His Assistant Obsession

Rate this book
I’m the boss. I’ve been called a bully, a brute, unbearable. I’ve never cared about other people.
But she’s different. My new assistant. My obsession.

Khan
Eden walked into my office and met the beast of the boardroom, or so they call me, but it didn’t scare her off, not at all. Instead, she buckled down and became the best assistant I’ve ever had.
As for me, from first glance, I was lost. I need her close, I need to know everything that was going through her beautiful mind.
When thugs take over the event we are attending, trying to steal the special exhibit, I will protect Eden, no matter the cost.
I might fly private and live in luxury now, but I wasn’t brought up this way. I was brought up a street hustler, a violent bruiser, and I’m still that man, underneath my suit.
I’ll keep Eden safe, no matter what.
She belongs to me, and I don’t share.

Fate has a way of shifting our point of view on everything through someone else Khan sexy as all get out boss with a reputation of being an unbearable, unrelenting in achieving his goal at work, expecting others to work just as hard as he does every day and he is alpha personified, a little over protective (okay a lot 😊) but who complaining so when his new assistant walks in there is a shift in the air where he takes notice of her every move. Eden sweet, arriving to the office where she has a temp. job the boss man can’t keep an assistant and trying to look professional decided to wear her best friends heals when she can barely walk in them, but she intends to make it work so meeting the most sexiest man ever but he is so much older than her but still the hottest guy ever. The attraction is instant from the moment their eyes meet and as the day continues the attraction is intense with a strong magnetic pull with each thinking the other is either too young or too old however, fate seems to think they are perfect for each other and so the pull intensifies. So while at an event thieves try to steal the main piece and that was the a mistake but their biggest mistake was attempting to hurt his girl you see what most don’t realize is Khan comes from the streets so getting down and dirty to protect his girl isn’t a problem but will the thieves get away or will he put a hurting on them, will she accept him considering he is much older than her I mean they say age isn’t anything but a number, and can she calm the beast of a man while at the office, and will they find their own HEA?.

This story did a lot of leaping around and leaving things out. One minute something happened, the next it's the next day and you don't know how it got there. The spice level was pretty nil as well. The plot...well, there really wasn't one, so that was just wishful thinking that I could possibly write a review about one. This whole thing just fell flat on its face and never recovered enough even to attempt to get back up.
The MMC wasn't a very good character. The author didn't flesh him out enough to make him even remotely likable. There was hardly any background information on him, or even on the FMC, for that matter. There were hints here and there, but the author never settled on anything that would make the "real" to the reader. They were more like paper cut-outs than characters that felt like they'd leap off the page. I think that is an important element when writing a book...making the subjects almost life-like...and these weren't anywhere close to that.
The FMC was...bratty. Too bratty for the job of an assistant to a CEO. I mean, no one in their right mind would EVER talk to their boss the way this girl did. She was too snarky, too bold, and too out of place.
One thing to be said about this author is...she likes to re-use phrases. So far, in every book I've read of hers, the MMC would tell the FMC, "You’ve taken up all the space in my head". Umm...okay. Is that really necessary to put into ALL of your stories? It's a bit...hokey. There was such a poor attempt at a storyline that...well remember "the road to nowhere"? Yeah, this was the storyline/plot to nowhere. I can't even give it a one-star rating, and that's pretty sad.

Do you like office romance between the boss and his assistant? Do you like obsession romances where the H becomes instantly and overwhelmingly obsessed with the h? Do you like tons and tons of steam? Then this book NEEDS to be your next read!!!! It has all of those things and so much more!

When Eden begins a temp job as Khan’s assistant, she expects him to be difficult but she didn’t expect him to be beautiful or to be attracted to him. Khan lives his life by control and that control is quickly slipping away with Eden right outside his office. I LOVED both of these characters!! Eden is all sunshine and “kill them with kindness” mentality. Khan brought himself up from nothing but still has the street smarts and determination. Their attraction is instant, but Khan takes him time with his pursuit because he doesn’t date employees.

My absolute favorite thing about this book was its references to “The Princess Bride” which is my all time favorite movie. Little quotes here and there brought an instant smile to my face! I also loved the way that Khan used his wealth to better Eden’s life as well. There was a suspenseful twist that I didn’t expect but definitely enjoyed. It shows a different side of Khan and added a fantastic extra layer to this story. This book definitely gives all the feels so download it immediately and enjoy!

When I started reading Eden and Khan’s story I had a completely different expectation then what I got. It was not something bad, actually just the opposite. When you read many love stories they become predictable so it is refreshing when the author can go off course especially in a series and shake things up. While Khan by all means is all alpha male, hot and out to get what he wants. Eden is strong, smart and feisty as hell. However, there was this stalker vibe going from Khan and it brought confusion to the table. Does he really like Eden as this chemical attraction leads us to believe from the beginning with Eden working for a man that clearly no one else can survive working for, but apparently she can; or are his intentions pure and in her best interest. I was definitely hooked on continuing to see the book through every page to the end. I was so excited to know how Eden and Khan’s story ended. So, just like I said in the beginning, this was a different twist than expected and I really enjoyed it.

Khan and Eden . . .

Khan was surprised that his new temp, Eden, met him, the boss who usually scared everyone off with his brutish demeanor, then she made sure she was the best assistant he has ever had. He was attracted to her from their first meeting, obsessed actually, and felt his protectiveness rise up to keep her safe.

Khan’s own past history contains violence, living on the streets and needing to fight to survive. Though circumstances have changed, he is still that tough man underneath. So when thieves crash an event and put Eden in danger, Khan is ready to keep her safe and protected, no matter what he has to do to make that happen. Will Eden accept the violence within him? Will she realize his strength would never be directed at her but only there to protect the woman he loves? Recognizing their feelings for each other, could this be the start of something special?

Loved the story of Khan and Eden. Eden is a new temp office assistant who's new boss Khan is a brute, bully and hard to please. When Khan walks into the office and sees Eden he's blown away. He knows that she's his and he's going to do everything to keep her close to him. Eden shows Khan that she's made of sterner stuff and buckles down to show him. They butt heads but there is that sizzle underneath. There was so much attraction but will Khan be able to convince Eden that she belongs to him and him his world? This was a great addition to the series.

Excellent romance- best in the 'Obsession' series so far! Sunny Eden becomes, grumpy businessman, Khan’s temporary assistant. I loved the sparks that flew between these two right from the start; Eden’s tenacity & snark is off the charts as she refuses to let her demanding boss get the better of her. A truly enjoyable rom-com with the broody Khan giving into his feelings towards his feisty young assistant, although I really loved that Eden does not make this easy for him. A great read – can’t wait for the next one in this series!.

Eden is temp being sent to Aslan Securities, little did she know she would be an assistant to the CEO, Khan Aslan. The man is so gorgeous, this is not her dream job but she will make the best of it.

Khan was not expecting someone like Eden to walk into his office. He has to make her his, but he needs to move slowly or he will scare her off. She is only supposed to work for him a short time, but he wants to keep her much longer and not as his assistant.

This is a sweet and steamy read with awesome characters.

Finding his garden of Eden

His Assistant Obsession is the third book in the His Obsession series and it is the story of Eden and Khan. When Eden goes to work for Khan as his assistant the older man becomes immediately obsessed with the beautiful younger woman. His protective and possessive alpha comes out even before she is his., So when there is danger he is the one to protect her, at all cost, after all she is his obsession.
This is a quick read and you know what you are going to get going in. Nothing wrong with that at all as there are a few fun twists on the story-line which make it more entertaining.

“Baby, believe. I don’t just want you… I’m obsessed with you. I love you. I’d remake my world and yours to keep you with me,” I told her, fucking into her steadily as I spoke. She groaned, rising now. I could see the way her skin flushed and her hips wiggled against me. “I’m going to spoil you and give you the life you deserve. As many kids as you want, homes wherever you want to live, your own gallery to manage… whatever life you want, this is our world now, buttercup, and you can have it all,”

While not my favorite of Bailey’s books because the plot was all over the place, Khan’s love (obsession) with Eden and devotion to her takes the cake

Loved it!

My first Gia Bailey short story and it won’t be my last. Loved both Khan and Eden and their story and their lives. We found out more about Khan’s background more than Eden’s. I don’t think we ever did find out the the reason of Eden’s fallout with her spoiler spoiler. And their was one time she was super naive. I thought maybe it was a joke but she was definitely serious, I’m sure. lol

All in all, a great love story with the alpha hero I love, and the woman who he falls for that doesn’t take any bull.

I thoroughly enjoyed Khan and Eden's story. His Assistant Obsession by Gia Bailey kept me reading until the last page. Khan quickly becomes obsessed with his newest assistant Eden but she is convinced she doesn't belong in his world. However, she will soon learn that Khan is determined to convince her they belong together. Khan is going to turn his new temporary assistant into a permanent a part of his life but what happens when gunmen attack while they are at a black tie museum gala?

Hero billionaire boss, abrupt, workaholic
heroine temp secretary, hardworking

Didn’t get a sense of how old they were. I’m guessing 20s and 30s
No OTT JP behavior
Insta obsession for hero but heroine was a little bit stubborn, in denial
Some background on the hero. Virtually nothing on heroine
1 Sex scene happened close to the end. Lackluster
No separation/ OM/OW drama
HEA
Epilogue 1 yr out

The author has given us a wonderful older man/younger woman story that pulls us into the lives of Khan and Eden and does not let go. The story keeps us turning the pages as this obsession of Khan's becomes even stronger.

This was a good age gap/ office romance. Khan and Eden had an instant connection and it was clear and palpable for me as a reader. The story had both the instant connection and then still a rather slow burning romance and I enjoyed that. This was a good story.

I really enjoy a workplace romance and this one had great characters and decent chemistry. But the plot had holes about Eden's backstory and there weren't enough interactions between them to build the story. It's a fast read with a good ending.

★ “All of this craziness, for one woman, and one you just met as well”★

—>>> This was rather more cute and sweet than OTT extra spicy for me, and there was a highly possessive boss, but this was a good short read nevertheless, complete with a neatly buttoned HEA and epilogue. Mild action/drama, good characters.

Loved this one so much because Eden is so feisty. I enjoyed Khan so much because he was so stoic and underneath all that calm was a total and complete annihilation of his ambitions. All that consumed him now was to make Eden his completely. She doesn't make it easy on him but he just steamrolls right over her walls. So fun, can't wait to read more from this author!

I think this was my first book by this author. The story was fine. Something about the writing and pace made this feel like a much longer story than it is. A lot happened, quickly, but I also felt like a mostly natural progression. I expected more smut… that part felt lacking. I’ll probably read another from this author.

This is a fantastic book - over the top hero and a sassy heroine who find each other and make their own world. Great characters, just enough sass and of course a happily ever after.

Felt like there was too much idle chit chat or the pace was slow somewhat

The character of Khan could be more interesting and hot, than whatever OTT we were promised.
