Description:
I’ve always been a good girl.
I’ve only done two really bad things in my life–secretly live in the maid’s quarters of my beloved grams foreclosed beach house and lie to get a job as a personal assistant to billionaire Blake Carson.
My enemy, my lover, my savior.
He’s only two out of the three, if only I can figure out which two before I end up on the streets or in jail.
Or worse.
* If you like seductive serials from authors like Olivia Thorne, Hannah Ford, and Ainsley Booth…this is your kind of story.

Creative, innovative, imaginative are just three words that pop into my mind when I think of the 
pairing of Cari Quinn and Taryn Elliott. The Boss Vol 1 was all that and more and had me so engrossed that it only took me about three hours to read the story … I honestly couldn’t stop until I finished it.
Blake is an enigma … I have no idea exactly what his game is or what he’s thinking. Why the fascination with glass? Why hire Grace when she wasn’t on the list to be interviewed? He has an agenda and I have no idea what it is. I honestly can’t wait to find out just what it is, how much he really knows and how he’ll handle the situation. I know it won’t be with kid gloves since that, in no way, would be his style. He’s the Boss … there are reasons why all those other girls left in tears.
Grace’s agenda is abundantly clear – revenge and get her childhood home back. Blake Carson can have anything that he want’s in this world. Why would he want her grandmother’s beach house? Why buy it out from under her? Where is she going to live? She had no intention of working for him. But, when the opportunity presents itself, she decides that she’ll do whatever it takes to get to the bottom of things, find out the truth.
He’s a slave driver, she puts him in his place. She just can’t figure out why he’s so cold, so driven. Then, she finds out just how warm he can be and just how much her body craves what only he can give it.
So, there’s a cliffhanger … I was not a happy person with the way they ended this part of the story. Then, they have the nerve to tell us that Vol 2 is going to be Blake’s POV and not a continuance of the storyline. Ugh … at least I’ll find out what he’s thinking and feeling; just what he knows about Grace and her life. That was the only thing that stopped me from throwing my Kindle.
I can’t say enough good about the collaboration of Cari Quinn and Taryn Elliott. Their imaginations ran wild in this story. Alone, they are wonderful writers and I love their work. But together, they are spectacular. They wrote intriguing, interesting characters and a story that just flew off the pages. They brought us into the heart of Boston and to the shores of Marblehead. They gave us a strong, independent woman who showed that she could hold her own against the man who is taking everything away from her. They gave us a man who’s mysterious, a slave driver and definitely … The Boss.
I like the sound of this…thanks Kitty
I’m a huge fan of this author collaboration. What they’ve done with the Lost in Oblivion series is brilliant.
Not a huge fan of serials but may just wait for Volume 2 to come out before I start this one. Thanks for a really good review.
