by Jennie
Adams
Perfect feel
good romance that puts a smile in the heart.
In
THE BOSS'S
UNCONVENTIONAL ASSISTANT, Jennie Adams
concludes her Gable sisters trilogy with a look at Sophia. Mixing
humor, an escalating chemistry between two worthy characters, and nice
plot twists that reveal the depth of the characters below the surface,
this romance is a perfect choice for those wishing to relax during
hectic or stressful times. Light yet heartwarming, this romance was a
pleasure to read from start to finish.
Sophia Gable leaves the
busy city life of Melbourne, Australia to arrive at the country estate
of Grey Barlow, a multimillionaire property developer. Having used up
much of her financial buffer zone, she finally has a posting. Ready to
begin her career change, Sophia has to make this work and does she ever
have her work cut out for her! Grey Barlow is used to being an active,
in-charge kind of man. When a sprained ankle and broken arm put a kink
in his full steam ahead work schedule, he is forced to hire a temporary
assistant and he is none to pleased at the idea of handing over the
reins even for the most regular of tasks. With her bright clothes and
unconventional ways, Sophia is not exactly what he imagined. Bright,
intelligent with looks to match, his new assistant has a knack for
breaking rules and protocol. Ordered to rest and take it easy by his
doctor, Grey is one hard-to-please grumbling boss. Does Sophia have
what it takes to bring this man under control? Can they control the
unspoken physical attraction that only seems to grow the closer they
become? When disaster strikes, will Grey be there for Sophia? Grey
might not be the commitment type, but will he stand up for her?
In
THE BOSS'S
UNCONVENTIONAL ASSISTANT, Jennie Adams brings together two
unlikely characters who bring out conflict and through that conflict,
they discover the best in themselves and each other. Unconventional yet
full of warmth and cheer, Sophia has just the perfect combination of
spunk, innocence and humor to shake this handsome man out of his bad
humor and open his heart. Grey is a successful businessman. He prepares
and gets things right in every detail. Can Sophia teach him that
sometimes rules and seriousness need to give way to softness and love?
When needed, Grey goes beyond the call of duty, but can he do the same
for love? When Sophia herself becomes vulnerable and needs someone to
stand up for her, is serious, grumbling Grey the man for the job?
With
a delightful sense of humor and detail, Jennie Adams creates memorable
characters to steal the heart. The inner thoughts of her characters,
expressed in italics, versus the words they actually say to one another
bring lots of smiles as these two battle the growing attraction between
themselves. Sophia's love for animals adds a nice twist, showing her
heart to both Grey and the reader. Despite his no-nonsense exterior,
Grey's good nature and qualities shine forth. Jennie Adams ends this
romance and indeed the series with a bold plot twist that brings her
sisters and family together, giving the reader a nice portrait of the
Gable women and their interconnections as well as a heartwarming,
romantic portrait of Grey as a hero. THE
BOSS'S UNCONVENTIONAL
ASSISTANT is a perfect feel good romance that puts a smile in
the
heart.
Personal notes:
I read this book during a very
stressful nightmarish time when my 18 year old dog was sick but had not
yet been diagnosed either to the cause or severity of the illness. Our
family's life was completely consumed with trips to and phone calls
with several vets. Quite frankly, I was not in the mood to read and
this was the only book on my shelves that appealed and could keep my
attention. Life was so full of distractions and crises, that I had to
read one chapter 5 times---and I loved it each and every time. For that
reason, I would highly recommend this book to romance lovers to keep on
their shelves for those nightmare moments in life when reading choice
is difficult---either because of real life or for reading slumps when
little appeals. I found the humor, the characters themselves, and the
gentle tone are the perfect remedy to bring an inner smile and I looked
forward to each page.
Book Description:
Sophia Gable is anything but conventional,
and multimillionaire Grey
Barlow knows this the second he meets her. With her bright clothes, and
even brighter outlook on life, Sophia is no ordinary PA! And Grey is
beginning to wonder why he's hired her…
Sophia is
nervous about
her first temporary assignment, and falling for her boss is the
last
thing she needs. But how can she not want to get personal with
broodingly handsome Grey? He may not be the commitment type, but she
has a warm, generous heart that may be just what this grumbly boss
needs!
