About this ebook

When Jill Parnell’s promotion is nabbed by nepotism, she is offered another position on the partner-track, by pretending to date Ryan—the man who got her job.


Career-driven attorney, Jill Parnell, has worked long and hard to become a partner at Corbett, Gray, & Shaw. When the coveted position is given to the boss’s nephew, she does what any intelligent employee would do—attends a colleague’s wedding and schmoozes a high-powered partner at another law firm. 


Her potential new boss has only one condition for her, that she demonstrate a personal life that will support a thriving career. Pretending to have a boyfriend is outside Jill’s comfort zone, but she invites the best man to act the part and Ryan is all-too eager to play her significant other. Sparks fly between them, but she reminds herself she’s only driven to date to get back on the partner track.


When Jill discovers Ryan is the lawyer who stole her promotion, her charade threatens to implode. But breaking off their pretend relationship could cost her the job of her dreams. And the more she gets to know Ryan, the more she’s tempted to tame the bad boy, and make him her own.

Easy weekend read. Story was cute and had some twists in it. Gave more perspective to life and what it should be about vs what most people make it about. Can't wait to read more of her books.

When career-focused lawyer Jill loses out on a promotion to a partner's nephew from another firm, she's furious. Even when Ryan turns out to be ridiculously attractive and a great boss. Convinced she'll never rise through the ranks in her current position, she sets up an interview with another firm. But the lawyer recruiting her values work-life balance, which Jill has never learned to do. Can Ryan help her develop a personal life? And just how personal will they get? This book has a slightly more serious tone than the earlier books in the series, if only because Jill is a more serious character. It's a nice contrast. Yet this book is still a light, fun read. Jill goes through some major character growth, and it's nice to see her working toward her career goals while still finding happiness and meaning in her personal life. Loved it!
