what the...

Do you like instant love? Weird power balance? Or a romance style á la the 30s? Well good for you, I hated it.

Old fashioned awful

Just no. No to the woman with a degree in interior design who chooses to spend 5 years in a customer service job because she's "in love" with a man she's never spoken to. No, big screaming WTF NO to the man who seems to brag that he's never forced a woman to have sex with him. You cannot be serious. The threshold for this book's hero is "He's not a rapist."????? A man who at the opening of the book is a complete workaholic, yet when there's a throwaway reference to his grandmother who must have been a business trailblazer if she was working alongside her husband, its just a sad comment that she didn't cook. And where the hell did his brother go on vacation that had no access to cell phone or internet for a month? Was this safari on Mars? I hated this book from the beginning where she goes to save the crying baby wearing a toast colored twinset, to the end where this jacka$$ gets her to sign a contract saying she'll love him forever - without reading it. She's a moron and he's worse so at least they found each other.

Did not finish

I got about halfway through the story and just had zero desire to finish. The story just never clicked for me and had me annoyed so I just quit. I’m not a quitter (when it comes to books 😂) but I just felt like I was wasting my time. The characters didn’t draw me in at all!

sweet well-written story. worth the time!

the story overall is very sweet. I love how descriptive the author is of everything, you can actually picture things! the only complaint I have is that it never really says that they used her designs for their company. I thought their story would continue in book two but they are all standalone books in this series. each one has nothing to do with the other. that disappointed me. everything was predictable like most of these books are but I really enjoyed it

great book

great series.  I really did enjoy this series by this author and look forward to reading more.

Short and Sweet

This audiobook was a short but really sweet and clean romance. It was a nice break from the super angsty, highly sexualized contemporary romances.
Coleen Marlo is a new-to-me narrator and her storytelling fit the story fairly well.

Cute story.

Cute story. A little unrealistic but enjoyable. Nice story to listen to while doing chores.

Ok! Good

Ok! Short simple listen,with romance and a happy ending. Boss and employer relationship but not a weird one.

Surprise baby

I loved this book! Kayleigh is the perfect love struck girl next door that gets involved when a baby is left at her work place. Derek is the owner but can’t seem to figure out what to do. Helpless male? Check! Woman to the rescue? Check! Impossible situation? Check check!! In normal Samantha chase fashion, these two find what they hadn’t been looking for.

Not for me

Just too much, too fast. I'm not into the jump in have sex, and the agonizing details of every milimiter movement
