Nick Matheson was gorgeous. He was furious when he found that Gemma’s supervisor had fired her. He contacted her and asked her to come to his office. He offered her a temporary position working for her boss’ boss. She was thrilled that he was preparing her for the director’s job. The fact that they had such chemistry was just too much to ignore.

Ms. Helen Ravell has written a great book which I’m thrilled to have read. This was my first by this author but it definitely will not be my last. I like the way she portrayed her characters, especially Gemma and Nick. Their expectations were more alike than either realized. All they knew was the sex was sizzling. The chemical reaction to each other was explosive. Gemma had some alpha attributes but she was incapable of controlling them after a couple glasses of champagne. The traits he possessed were more channeled in the needed direction. However, his eyes and his brain seldom functioned simultaneously.

In my opinion, this storyline was enhanced by the qualities of her flat mate, Suze. This secondary character certainly made the difference in how this book progressed. I liked the way she reacted and felt as if she was someone I knew personally. (I would hope to have her in my corner if I ever needed help.)

This book is a definite keeper. I loved the total picture. The sexual tension was sizzling. The fire stopped just short of electric shocks. The ending was a surprise to me. Happily ever after went one step further. It’s a keeper!
