Publisher's summary

What if you fell in love with the same man who wanted to fire you?

Billionaire Sawyer Drake made it abundantly obvious he didn't want an assistant. Traumatized by a fatal accident, he stayed to himself, shunned human contact, and would rather die than open up to another person - much less a beautiful college woman. His inner wounds ran deeper than the scars on his face.

When Ivy Wolfe ran away to Alabama to nurse a broken heart, the last thing she expected was to fall in love again. She needed a job to support her college expenses, and even though the salary for an assistant position in the home of a billionaire appeared too good to be true, she ignored the red flags and charged ahead.

With insecurities of her own to overcome, she found working for a self-absorbed recluse much harder than she anticipated. Determined to get through to Sawyer, Ivy wrote a letter that would change the course of their relationship.

But finding love with Sawyer was like playing with fire. Would she regret the day she hired on as his assistant? Or would she find the love of her life?

Unwanted Assistant

Very good book, if a bit heavy. Too much of it was spent on the anguish. Learning to love Jesus Christ was of huge importance to the overall story. Almost 5 out of 5 stars.

WONDERFUL!!!!

Absolutely loved, loved , loved this beautiful love story of Christian grace, growth & humility. Wonderful story of healing & love of the human spirit. Excellent narration also! Want to hear more from this author! P.S. the basketball backboard is called a backboard not a headboard, that needs to be corrected in the book!

Real emotions

Gripping story about loss and the courage it takes to be vulnerable again. Well narrated, not overly drawn out, and clean interactions between characters.

True Christina fiction

This book is one of the few that I have read this year that are true biblical, Christian books. It was a joy to read and such high-quality! I love the dual narration. This author only has one book available, and I seriously wish that there were more.

fully developed story

I liked that this story didn't feel rushed. The author took the time to develop the plot and romance. The side characters were peripheral, but I would still like to read more about them if this is a series. There is quite a bit of biblical and religious reference in this clean, contemporary romance.

One fantastic book!

Strong story line that kept my interest all the way. Loved the Christian influence. Pity there is only one book of this author.
