About this ebook
From Sunday Times and #1 New York Times bestselling author of Things We Never Got Over
Dominic:
I got her fired.
Okay, so I'd had a bad day, but there's nothing innocent about Ally Morales. Maybe her colourful, annoying, inexplicably alluring personality brightens up the magazine's offices that have felt like a prison for the past year. Maybe I like that she argues with me in front of the editorial staff. And maybe my after-hours fantasies are haunted by her brown eyes and sharp tongue.
She's working herself to death at half a dozen dead-end jobs for some secret reason. And I'm going to fix it all. Don't accuse me of caring. She's nothing more than a puzzle to be solved. If I can get her to quit, I can finally peel away all those layers. Then I can go back to salvaging the family name and forget all about the dancing, beer-slinging brunette.
Ally:
Ha. Hold my beer, Grumpy Grump Face.

Three and a half stars. I think it must be a sign of getting old when you think, 'this would have been a much better book if the author didn't insist on filling it with sex every five minutes'. And OMG the angst! Free on my Kindle Unlimited subscription and I received an ARC from the publisher via NetGalley.

I honeslty loved this book, I couldn't put it down! Lucy is my favourite authour at the moment and I've read most of her books available on the play books app. A far cry from the psychological thrillers that I usually enjoy, but theres something about the way she builds the stories and the characters that go with them. I can picture them all, I've laughed, I've cried and I've thoroughly enjoyed them. I have recently been struggling with burn out as I'm a mum, a university student and I'm working a demanding job, these books have really helped me to look forward to carving some me time into each day to do something I love. I love to read, and this book is one of my new faves!
About the author
Lucy Score is a Sunday Times and #1 New York Times bestselling author. She grew up in a literary family who insisted that the dinner table was for reading and earned a degree in journalism. She writes full-time from the Pennsylvania home she and Mr. Lucy share with their obnoxious cat, Cleo. When not spending hours crafting heartbreaker heroes and kick-ass heroines, Lucy can be found on the couch, in the kitchen, or at the gym. She hopes to someday write from a sailboat, or oceanfront condo, or tropical island with reliable Wi-Fi.
