From the limited bit that I read, I am enticed. Jack Grant is a billionaire whose wife, Lucy, suddenly got sick and died. He was in a funk when Gemma, his in-house counsel, came to work for him. His funk lead to numerous one night stands, but now it is Gemma who is getting under his skin, but she is off limits. He thinks that she is equally drawn to him, so several times a week, he makes sure that she sees his gorgeous naked body.
It is really hard to give a review for a book, when you only get to read the 6 page Prologue, but so far the characters' physical appearances have been described and their relationship explored. Will that be the conflict? Can't tell what the plot will be.
Because I was enticed, I requested a copy from Goodreads.com and here is my posted review there:
Self-made billionaire, Jack Grant, lost his wife, Lucy, to cancer several years ago, holds himself responsible and has not been able to move on. Instead he has gone through one assistant after another, difficult to work for and spends his nights with one woman after another, not even one-night stands as he never spends a night with any of them. Until two years ago when he hired Gemma Picton as his in house counsel, who gradually became his second hand. While attracted to each other from the start, they both know that the attraction is off limits. She ignores his exhibitionism, as she loves the challenges of the job. Until one evening when Jack notices that while she is cold to him, she is very warm and friendly to all the other employees, colleagues and business associates. She has been on his mind a lot and he finally looses control and decides he wants her, even though she is off limits. The story is well written, the characters are both well developed strong personalities and the conflict is real.
