Publisher's summary

Laurie Holcombe is out of a job, out of luck, and out of time. When a prestigious law firm hires her as an assistant to one of its senior partners, it feels like she might finally get back on her feet. All she has to do is put up with the whims of her infuriatingly icy boss, Diana. How hard could that be?

Diana Parker is Atlanta's top lawyer and isn't afraid to let everyone know it. She's driven, ruthless, demanding, and stuck in a failing marriage. Too bad she can't run her personal life as well as she runs her ordered office.

When a young assistant shows up with bright blue eyes, a cute Southern accent, and a streak of pink hair, Diana's sure she's all wrong for the job. And yet something seems to be pulling her and Laurie Holcombe together, drawing them into a secret, thrilling dance that's far too dangerous for a boss and employee.

Can they make rules for this powerful attraction, a way to keep each other at arm's length? But how do you resist the irresistible?

Contains mature themes.

I’m not sweating, you are.

Jesus. I’m not religious.
This has to be the hottest—nay, the HOTTEST f/f ice queen/older woman/I didn’t know I was gay romance novel yet.
It took a few chapters for me to warm up to the Southern accent, but I really couldn’t hear accents for long, due to the pulse in my face/heart palpitations/stirring in various body parts, etc.
It’s high praise to the author and orator when it’s 3:30am and I have no intention of turning the book off or going to bed...

The kind of books I love

The Cinderella story, well written story and characters are well developed. If Roslyn Sinclair wrote more books and they are narrated like this one I would like to listen to them all. A great listening.

Good story but sex gets monotonous

I don’t believe I’ve ever read a lesfic story with an hea ending but without a declaration of love. And I’m not a prude when it comes to erotica. But the sex often didn’t advance the story and often missed conveying a connection while over emphasizing the technical details. Even so, I enjoyed the story.

What an awesome book from start to finish!

It’s ungodly how many lesbian romance novels I have in my library... with that being said I’ve read/listened to hundred of stories. This lesbian erotica will be a new stable in my lineup. I haven’t heard of this author before but I will definitely search for more books like this one! So hot, so intriguing, and so much fun to listen to! Five stars all the way!

The Audiobook is even better

I loved the book when I read it. Then I listened to the Audiobook and it was even better.
Took me a second to get used to the narrator, but it only lasted for a second.
Roslyn Sinclair pulls you into the story and makes you want nothing more than to keep listening.
Incredible characters. Scorching hot chemistry.
Absolutely amazing!
