Blurb

He’ll get what he wants—even if I’m already taken.

Holt Sebastian is royalty in our world.

As CEO of the Sebastian News Corp, he’s the man with all the power. The man who decides if I’ll always just be a local television anchor or if I’ll be the rising star of my own show.

I make it my mission to be noticed. Make him see my potential. But soon, it's clear he's the one in charge.

His possessiveness is brutal.

His eyes own everything they touch. I feel his gaze on me when he's in the room. The heat of them as they rake down my body, taking me in, marking me as his. He doesn’t just want me on the screen—he wants me in his bed.

And Holt Sebastian gets what he wants.

No one will stop him, no one will get in his way.

No one can protect me from his desire.

Not even the man who promised nothing would come between us and his ambition—my husband.

Laurelin Paige delivers a twist on Indecent Proposal in this billionaire workplace standalone romance featuring elements of fake relationship, marriage of convenience, enemies to lovers, and a new alphahole readers will love to hate.


MY REVIEW


Brystin's about to get what she's always wanted - the career of a lifetime and the show she gets to host. To get it she has to make a deal with the devil in the form of brutal billionaire Holt Sebastian. She really shouldn't do it, as it's essentially just another man taking advantage of her big heart, and her ambition. But she can't resist the way he makes her feel. But what will she do when she finds out Holt is just another man who's using her?

Holt's used to getting what he wants, who he wants, how he wants. This time, it's Brystin he wants. He wants something else, too, and it's this thing that could be the ultimate obstacle to a real relationship happening between them. This alpha has just met his match, and fallen for someone who may, or may not allow him to redeem himself.

Alphahole alert! Holt is truly the epitome of an alphahole - possessive, bossy, brutal, and ruthless. Honestly, I questioned him and his motives throughout the entire story and I veered between hating him and his ways, and loving him for the same. Brystin probably, should have, done better, both with Holt and her obnoxious husband, but her big heart got in her way. I wanted to shake both of them at times, probably more him than her, but I also really was cheering them both on in the end. Their chemistry was no way going to be denied, they were inevitable, it just took them awhile to get there. I do wish there had been a lot more groveling on Holt's end, but ultimately I'm glad they found their way.

She is a sucker for a good romance and gets giddy anytime there’s kissing, much to the embarrassment of her three daughters. Her husband doesn’t seem to complain, however.

When she isn’t reading or writing sexy stories, she’s probably singing, watching Killing Eve or Letterkenny, or dreaming of Michael Fassbender. She's also a proud member of Mensa International though she doesn't do anything with the organization except use it as material for her bio.

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...

He’d taken it off the market and moved in before I got there. I just never got the memo. Unfortunately, there was no other place in town available, so Evan let me stay. Evan—the guy my parents took in years a...
