| After seven years of being Mike Furie's personal assistant, Jillian Turner has had enough. The job might come with all the perks of being part of the rich, famous and powerful people. But what good did that do for her without a life and someone to share it with? Mike Furie might be sexy, arrogant, and egotistical and a certified bachelor. Staying and working for him wouldn't get her anywhere. Now having to drop everything and fly to Aspen to rescue her boss from the clutches of just one of the many seeking to trap him is the last straw. Fortified with a whole lot of champagne and a shopping trip with Mike's money, Jillian tells him exactly where he can stick his job. She's quitting (for the umpteenth time) and he can find someone else to be at his beck and call twenty-four hours a day. All right, waking to find her in bed, naked and married to one Mike Furie and with a splitting headache on her birthday is just too much. Why can't she remember signing that damn marriage certificate?
Mike Furie has Jillian exactly where he wants her, right now under him for a little-burn-up-the-sheets loving and later a little more loving. After all, they were officially on their honeymoon. Oh yeah, Jillian was his and she wouldn't be leaving his side anytime soon. Ms. Lee has created a remarkable mad cap erotic romance that is impossible for the reader to put down! The amazing and innovative mind of Ms. Lee gives fans a breathtaking and delectable new story to enjoy again and again. The wickedly sensual and humorous plot is pure pulse pounding action, the dialogue is snappy, the characters are strongly defined, and the sex is ebulliently naughty keeping the reader captivated. Each page is perfectly paced, the anticipation builds and the audacious escapades abound. The strongly defined characters are well-rounded, full of heat and energy and very easy to visual. The sexual tension followed by the emotional struggle between the characters will touch readers on many levels. It seems like every single scene dealing with the character conflict and every reaction is perfect. The relationship between Mike and Jillian seems warm and real although the reader is left guessing to what extent until the climactic ending. The sex is blistering hot and should come with a warning label. The addition of Jillian's family, as well as other employees of Mike's are wonderful touches that work to not enhance the story but the characters too, for some laugh out loud moments. Ms. Lee has a wonderful sense of humor and it's displayed with this arousing and well crafted story.
