Description:
A sassy, sexy, laugh-out-loud rom-com between the hottest man never to be tamed and the woman crazy enough to try
SHE WANTS TO CHANGE THE WORLD.
Taylor Reed is no stranger to selfish, uncaring CEOs. She was fired by one, which is why she has created her own executive training program—helping heartless bosses become more human. So Taylor shocks even herself when she agrees to coach Bennett Wade, the cutthroat exec who got her unceremoniously canned. She’d love to slam the door in his annoying but very handsome face, but the customers aren’t exactly lining up at her door. Plus, this extreme makeover will give Taylor the golden opportunity to prove that her program works like a charm.
HE WANTS TO BUY IT.
Bennett Wade is many things—arrogant, smug, brusque—but trusting isn’t one of them. Women just seem to be after his billions. So when he hires Taylor Reed, he has no desire to change. Bennett is trying to win over the feminist owner of a company he desperately wants to buy, but something about the fiery Taylor thaws the ice around his heart, making Bennett feel things he never quite planned on. And if there’s one thing Bennett can’t stand, it’s when things don’t go according to plan.
They are a match tailor-made for trouble.
Review copy provided for an honest review
How much do I adore Mimi’s writing??! She manages to create characters that I fall love with, no matter how detestable they originally seem. They all get redeemed in ways that surprises me and makes me want them to have their happy ending.
Tailored for Trouble perfectly fit this Mimi-mold. Bennet Wade was hilarious in his utter crassness when he was being rude, and devastating in his vulnerability when he opened up. I never managed to hate him because he was truly over-the-top brash, and by the end, I adored him. As for Taylor, I loved her inner monologue and honesty. I found this story to be adorable and whimsical and it drew me in like a fairy tale where I wanted the downtrodden princess to find her happy ever after with her beastly prince.
If you haven’t read the first Happy Pants Café story, that shouldn’t prevent you from checking out this one. The folklore of the Happy Pants Café is that one taste of their special love cookies and you will find your true love within seven days. But who believes in myths like that? Like Scheherazade telling tales in the Arabian Nights, the Happy Pants Café story is an overarching theme that ties stories together, but not having read the prequel will not take away from enjoyment from this tale. It’s sweet and funny and engaging, and has everything that makes Mimi Jean Pamfiloff an author that you need to check out.
