⭐⭐⭐⭐☆
The opening scene? Funny, funny, funny. Moving further…totally
got goosebumps with fluttering butterflies of emotion while reading about the
growing attraction between the two MCs, Joslyn Simonini and Raven
Malvolio.
Joslyn is a turnaround consultant and specialist for
companies not doing too well. Clearly she is pretty awesome at her work. While
consulting for a family business, she meets Raven, the CFO of the organisation.
Joslyn is straight with a boyfriend, but the day she meets Raven has been
rather unusual, and Jos seems to be feeling some residual effects. Their
professionalism approaching the work and hand and ease of connecting helps take
their acquaintanceship further.
Written in first person in Joslyn’s voice, the book has
great humour, excellent pacing, fully realised characters and relationships.
Usually when one of the MCs is the narrator, we end up liking the object of
their affection more than the narrator, but in this one, Jos totally shines.
Loved, loved, loved the slow burn…and the moment just before
the first kiss…wow!
This is romance-central and so recommended.
