Temptation
I thought I had everything under control when it came to being attracted to my boss.
I turned up to work when I needed to, and I met every demand Luca sent my way with a professional attitude.
I stood behind him each time he would bring another jezebel to company events, and I'd smile even though I wanted it to be me standing next to him.
I even helped dress those jezebels during wardrobe malfunctions, and I kept a smile on my face every time.
I done everything that was asked of me, and I didn't let me feelings take over.
Ever!
Until I did.
The temptation becomes too hard to resist when Luca drags me to Australia because his company is having a crisis.
I find myself in a country I've never visited before for Christmas without my family, but with Luca's large Italian family instead.
Seeing Luca semi-relaxed around his family has those feelings I've been hiding for the past five years surface.
And when Luca flirts back, the attraction I've been keeping under control takes over and things become heated between us.
The only thing is, will everything explode in my face or can I balance work and a relationship with my broody boss?

Fun in the sun with the man of my dreams,unfortunately that man is my boss.
Luca Bianchi is an Italian Amercian Alpha male, and he is Catalinas boss. And is his personal assistant. But that doesn't stop her from dreaming about him. Though he is a ladies man.
A company emergency happens and Catalina is required to go with Luca to Australia to meet his family and to work out who is ripping the family business off.
But Luca starts acting strange almost like he was jealous,or was Catalina imagining it all.
Good book to get wrapped up in the book and you'll find your self silently wishing mamma would knock a few years together.

Wonderful Aussie writer
I loved this book, as a fellow Aussie I picked up on the aussie isms throughout. Only thing that disappointed me was i felt it could have gone so much further and the characters could have been expanded on. Other than that I truly liked it.

An office romance
I liked this story. It was my first one by this author, but I will be reading more. The romance story line was well developed, but I just felt that the backstory could have been fleshed out a little more.
An enjoyable read.
