Publisher's summary

From USA Today best-selling author Ava Harrison comes a grumpy/sunshine workplace romance.

The first time I met Charles Cavendish, I accidentally locked myself in a closet with him.

The second time, he became my new boss.

My very grumpy new boss.

No matter how I much I try, I can’t forget what his lips feel like.

The way his arms wrap around me.

I need to keep my distance.

But when the company lands a new account, I’m forced to work side by side with this man.

The handsome devil who makes me forget all rational thought.

But the thing about the devil is...he can lure even the greatest of saints.

A very good read

Some drama and worth the credit. Charles and Raven are the perfect pair. Buy the book and find out what happens across a crowded room

Provoke

This book/🎧was sweet sprinkled with some angsty moments and definitely some triggers but in the end it does have a HEA. The narration is on spot love Shane East and that deliciously sexy British accent.🔥 Is it worth the credit? Yes, Shane East only is worth it❣️😉

Was a little frustrated with the characters

One of the hardest things for me to read about it when I feel like conflict between the two main characters is kind of just made up and predictable. I feel like the conflict in this story could have been way better, making it really frustrating when the characters are doing and saying things that just make them sound really stupid and insecure, which is so far away from who they have been trying to prove themselves to be through the whole story. That part was probably my biggest complaint, but the story is written well and narrated perfectly

Fantastical!

I cannot think of one book of Ava Harrison’s that I have actually read because I always wait for her audiobooks. She has such a talent of choosing the best narrator to fit the characters of her book, and this book was no exception.

I could listen to Shane East talk all night, and I actually did fall asleep listening to his voice one night. 😂Vanessa is also one of my favorite female narrators. I love how she can make every character‘s voice sound so different that you would think there was another person narrating with her. She also does a male voice amazingly.

This story was a little different than the mafia world in Ava’s books. I love the rich, grumpy boss genre and this one is going to be one of my favorites. Usually, when the boss is grumpy, the female character would back down and feel sorry for herself. I love how Raven called him out on his crap every single time, even when he hurt her. I love the relationship she had with Charles, but I think the relationship she had with her mother is what I adored the most because I don’t have that type of relationship with my mom. The relationship she had with her friends was enduring as well.

All in all, this was another fantastic audiobook by Ava which I will definitely listen to again. I totally recommend you listening to it on audiobook because then you can get the full effect of the chocolatey, melting British accent of Shane East. 🔥

A Good Listen

This was a sweet story, and of course the narrators are the best! I think I could listen to Shane East read the phone book 😂

❤️ THANKS AVA.. I LOOOOOVED IT ❤️

The damaged hero Charles had his walls built high thanks to his manipulative ex - however, the moment his eyes meet a sexy siren’s across a Club, he fails to feel the cracks start to form. Then he wriggles, fights hard and lies to himself for a while when that sexy siren is the new hire at his Advertising Company and he’s forced to work very closely with the confident, professional, talented Raven long into the night. But the sizzles and sparks between them light a fire neither one can ignore or deny. Unfortunately though, there’ll come a time when he’ll be reaching for those damn bricks again after a brutal blast.

Worth a credit? Yes I loved this dual POV office romance that had everything I was hoping for and so so much more from one of my top ‘one click’ authors.. especially with Shane and Vanessa’s combined talents. Together they brought the simmering attraction and embers.. the angst and cold shoulder,.. the sex and smoulders.. the drama and angst.. and the passion and happily ever afters to life.
