No one does Romantic Comedy quite like this author!
I’ve been following this trio of friends since their beginning and was very anxious for Rath.
Nothing could have prepared me for the side splitting antics contained in these pages. I snorted, I gasped, I full on cackled and did not care who was around to hear it.
But more than just the comedy, I felt it all. Quinn gave us a serious issue, and an unconventional solution. She gave us family, and friends, and lifelong bonds and people who fill more than one spot in your life.
Charlee and Rath gave us all of it, from beginning to end.

This book was one of the funniest Meghan Quinn books I have read so far...up until almost the end. The parts at the end made me feel for Rath and Charlee. Great ending and I love how Meghan has the ability to tie other book characters together. For example this book mentions Roark being the sport agent for a few players on the Bobbies.

"Will you do me the greatest honor of all time and be my bridegroom?” she asks, hope in her eyes . . .
How did I get here? My assistant, bent on one knee, holding my hand, her expectant face waiting for an answer.
Just . . . how?
How did I go from being insulted by Charlee Cox to hiring her to be my assistant? How is it that she’s chaos in color - making me crazy and my life better at the same time?
I never thought I would be staring down at her bright blue eyes begging me to go along with this ridiculous scheme I suggested.
Yes, I suggested. Like the idiot I am, I thought hey, why not start an HR nightmare and have my assistant ask me to marry her?
Confused? Don’t worry, so am I.
But try to follow along, because this is how I became Boss Man Bridegroom.
REVIEW:
Meghan Quinn delivers it all in Boss Man Bridegroom! A slow burn office romance between a gruff CEO and his office supply obsessed Executive Assistant? What more could you ask for. It has a hilarious meet cute and more great humor along with a few tear jerker moments between this power couple. Loved it!

This book is hysterical. It has been some time since a book made me giggle like a 12 year old girl. The beginning of this book was so much fun. I adored Charlee from the moment she walked onto the page. She is quirky and fun and is completely confident in who she is as a person. She is so smart and knows her value. Her interactions with these alpha men who appear to be cranky are so good. I love the initial interaction between the two of them is priceless. Charlee's verbal diarrhea is hysterical. Cox = bag of dicks. Who says that to a potential boss?
Charlee comes in and blows Rath's life apart. She seems so chaotic and yet she manages to completely figure him out in a manner of days. He doesn't realize he is being managed until it's done. She has completely invaded his world and improved it.
I adored her grandma and although I figured out pretty quickly that she was not being truthful about her situation, she was still a lot of fun.
Right now was the perfect time for a book that begins on such a light note. There is some misunderstanding and angst later in the story but it does not hijack the story.
I loved this book. I loved these characters. I would recommend this to everyone.

An Open Letter to Meghan Quinn (maybe you’ll read it; maybe you won’t)
Dear Meghan Quinn, funny woman extraordinaire,
You don’t know this, but I really needed your newest book, Boss Man Bridegroom, desperately. You see, I’m a blogger reviewer, and I’ve been reading a lot lately. A whole lot. I teach college students about college writing, and I’ve been on a break between semesters, so I had lots of great ARCs to read. However, I signed up for some emotional heavy hitters. I’m pretty sure I’ve been in an emotional tornado of feelings reading these beautifully-written books that have left me crying my eyes out. So…I needed a respite. And your book did that. Wonderfully.
You don’t know me. I’ve read two other books of yours: The Locker Room and Love, Sincerely, Yours, along with your short story in Team Player 2. I’ve got The Dugout sitting in my Kindle Library awaiting me when I finish my ARC reading because there is something funny and interesting about your storytelling. You engage me with your characters and dialogue in a way that keeps me reading until the very end. When I saw the blurb for Boss Man Bridegroom, you had me at “marriage of convenience.” Then, I entered the book and fell hard, so hard for these characters.
I didn’t have the advantage of reading Diary of a Bad Boy or The Secret to Dating Your Best Friend’s Sister prior to reading BMBG so I didn’t have the backstory of the hero, Rath’s, friends, Roark and Bram, but I didn’t need their stories to recognize that these heroes, Rath included, are absurdly hilarious. Bram and Rath’s relationship is almost better than Rath and Charlee’s. When the “Three Musketeers” ciome together in this story for their mutual milk-drinking game nights et al., the laughs are guaranteed. I couldn’t get enough of their brand of ridiculousness. As a hero, Rath is equal parts neurotic, absurd, sweet, and grumpy. I love that, as a reader, you never know the Rath you’ll read on the page. It keeps the reader guessing, and, of course, it sets up some key tension when necessary because rom-coms can’t always be funny. They need some climactic moment that potentially destroys the burgeoning love between the hero and heroine. Of course, Rath does a stellar job of inciting this moment with his brand of ignorance.
Thankfully, you’ve written one of the best heroines I’ve read this month. Charlee “Bag of D*cks” Cox is her own brand of special. What an intuitive, insightful, strong woman! She’s my favorite kind of rom-com queen because she knows how to handle the hero into his evolution. From the beginning, I found myself laughing aloud at her manipulation of Rath. Literally, I could have done a spit-take while reading this book if I had been drinking. Charlee is the heart of this book whereas Rath is its mind. Together, Charlee and Rath make reading Boss Man Bridegroom a fun experience. Add in the ancillary characters: Charlee’s grandmother, Bram’s assistant, Linus, Bram, and Roark, along with an Office Supply convention, and you have a story that alleviates any stress of your readers for a time.
So thank you, Meghan Quinn, for saving me from the heavy thinking, emotionally-wrought books that have sought to break my soul. Thank you for the levity that Boss Man Bridegroom brings to a Kindle. Thank you for creating a story that is uproariously funny and a little bit angsty. But, mostly, thank you for writing books that keep readers like me coming back for more. Even though you’re fairly new to me, you can guarantee that your booklist is next on my list to devour whole because your brand of funny is all I need to add a little bit of joy to my day.

But what happens when you can’t hide your feelings for her anymore, you’re married, and you actually start falling for her?
I just love this book (and this series). Charlee is the perfect match for Rath and her light and life and laughter balances out Rath's serious, broody nature to perfection. This book had me laughing out loud but also made me feel for these two as well. Meghan Quinn knows how to write and this is a great example of it.
