Review
When it comes to her career in PR Georgina is all business. She has created quite a reputation for herself by knowing what needs to be done and ensuring that her clients make sure it happens. Her latest assignment is to clean up the image of Modern Man magazine and she will succeed despite the fact that the creative director wants nothing to do with her or her ideas.
Sebastian has built the magazine from the ground up and doesn’t need an outside consultant coming in and telling him how to run the business. His playboy reputation is hurting the magazine rather than helping it and he is about to show the opiniated woman what happens when she tries to tell him what to do.
Sebastian and Georgina have taken opposite side in their workplace battle which have the sparks flying between them both in and out of bed. They have a way of challenging each other to be better that’s if they don’t drive each other crazy first.
Hot chemistry, enemies to lovers and great main and secondary characters all combine to make this a story you don’t want to miss.
