Growth and Lessons

I liked Jessica and Derrick's tale. They're both workaholics and have no social lives. I love how Derrick sees something worth changing that for and he pursues it, pursues her.

Flesh and blood, with hormones, needs, and all the other stuff she’d tucked into the ‘I’ll deal with it later’ compartment.

This was a good office romance. Jessica and Derrick had really good chemistry from the beginning and I enjoyed reading their story. I would have preferred the story to have been written in the first person and maybe dual point of view, but that it just my personal preference for romance.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Derrick and Jessica's story was frustratingly good. Derrick a reformed workaholic who still slips falls for the woman who makes him work for her attention and is a current workaholic. Life's circumstances has made her decide that she'll work until she knows that she can adequately care for herself without depending on anyone else. She tries not to get mixed up with the tall, dark and handsome furniture maker, turned maintenance man, only he's soooo much more. Will she be accepting of who he really is after the fall, or will his lies of omission doom them?

Kameron once again takes my attention completely and hoards it until I complete one of her stories... I love it!.

I downloaded Bedding the Boss for free after recieving an email stating that over 300 books were available for FREE for a limited time only.
Bedding the boss is 185 pages long, so quite a small book really. I managed to read it in one day, mainly because I couldn't put it down, to the point where I kept sneaking off for bathroom breaks at work just so I could fit in an extra chapter here and there.

What I enjoyed about this book is that the storyline was really interesting and believable. I often find that steamy romance books can become a little far-fetched but Bedding the Boss stuck to reality throughout. I also noticed that the dialogue wasn't forced. They talked to each other how you and I would speak to each other, so the conversations all flowed really well. Notice how I called this book a steamy romance? It's because it is just that and could be developed in to a great romance movie whereas a lot of books in this genre are PWP (porn with plot). Not like I've got anything against that, I just like the plot to be the main focus.

As you may know from my previous reviews, character development is extremely important to me. The good news is Kameron Claire has managed to tick all the boxes here with both Derrick and Jessica. I liked the fact that Jessica was a strong lead which is often not the case in this genre. I liked that she can look after herself and is a strong, independent woman with or without Derrick.
I like how the author explained Derrick's feelings and ensured that though not perfect, he wasn't a d*** and wasn't the dominating, jealous, toxic male lead that is commonly used.

I also appreciate that the author has used 'normal' names in the book for her characters.

I'm going to follow the author on goodreads and hopefully when I've got through my huge to read list, I'll continue with the Greyson Enterprises series.
