Release Date: July 22
Last night, he was a sexy stranger I couldn't get enough of.
Today, he's my new boss, who I can't seem to please.
Bad luck seems to follow me. Last night, I grabbed a drink at the bar near my new workplace.
I met the most sophisticated man when he “stole” my table. We bantered and danced, and I went home with a stranger for the first time in my life.
The next morning, I find out my hot one-night stand is my new boss. Gone is the playful, charming man from last night. Luke Maxwell is all business, acting as if our night together never happened.
He’s impossible to please, but I’m determined to succeed. This job is my chance to prove myself and put my past—and my ex—behind me. I’m not going to mess this up.
But then we go on a business trip together and end up stranded for the night. Instead of discussing our project, he kisses me in the elevator and throws a jealous fit, claiming I’m his.
Apparently, I’m not the only one who can’t forget our evening together after all.

MY REVIEW
One night with a gorgeous guy is not Megan's norm, but she had to have something just for herself for once. Then she walks into her new internship and guess who is the new big boss...Yep, of course her beautiful night is now her beautiful boss. No matter, they'll keep things professional. But when it becomes obvious that will be impossible, that their attraction and chemistry are too strong to remain professional, they can't resist. But a relationship seems impossible between two people who don't believe in relationships or trusting another with their hearts. Not when both have burned by love before.
Luke's used to life being easy - he runs his own architecture firm, he's rich, he's gorgeous, and he and his brothers are closer than the average family. Then his intern sneaks her way into his life and suddenly he's thinking about something other than chasing fun. He hasn't opened up his heart in a long time, though, and doing so now is scary. Is he up for the challenge a relationship will bring? Especially one with professional implications?
Normally I'm all for the angst in my reading, as long as it's not so over the top I feel like I'm reading the script of a soap; but sometimes I long for a story that's low on angst and drama and high on heart and heat. That's exactly what I got with Megan and Luke's fun story. Though their relationship was forbidden, so making it all the more delicious, there wasn't a lot of back and forth about it, keeping everything just about their chemistry and developing feelings, which I very much appreciated. I've been loving these Maxwell Brothers, and can't wait for the next one to fall in love.
