Review:
A connection right from the start, it just happened to start with Mia having a heated confrontation with Derek. Making it a very memorable first official meeting where they actually talked to each other.
Having a bad day at work and then having to deal with a customer who thinks the world revolves around him is not what Mia wanted. Turing herself into the Whisky police as Derek creatively calls her when he takes drink from her tray meant for another customer. At this point she has had enough and just vents right to his face. I think this is the moment that he actually started to fall for her a bit as she was the first person to stand up to him and put him in his place. Queue comical moment shortly after involving a food tray. Thinking she is about to be fired she looks for a reason to escape and that lands in the form of Derek.
Derek is more than happy to escape with Mia for a few hours, even though he was meant to be meeting someone for a business deal that could soon be dead in the water after a story was printed about him. Mia is a breath of fresh air and someone he wants to have around more. This leads to him offering her a job, to be his new assistant. Could be tricky given that there is clearly chemistry simmering away between them. Whats the worst that could happen?
Mia is in need of money quickly to be able to afford a swanky new camera so she can take the best photo possible and be entered into a prestigious photography competition. This leads her to take not one but two jobs, the second being for a private eye where she would be taking photos of people. It’s only after she has agreed to work for Derek that she gets her first assignment from job number two. Can anyone guess who she is meant to follow? Someone she does’t need help with getting close to. She may need the money but after spending just a short amount of time with Derek she’s not sure on what path she should choose and time is running out.
The chemistry between them is a slow burn leading to hotter encounters the more time they spend together. It’s almost like each moment they are close they are playing some form of foreplay until they both decide to give into their true desires. Giving into said desires could have unforeseen consciences with secrets soon to be brought to the surface. Can they overcome the obstacles in front of them to see a future together or will past mistakes and stubborn tendencies bring them crashing back down to earth?
Two people who are meant to be together but will have to learn to get out of their own way to get the one they really want. Interesting characters that draw you in and start to create the world this series is going to belong in. Leads in next book are going to be fun. Friends/enemies to lovers I feel.
