Lily, you predictable perv. I knew you'd open this email faster if I tempted you with a glimpse of JT's "PP". Well, put your pants back on and grab some bubbly because I have much better news to share. I got a job! As of tomorrow, I'll be the new executive assistant at Lorena Lefray Designs. I am so excited, but there's one itty bitty problem: I won't be Lorena's assistant. I'll be working for her older brother, Julian.

Story
Everyone in Cedar Creek, Texas, knows Jack McNight is an arrogant devil. Physically, I get it: he’s tan and fit, with coal-black hair that’s clearly been scorched by hellfire. Oh, and his personality? It burns just as hot. When I show up on the doorstep of Blue Stone Ranch, I’m run-down and rockin’ my last pair of underwear. I’m hoping for a savior, but instead, I find him. My opinion of Jack is marred by a dismal first impression, but his opinion of me is tainted even before I arrive. He’s heard I’m a spoiled princess there to take advantage of his goodwill.

Ian is...just my best friend. We're extremely close, stuck so deep inside a Jim-and-Pam-style friendzone everyone at work assumes we're a couple - that is until one day, word spreads through the teacher's lounge that he's single. Fair game. Suddenly, it's open season on Ian. He should be reveling in all the newfound attention, but to our mutual surprise, the only attention he seems to want is mine. He's turning our formerly innocent nightly chats into X-rated phone calls. Our playful banter sports a new, dangerous edge.

Story
A full-length standalone romantic comedy from USA TODAY best-selling author R.S. Grey. Beau Fortier starred in most of my cringe-worthy teenage fantasies. I met him when I was a junior in high school, a time that revolved exclusively around bad hair, failed forays into flirting, and scientific inquiries into which brand of toilet paper worked best for stuffing bras. That is, until Beau moved into the small guest house just beyond my bedroom window. A 24-year-old law student at Tulane, Beau was as mysterious to me as second base (both in baseball and in the bedroom).

I’m desperate and destitute when Lockwood Construction rolls into my small town with an offer too good to pass up: high wages to any able-bodied man willing to join their crew. Say no more. I throw on baggy clothes, tuck my long hair under a baseball hat, and apply for a job. Unfortunately, my half-baked idea of disguising myself as a guy is flawed from the beginning. As Shakira says, these hips don’t lie. Still, I like to think I might have pulled the whole thing off save for one thing: I know my boss.

The arrogant boy who was my teenage rival is now a chiseled doctor armed with intimidating good looks.

With Olympic tryouts on the horizon, the last thing 19-year-old Kinsley Bryant needs to add to her plate is Liam Wilder. He's a professional soccer player, America's favorite bad-boy, and has all the qualities of a skilled panty-dropper. A face that makes girls weep - check. Abs that can shred Parmesan cheese (the expensive kind) - check. Enough confidence to shift the earth's gravitational pull - double check. Not to mention Liam is strictly off limits. Forbidden. Her coaches have made that perfectly clear.

I've spent eight years wishing I'd fall out of love with Derek Knightley. Blowing out birthday candles, chasing after shooting stars, making it rain spare change into mall fountains - every time it's the same wish: Forget about Derek. But the day he walks back into my life, I realize there are two things time has yet to soften: my feelings for him and his chiseled jawline. It's infuriating that my heart still races when he walks into a room. I refuse to fall prey to old unrequited love, so I decide the less I'm around him, the better. Avoidance is key.

Nicholas Hunt is the man I hate. For good reason. His opinion of me is tainted by prejudice even before my arrival at his grandmother’s estate, and my first impression of him is just as abysmal. His arrogance and icy demeanor make it clear that he’s the type of man who’s best handled at a distance. Fortunately, space shouldn’t be an issue inside this Gilded Age mansion and its lush gardens. If I stick with the servants and he keeps to his sailboat, we should hardly cross paths at all. Unfortunately, at Rosethorn, I find that all roads eventually lead to Nicholas Hunt.

He’s my silver lining in a custom black suit. Besides being a legacy member at the club, he’s a tech mogul and Austin’s most eligible bachelor.

Publisher's Summary
A full-length standalone from USA Today best-selling author R. S. Grey. There are overlapping characters from The Duet, but both books can be read separately.
Five minutes until the interview begins. Fresh on the heels of her college graduation, Cameron Heart has landed an interview at a prestigious architecture firm. Four minutes until the interview. She knows she's only there because the owner, Grayson Cole, is her older sister's friend. Three minutes. For the last seven years, Grayson has been the most intimidating man Cammie has ever had the pleasure - or displeasure - of being around. Two minutes. But the job opportunity is too good to pass up. So, Cammie will have to ignore the fact that Grayson is handsome enough to have his own national holiday. One. After all, she shouldn't feel that way about her new boss. And he will be her new boss....
"I'm not intimidated by you," I said with a confident smile.
"Perhaps we should fix that, Ms. Heart. Close the door."

Never Have I Ever...
...hated the main character of a romance novel... UNTIL NOW! OMG, seriously?? I thought the purpose of romance novels was to root FOR the happy ending!?!??! Which I am a total sucker for usually and that’s the entire reason why I’m addicted to romance novels to begin with but my goodness... in this book the main chick Cammy is a crazy, ungrateful, stupid, selfish, stubborn, and wreckless, BRAT who didn’t make a single good decision throughout the entire book. I found myself gritting my teeth throughout most of it and wishing she got what she deserved instead of the happy ending I am usually so focused on, which completely ruined the story for me. These romance novels are supposed to be exciting to where you can’t wait to see what happens next but in this case, I forced myself to continue on with it several times hoping she would learn her lesson or come to her senses and it would all be worth it but she was a total disappointment straight through to the very end. By the time the last 5-10 minutes of the book came it was just too late to be redeemed. I finished the last few minutes but it didn’t change my mind about the book. I’m just happy that I didn’t have to pay for it or I’d be pretty upset. I hate giving bad reviews so I waited half the day to write this to see if I had a change of heart but every time I think about this book I get mad so I just wanted to document my warning to the rest of you and get it out of my library. Buyers Beware!

An Unhealthy Obsession
Let me point out right away how these two characters are perfect for each other.Both are immature,obsessed,manipulative characters.Ok I can understand Cami being only 22 and not having much experience in relationships,but once Grayson clued her in to his attraction to her,she was over the top and desperate to get his attentions.Grayson on the other hand is 30,should have plenty experience and was hoping maturity to deal with a young woman’s crush,professionally and sensitively to Cami’s feelings and naivety,instead he was cruel by clueing her into exactly what him and his”current”girlfriend were doing sexually and flaunting her in front of Cami around work,etc.They both were playing a game with each others emotions like junior high school kids.I wanted to slap Cami to get a dang clue and slap Grayson just because he’s such a d!€k in this book.

Nope
I just couldn’t stand this one. Every major character except the sister is mean, stupid, childish, and selfish. I’m not sure I’m even going to finish it. The female lead makes terrible nonsensical choices. The male lead is mean. So mean I can’t see why she wants him. Her boss is also mean, with absolutely no indication of any redeeming qualities, and her roommate is a selfish idiot. This is the third novel I’ve listened to by this author, and by far the worst. Don’t know what happened, but she totally missed her mark with this book.

My least favorite of her novels
My least favorite RS Grey novel. Sorry bud. I didn’t like the character development and the betrayal felt shallow. (So much feelings of oh this is going to be a burning car crash! Meh. I’ll do it anyways attitude). Their age gap and overall arc from family friends to lovers wasn’t super believable and the parts that felt believable were reaching into weird obsessive stalker style life choice shaping. The love scenes were closed off and felt like a slam bam quickie instead of a developing relationship.

This could have been a great book
It was just to much she was obsessed with him and he was cruel to her and finally the last 2 chapters were good. I stop several time and thought about not finishing but I liked the first book and wanted to see what happened to them. Sorry I do like your books

Couldn't Finish it!
I've enjoyed the other 3 or so books I've listened to by R.S.Grey. This one I couldn't stomach. Neither main character was tolerable. Everyone is rude, condescending, and unprofessional. The female protagonist is millenial in the worst sense. She is intelligent but immature and obsessed with her boss who is equally cringe worthy. Narrator was good but the characters were bad enough for me to return the book.

I really enjoyed the story. but geez, Cami is just obnoxious, annoying and a child. I didn't enjoy her character..I really just want to get to the end.
