When she gets to his office to return it to him he has his assistant accept it for him never bothering to come out to say thank you so she devises a little plan and then leaves the phone with his assistant. (you will die lol)
Editing needed. So who was he really? What was his real intentions? Ava was never pregnant, no unborn child mentioned. Those were things mentioned in "About The Book". Wasn't much of a story really. Mainly sex with little bits of story here and there. Why doesn't Paige tell Ella that Michael is her real father? How could he ask Ava to accept his decision to allow Paige to live with him after she lied about the roofing repairs and lead in the water pipes? He also knew Paige was wanting to be a family, constantly trying to have sex with him. Totally screwed up story that made no sense.
A vicious triangle, emotional blackmail, lies and deceit, betrayal and cheating--Ava and Michael have personally dealt with a lot. When Ava comes to work for Michael, they have an immediate physical attraction to one another and begin a hot, steamy affair with the understanding that nothing more would develop between them. Can they learn to trust one another and find true love and happiness?

The sex part, i like :). I didnt like how the author protrayed Michael once Paige and Elly comes into the scene. How can you think of allowing your ex to stay with you without considering the feelings of the woman you are falling in love with? Sighs...at least discuss and pre-empt her. I felt like the plot was somehow lost in the second half of the book and the ending was rushed and super abrupt. Kudos to the author for the good editing though.
I really enjoyed this book it had alot more depth than just a boss and his P.A having an affair.
2 people who have been hurt in the past unable to get over their own fears of commitment and trust. Ava is sassy and very quick witted and absolutely not a pushover and I think I love her for that alone. Michael is stuck between a rock and a hard place but God sometimes he doesn't see what's right in front of him.
I love Mia Faye's style of writing and this book was no exception definitely recommend this book and her other works also.
If you read romance for the erotica then this is the book for you! If you read romance because you love the story and want to fall in love with the characters, move on. The storyline is pure trash. As you read, you will start to hate almost all the characters. I’m not one of those people who can start a book and not finish it. I will say that you hate the characters so much that you’ll find yourself reading more than usual. But at the end…I truly wished I had let this one go.
I really enjoyed this book and the characters, I could not stand his EX, she was very manipulative and would lie a lot to get her way, but I did enjoy the story line, the only thing I would have done differently was at the end, I don't want to give anything away, but at the end, the HEA was not expanded on. But overall I give it 5 stars cause it was a good read. This is the first book I have read by this author, but I will read more of her books.
Ava and Michael somewhat meet in a plane. There’s a spark. They part. They meet again and they begin their affair. Ava had a past that colors her view of the world, as does Michael. The intimate scenes outweigh the plot scenes. Not bad since I knew what I was getting into when I read it. If you are looking for a lot of intimate scenes with a little plot thrown in, then this is for you.
Love Michael and Ava together. Paige is a snake in the grass, she had a plan all along. Glad Michael could see through her!! Ava dnd Michael have a steamy sex life just for each other , jealous streak also. Past intentions hold them up but in the end they find their HEA. Just wish there was more , not just I love you and end the story, need another 2-3 chapters or at least an epilogue . Just saying and then what about Miley?

Michael and Ava were a good match. I liked how their relationship progressed. The story was strong until Paige was brought into the mix. Ava knew what Paige was up to and was using Elly to her advantage. The story went down because it started to become weak. Yes Ava should've trusted Michael but when the other woman made it clear what she wanted, she felt she didn't have a chance to have all his love. The ending was too rushed.
love Mia Faye books, but this one felt a bit too rush, and is the same plot (story line) of a book I read earlier this year. If it wasnt for the same story line, I would gave given it 5 stars. The relationship between Ava and Michael was amazing and their chemistry was very off the charts, how they didnt want feelings involve and at the end they fell in love. I will recommend the book.

Story of a developing relationship with twist. What guy lets an ex move in when committed to someone else, even if extenuating circumstances? Gem of wisdom is that marriage requires complete trust. Shows how people are affected by past relationships. main emphasis on voyeurism into their lives. Trashy. Poor editing-character name misspelled, incomplete punctuation, and English grammar error detracted from story.
This was an emotional read. Such torment for Ava. Being burned by someone you love can leave scars that run deep. Ava has to let go of the mistrust she learned from her ex and try and learn to trust Michael. Meanwhile. Michael learns something that changes his life. Can he and Ave put the pieces back together and be together. Got to read the book. I highly recommend reading this book Great job Mia Faye!
