A Very Bossy Christmas

De: Kayley Loring

Narrado por: Connor Crais, Mackenzie Cartwright

What's the actual last thing you'd ever want your executive assistant to see you doing the morning after you had hot, drunk, angry sex with her in a terrible hotel room? Dancing around your terrible hotel room to "Come and Get Your Love" like Star-Lord in Guardians of the Galaxy - naked? Yeah. Me too.

And yet, here we are.

This isn't even the most unprofessional thing that's happened between us in the past couple of weeks.

The first was when I agreed to let her have Christmas Day off, but only if she goes with me to three family gatherings as my fake girlfriend.

The second was when she caught me belting out a Christmas song on stage in the awful hotel bar.

The third was the hot, drunk, angry sex that followed, but I do not regret it.

And she hasn't even found out the real reason I need her by my side this holiday season.

I need to pull it together before I do the dumbest, most unprofessional thing of all - fall head over heels in love with the only assistant who's lasted more than a month at the job and claims to hate me and my moods more than she hates eggnog.

And I've seen how much she hates eggnog.

This audiobook is dual narration, with portions that are duet-style.

I stan Piper

I read the book first, so my review includes those initial thoughts and after a listen with the audio, I edited with narrator thoughts.

What a sexy sexy book. If you want some sarcasm and banter with your enemies to lovers, this is it. Seriously, it is.

Maddie is the executive assistant to Declan. Basically she’s the super efficient right arm to Declan’s real estate lawyerly things.

They are both hot and both simultaneously want to fight and devour each other. The build up and the banter that leads to this is *chef’s kiss* amazing.

Let’s face it, this book might have made me feel things.

Another great part of this book is Kayley Loring adding a hearty element of family. It’s something I have noticed in her books and this one, I loved Declan’s mixed Italian and Irish families and Maddie’s precocious butt adoring teenage niece, Piper.

I thought the end fell a teeny weeny bit flat, but this couple just kept the heat going. I really loved that.

Listened to the audio version and loved it. Connor Crais was great as Declan. Mackenzie Cartwright was amazing, but not just as Maddie, she had the best delivery as Piper. This is going in my relisten list just because of her.

A great fun read

I have read this book twice. I was half way done with it before I clued into that fact. but never less it was still a fun read. These two people just complete each other. I very much enjoyed the narrator using such a great Irish brough that was really sexy and sounded very authentic so good job Connor. I highly recommend this book to others, enjoy your reading.

Enjoyable story

What a fun story! All of the characters in this story are fun and like able. There were laugh out loud moments. The narrators did a great job.

Amazing

This was my first time listening to this author and it was simply amazing, from the narrator's and the story line ... I look forward to listening to more from this author..

Amazing!

I love Christmas romances. Was kind of skeptical reading the description but I'm so glad I bought this. It was so funny and the narrotars were amazing! If you need something that will make you laugh and cry this is the book for you!!!

BEST CREDIT I EVER SPENT!♥️💋♥️🎄♥️💋♥️

Loved everything about this book and the narrators were stellar!!!! You won’t regret getting this!

So fun!

This holiday-themed office romance was an absolutely entertaining listen. I loved the banter…and the relatives! 🤣 Parts of it had me laughing out loud. The narration was excellent and the Boston and Irish accents were what truly made some of the scenes. If you can listen to this book without laughing at least once…well, you’re obviously dead inside.

Really enjoyed this one. I’m glad I bought it and will probably listen again during the Christmas season next year.

Loved, loved loved this!

I loved the narration! There were many times I actually laughed out loud. The story was very good.

Yup - my new go to Christmas story

Funny, sweet and steamy! I loved it! Narrators were great and the story was perfect. No heavy drama just a great rom-com contemporary story to put you in the holiday mood. This will definitely be one I listen to every December.

Plagiarism?

This book, published in 2020 has almost the exact same plot as a book by Viceland and Penelope Ward, called the Christmas pact, which was published in 2019.
