Off Limits by Clare Connelly
2.0

Great character development for a shorter, novella length story, but alas in this day and age I can't really and truly get behind the idea of a boss making his female assistant wake him up in his bedroom and make her stand there as he struts around in all his nude glory, (no matter how sexy it is) as part of the job. So, starting the book with that scene put my ire up, and what followed didn't help it. Basically your typical alpha billionaire with dead wife issues who decides he must have his sexy assistant, but only on his terms. Her magical sexy times makes him change his ways, of course.

Why couldn't Gemma be Jack's equal, or superior? That would have made a more interesting story.

Besides the tropes I found not to my liking, I did finish the book, did find it kind of hot, but did feel a little bad about it. I'm interested to see where this imprint goes.
