BLURB
The first time I met Merrick Crawford was during my job interview.

Well, technically, I’d met him twenty minutes earlier when he’d barged into a fitting room a few doors down from my appointment.

I yelled. He yelled. After an argument while standing in my bra, I proceeded to smash the door into the gorgeous jerk, trying to yank it shut.

As you might imagine, I was freaked out when I discovered that the rude guy was my potential new boss.

Yet he didn’t seem to recognize me. Or so I thought… Until we wound up bickering again during my interview and he told me to go sniff my armpit.

Okay, so maybe I hadn’t exactly been changing when he walked in on me. In my defense, I’d been stuck on a hot train for two hours and wanted to make sure I didn’t smell.

I obviously didn’t expect to get the job. But somehow an invitation to a second interview arrived in my inbox.

Before I left, I asked to see Merrick. I needed to know why I was even in consideration after our disastrous start.

Turned out, Merrick only wanted to hire me because I was the least competent candidate. It seemed his board was making him fill the position, against his wishes.

I didn’t really want to work in a place where my boss expected me to fail. But I figured maybe I’d enjoy proving him wrong. It was a little thing I dubbed the boss project.

What I wasn’t prepared for was that there would be other things I’d enjoy doing to Merrick Crawford.

Getting involved with the boss wasn’t the smartest choice.

But you know what they say about choices: Some we regret, some we are proud of. I just had no idea where this one was going to land.

MY REVIEW

A meet cute involving rogue cherries, some armpit smelling, and a gorgeous but jerky guy are just the start of the LOL between Evie and her now new boss Merrick.

Merrick absolutely was against hiring for the new position. What to do? Why, hire the least experienced candidate of course. But when she turns out to be the gorgeous woman, the one on whom he barged in earlier, he can't help but fall for her, even though mixing business with pleasure is out of the question. His baggage combined with hers, an off-limits situation, all mean this couple shouldn't end up working. But if his awesome but meddling grandma has her way, he won't be letting Evie go.

Ah these two! I literally laughed out loud reading their snark and witty dialogue. They were so funny, fighting their feelings and attraction to each other. But there was an undercurrent of heaviness, as both their baggage was bubbling under the surface of all the fun. Their journey was signature Vi - loads of humor, fiery chemistry, just as excellent secondary characters as the leads, and most significantly, more heart than everything else combined. I never fail to fall in love with Vi's writing, her characters, her stories, and Evie and Merrick are another couple to put on the shelf in my heart where all of Vi's worlds reside.

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...
