I absolutely loved this story! It’s Catherine Bybee at her best! Strong women characters with an inner core of strength and good values, men who are chivalrous, sexy and just the right amount of alpha, yum!

Pregnant from a one-night-stand, Piper was fired from her job and wondering how she would pay her rent. Chase and Alexandrea Stone’s father died, they were estranged for many years so there was no sadness there, but to their surprise, they inherited his whole estate, together with an unknown brother. They have one year to find the missing brother or they will lose everything. Such an interesting premise for a story!

When Chase and Alex arrive at their father’s company headquarters, they know they’re in over their heads and need help soon. When they learn that the assistant was fired under suspicious circumstances, they hire her back and hit the mother lode. She knows a lot about their father’s business, schedule, sleazy habits, etc. She’s invaluable as a help in finding out stuff they need to manage the company. She’s also beautiful, intelligent, and sassy so she sparks Chase’s interest. He loves that she says what she feels and takes no crap from him, gives it back just as snarky.

The love story is fantastic, the missing brother mystery is riveting, and the inheritance and boardroom shenanigans super interesting. The pace was great, the characters wonderful, the sexy times sublime. It’s a page turner that left me enthralled and desperate for the next installment. Superb!

This was really cute! I absolutely loved Chase. And his relationship with his sister, Alex. And, obviously, the wholesomely slow burn romance between him and Piper. I also really enjoyed the mystery aspect of the plot as well. Will definitely be picking up the sequel when it comes out.
