Wow! I totally loved this book! I have been on a light reading binge lately not wanting anything to emotional or dark. I came across this and it sounded good so, of course I had to click.I found myself laughing so hard at some parts of this story, actually many parts. The family is hysterical and I loved each and every one of them. Even though there is a lot of laughter in this story, I did find that there was some really deep emotional material going on, but the way the author wrote it, the balance was perfect.The story focuses on Marley and I can’t tell you enough how much I adored her.  There are so many layers to Marley and each one is to protect her and those that she loves. Marley does not date or do commitments. She enjoys sex and uses certain men to alleviate the need when it calls to her. It is when she meets Rick that the layers begin to peel back and reveal the real Marley.Rick, just wait until you read about him, he is so hot I was often sweating. I loved how flirty he is and full of sexual innuendos. Rick is not over the top cocky business type man whore. He is a successful business man and he has suffered some loss in life but he did not become closed off from it. He has a very commanding and dominant presence but it does not consume the story or the relationship. It flows and works with the story. The stunts he pulls on Marley almost had me peeing in my pants.This is a relationship that should not happen. They work together and he is technically her boss but wow the sexual tension and chemistry is off the charts. Of course it should not happen but does and neither one of them can control themselves and they set rules to keep them both happy. The book has some of the best foreplay and sexual anticipation I have ever read, it was so much fun. I appreciated how Rick slowly broke the rules and broke through to Marley. It was not an easy ride and the funny stuff I talked about early is put aside and much of the painful side comes out as things change. Marley has a huge problem and it is not something that is easily dealt with or can be fixed. It takes real love for someone to see past it all and still be there. I love how the author wrote the scenes that were tough and when conflict hit in the story it made sense. I may not have been happy with the decision Marley makes in the story but I understood it. The author did not just make it all disappear because of love but, she made it better because of love.I can’t wait to read the next book which is already available called The Other F word. I believe it is about Marley’s carefree and beautiful mother. I love the title of these books, great play on words and I know what I thought immediately when I read the title.To sum up the book my C word is Charming!
