Promoted: Secretary to Bride!
What was I thinking? As if a new dress and a pair of borrowed hopes-and-dreams shoes were going to get me noticed by my scrummy boss! After all, he has barely looked at me in the last three years…
But last night, after Jarrod drove me home from that posh work party, things seemed different, and for one crazy moment I felt sure he was going to kiss me! Oh, well, it will be back to business on Monday.

Loved this story! I was a little disappointed in my last Jennie Adams book, but this one certainly made up for it. I guess they can't all be winners.
Jarrod and Molly were so cute. I loved the fact that Molly had been in love with Jarrod for a long time, but he didn't really notice her until she had a slight makeover, although he trusted her implicitly and relied on her so much for his business needs. Molly referred a lot to fairy tales and Cinderella (Mollyrella) in the book as she felt like she belonged in a different world than him.
Jarrod had issues from his childhood stemming from the indifferent and sometimes cruel treatment of his heinous parents. He felt he didn't understand how to love and convinced himself he could never give that to anyone. It was obvious as the book went on just how much the opposite was true. He fell so hard for Molly it was unreal, but he didn't realize it until the end.
My favorite thing about this author's work is the slow buildup she always gives to the romance. Her characters never fall into bed on page 1, but instead fall slowly and deeply in love before they take that step. It's not always you find that on contemporary romance, but especially in Harlequins. Her Australian settings never fail to delight.

Wasn't much interested in this novel. It was so quick to read that I finished during a commute home. Wasn't blown over by the Cinderella-fairy tale of a secretary falling in love with her boss. Meh.

It's a nice story about Jarrod and Molly
