I have just finished withLove Isn't Blind: A Sweet and Special Romances Collectionand one of the ones on the next page of my list was Baby Girl and the Mean Boss. I was kinda hoping for sweetness, but this time I got honesty. Pepper Pace is my new discovery, and she's really talented with a heart loyal to the theme of what she writes--good writer's instinct. Baby Girl, or Nicole, is a young woman hardened by life's hard tests, but has a heart riddled with scars. Baby Girl may break your heart and you will love her. Marty, the Mean Boss, is tough as nails on the outside but has a soft heart in the inside--and as riddled with scars as Nicole's. The opportunity for both of them to discover each other's true self came when Nicole got into an accident, and it was Marty who came to her rescue. I knew he's in love with her from the start and how he loved her throughout is terribly romantic! I love the premise of the story, the romance is sweet and full of heart, and the sex is hot, beautiful, and truthful. Dialogues are witty and realistic. The only thing I didn't like about this book is the poor editing and proofreading. Of course, the unique dialogue of the characters made them more believable and realistic, but there were just numerous grammatical mistakes that distracted because of how obviously lost they were in the text. This needed a smart editor. Aside from that, it's a beautiful story of interracial romance and is highly recommended. As I said, just don't mind the errors because it's really good!
