Perry Hawthorne is my boss. Only my boss. And I do NOT have a crush.
When one of THE Hawthorne brothers—known by their chiseled jawlines and their family-run farm and event center—hires me to be his virtual assistant, I do everything I can to keep him firmly in the work zone.
His grumpy demeanor helps.
His smoking hot profile picture does not.
But even if I do have a crush (a very tiny one), I can’t catch real feelings for a million different reasons.
Besides the whole business part of our relationship, I’m a single mom. I have to think about what’s best for my son, Jack. And my grumpy, divorced, humorless boss isn’t exactly giving me “ready to be a stepdad” vibes.
When Perry upgrades me from virtual to in-person assistant, I wonder if I’ve gotten him all wrong. He’s actually pretty great with Jack. And with me? Let’s just say the chemistry crackling between us might vaporize all my reasons for keeping my distance.
Trouble is, after his messy divorce, I’m not sure Perry’s ready to bet on a new relationship. But it isn’t just my heart that’s on the line. It’s Jack’s, too. And after everything we went through before my husband died, I’m not sure that’s a gamble I’m ready to take, no matter how desperate Jack is for a daddy.
How to Kiss Your Grumpy Boss is a swoony, feel-good romcom with all the crackling chemistry and sizzling kisses you want in a closed-door romcom, and don't forget the ridiculous puns! Books in the How to Kiss a Hawthorne Brother series are connected but can be read in any order.

The second brother we are introduced to is Perry. Perry is the grumpy guy who has given up on love after his bitter divorce with his ex. With his sister on maternity leave, he needs help running the apple farm, so she gets him a virtual assistant. Lila is a single mom to kindergartener Jack and pure sunshine. This small town, single mama, grumpy sunshiney romance really is top notch.
When Perry calls her and asks her to bring him a jack, they meet for the first time face to face and Perry cannot help being drawn to her. It's lovely watching Perry navigating how to date a woman who comes with a small child when he has never been a father himself and it doesn't come naturally but the more time he spends with Lila and then with Jack, he finds himself falling in love with both of them and it will hit you right in the feelers. - 4.5 stars
