I absolutely loved this. I was desperate for Hayes' POV.
This was boss/assistant, grumpy, banter, romance. A touch of a slow burn as well. It was such a fun read and I loved the banter and the charm they both had.
Talia has a lot going on in her personal and family life. She's being pulled in every direction, and in debt up to her eyeballs.
She gets a short term assistant job that'll definitely help pay her bills, but said boss is very British and very demanding. She calls him Satan, but slowly realizes that he is much more than she's quickly judged him for.
She starts to take care of him with vegetable morning smoothies, forced days off, and the occasional lunch break in the sun. He hasn't ever really had anyone take care of him before. Someone always wants him for something (sex, money, etc).
And Talia is always the competent one. Her family relies on her to pick up the slack, and they assume that she I'll help with anything. (Paying bills, home health care..).
Hayes needs her but in a different way, and she is growing addicted to that feeling.
The angst of the will they won't they was killer. I was devouring the pages needing more of them. This was the perfect length leaving me wanting more but I also need a whole other book with them as a couple. More than the epilogue.
