I’ll start by saying that I loved this book, loved it, loved it. When you go into the book, you think it’s going to be a typical love story between boss and employee. BUT NO….this is soooooo much more. The book follows Chloe, who is trying to move forward from having her heart broken, and Garrett her charming and caring boss.The book starts with Garrett overhearing a private conversation between Chloe and her fiancé Trevor, who is a complete “Dimwit”, this is the call where Chloe ends up homeless, broke and heartbroken. Not sure how to help Chloe but feeling that he needs to help her, he somehow ends up inviting her to stay with him at his ranch while she gets herself back on her feet.Chloe and Garrett seem to settle quite quickly into a roommate/friendly routine, the tension between them doesn’t take long to appear. And when things do finally happen between them, things get hot. Garrett and Chloe can’t seem to keep their hands off each other, leading to some funny and awkward situations. Both of these seem to have doubts with each other and what they want from this whole situation.I loved the story of Garrett and Chloe, but the secondary characters played quite a major part in this book. We get to meet Chloe’s crazy and completely different best friends, Garrett’s over whelming mother, flirty brother and typical teenager sister. But my favourites would have to be Kali and Josh. Kali has such an amazing back story and yet she seems to have such an appreciation for everything around her. I love her and Josh together, they are the typical young love couple. Kali and Chloe’s bond and relationship within this book was so heart-warming to read about, and the effort that Chloe goes to help Kali is awe inspiring.Garrett and Chloe’s relationship moves quickly considering the reason for them being together, but they work. They just fit and it seems like the leap from friends to more was almost effortless, minus a few little insecurities and miss-communication. I am so pleased that things worked out like they did for these two. Well done Maggie Kaye on such a heart-warming and fantastic read. Look forward to the next books to come.Stacey
