About the Book:

Being bad never felt so good...

The office is full of rules. Everything is off-limits. Making a charity calendar of the sexy guys on your floor? Not allowed. Shrinking your boss' underwear when he sends it for dry-cleaning? Can't do that either.

But those things keep the natural balance. See, Avery Banks, our resident rising star, is a shark. The tall, blond, and gorgeous kind with zero patience and even less forgiveness.

Good thing I'm the Mae West of executive assistants. I live to put grown men in their place.

He wasn't supposed to find out...

Now he's made it his personal vendetta to screw me the way I screwed him. I'm at his beck and call, 24/7, for every humiliating, meaningless request.

Until we stumble on a new game. One we both want to play. One we both need to win.

And once we start...I'm not sure Avery wants to replace me.

I'm not sure I want him to.

All I want is more of this. The fire under the ice. What happens behind closed doors.

It's twisted, and so damn hot. But he's my boss. And with the company coming off a scandal even I couldn't engineer? What we're doing is strictly NSFW.

Lucky for me, Avery and I have one thing in common...

We both suck at following the rules.

This book is fun from start to finish! If you read the book PLAY, you already know just a bit about Charlie and Avery. If you haven't read it (and I do recommend it because it's a fun book), it's still easy enough to read this book even though some characters from that book appear here. If you've read PLAY, you already know some of the pranks Charlie has done to Avery.

One thing I liked about this book is that we're not subjected to witnessing the pranks Charlie pulled, but we do get glimpses of some of her stunts, and the repercussions of her actions. Some might say that Charlie seems immature, and that might possibly be true, but that behavior is only reserved for Avery. With everyone else she's a tried and true friend. She didn't have to take Rose (New Girl) under her wing, and she's always there for Payton. And I loved the relationship she has with her grandmother. Charlie is that type of person that people are drawn to; she may be unconventional at times, but she does know how to get stuff done.

I gotta say that Avery comes off as an ass for the first few chapters, but the more you read and get to know him, the more you see that under the hard exterior, is somehow yet another semi-solid exterior, with only an extremely select group of people who know the real him (and by extremely select group, I mean EXTREMELY lol). All Avery's worried about is the big picture, he doesn't take the time to see the details that come together to create the big pic, until Charlie becomes his assistant. The more time they're together, the more his viewpoints begin to change.

I will say that one issue for Charlie has to do with going back to her hometown; that was mentioned a few times in the story, yet we don't get to see how that actually played out until the epilogue, but at that point we just get told she went back home, so I would have liked to have seen that actual visit and how everything went down.

You'd think that now Avery's eyes have been opened it'd be smooth sailing for him and Charlie to be a couple right? Well, you'll just have to read to find out what happens for these two.

Meet the Author:

I love reading and writing stories where the girls aren’t doormats, the guys aren’t asshats, and secondary characters aren’t second-class citizens. A card-carrying millennial, I have two business degrees and zero hope of starting a fashion label (unlike my Travesty characters!). I crave quirk the way some people crave kink, and believe life is too short not to do what—and who—you love.

My home base near Toronto, Canada is shared with my wonderful sig other. He's the perfect man for me because not only is he tall dark & handsome, he will beta read for me under duress. And really, that's what love is. Beta reading under duress.
