Publisher's summary

A tyrant by day, a playboy by night. That's the reputation that precedes Richard VanRyan. He lives life the way he wants, no concern for the opinion of others. He cares for no one, is completely unrepentant, and has no desire to change his ways.

Katharine Elliott works under Richard as his PA. She despises him and his questionable ethics, but endures all the garbage he sends her way, because she needs the job. Her end goal is far more important than the daily abuse and demands she tolerates from her nasty tyrant of a boss. Until the day he asks her for something she never expected. A new role with a personal contract-fiancée instead of PA.

What happens when two people who loathe each other have to live together and act as though they are madly in love? Sparks. That's what happens.

Can the power of love really change a person?

Will they survive the contract?

What do you do when the one person you hate the most becomes the one person you can't live without?

Real!!!

It's rare when I feel so emotional with a book these days, normally many romance novels are repetitive always about tragedy, but this book was real. And the author was able to express how one person can change and make a difference with unconditional love.

HEA story

If you're looking for a decent HEA story this one may be for you. This story had been in my wish list for a while and I'm glad I finally got around to listening to it.

Arrogance, forgiveness, innocence and love all wrapped up in this story. This is a story that you can enjoy.

hate to love

I really like this book Richard with a real ass and funny sarcastic abrupt and rude no consider for anything and Katie was sweet kind compassionate inconsiderate. 2 people who are totally opposite from each other however they find their way and an emotional wreck from their past to the present. I really enjoyed the book and I felt that the narrator's did a great job on expressing the feelings not going to lie I cried and I don't do that often it was a cute enjoyable book this is not a book with alot of sex but about two people making a deal to work it out.

best yet!!!!

this book was amazing... a must read... some crying some have a box of tissue..

👍😢❤

Omg loved this smart, beautiful, and swooney steamy slow burn ❤ The relationship building is so good! May need tissues later 😢

Awesome book

I love this book! It was great!! The chemistry between the two main characters was great and I love how it started out.

Good story of redemption...

Honesty isn’t always easy, and growth is sometimes very painful but the author captured it in a good story. Intimacy seemed a little rushed considering the heroine’s experience but sometimes I guess life is like that. Good narration!

Fantastic!

Wow this is a great book! I only wish the baby clause was on audible.

My very favorite

I’ve listened to this book no less than 100 times. It still fills me with such pleasure. I have since lisoto all of Melanie’s books but this continues to be my favorite. I love the way we saw Richard move from a real dick to the best love ever. Katie was just the right part sweet and cantankerous!! It was the one book with the least physical passion and I usually would hate that but the passion for their goals and cares made up for it. It just does it for me!!!

Exceptional

This book was a great story. I would read it again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great love story.
