About This Book
What happens when you walk in on your impossibly arrogant boss at exactly the wrong moment — and can't bring yourself to regret it? That's the delicious predicament at the heart of this workplace romance, where the power imbalance is real, the tension is electric, and the stakes go far beyond a two-year signing bonus. Emmett Lasker is the kind of man you want to despise on principle, and heroine Sierra gives readers every reason to agree with her — right up until the moment everything shifts. The emotional push-pull here cuts deeper than the usual boss-employee setup, anchored in genuine vulnerability on both sides and a pregnancy that forces two stubborn people to stop hiding behind their worst impulses.
Nadia Lee writes with sharp wit and a confident pace that keeps the pages moving without sacrificing the slow-burn emotional payoff readers come for. The banter crackles, the heat lands, and the story is structured to deliver both comedy and genuine feeling in equal measure. Where lesser romances coast on tropes, this one earns its moments — the humor never undercuts the tenderness, and the tenderness never softens the story into mush. It's a strong, assured opening to the Lasker Brothers series.
