Reese (23) & Dawson (35) meet when she hides from an awful first date in his tattoo shop. They share a smoldering kiss, but then part ways. Flash forward 3 months and heā€™s her new boss. A no fraternizing policy has them avoiding any feelings they may have towards each other, but obviously that won’t last too long.

A lawyer by day and a tattoo artist by night, Dawson has a ruthless, grumpy attitude going on, but deep down heā€™s a real sweetheart. The things he does for those he cares about really puts him in the book boyfriend category. You donā€™t want to get on his bad side, though. Heā€™s one of those billionaires that uses his money for good and not douchy things, too.

Reese is fiercely independent and doesnā€™t want any handouts. She is working two jobs and using all her spare time studying to get into law school. Her relationship with her grandma, who raised her, was really something special.

With such undeniable chemistry it’s hard for them to stay away from each for long. She tried, she really did, but he was relentless in getting her close. They’re total opposites in every way, but I liked how Ann weaves Dawson’s backstory into Reese’s future.

Overall, an enjoyable read. There’s a great cast of characters, except for one, there always has to be one that needs a throat punch. Iā€™m sad he didnā€™t get one. Loved the cameos with Harrison whose story will be told in If You Give a CEO a Chance.


Book blurb:

Handsome, grumpy, workaholic.

I know what everyone says about meā€“just an atm where his heart used to be. Which might be true, until I saw her.

I canā€™t stop fantasizing about my new assistant.

Bright eyed and too young, Reese is not meant for someone like me.

3 reasons why I absolutely cannot fall for her:

1. She knows about my double life as a tattoo artist

2. I donā€™t do relationships

3. The way she doesnā€™t put up with my demanding ways

Should I have moved her desk outside my office? No, because now I have to see her constantly. Nothing says stay away from the good girl like late nights ordering her favorite take out just to see her smile, right?

One kiss and Iā€™ll figure out how to have a night with her.

One night and Iā€™ll be asking her to spend the weekend with me.

One weekend and Iā€™ll have to find a way to win her heart.
