No Excuses by Nikky Kaye
4.0

What starts out as a boss/secretary fantasy novel quickly turns into something more.  Maddie's adoption has left her with some issues regarding her self-worth as well as her ability to apply herself.  Gage has some pretty serious social interaction issues (enough that I'm kinda curious how he's been so successful in business so far).  Both of them are good at making the other one better.  Maddie helps smooth out Gage's rough edges, helping deal with people with more humanity.  And Gage believes that Maddie can, and will, do great which means she starts to believe it too.  

There's humor and heat in Nikky Kaye's work.  She's fantastic at taking a traditional storyline and giving it a little twist  :)
