Don't Quit The Day Job by J.S. Cooper
3.5
funny lighthearted
Strong character development: No

***Book Review ***
Don't Quit the Day Job (The Annoying Hot Bosses Club, Book 1) by J.S.  Cooper
Available on Kindle Unlimited!

Max Spector is a rich, grumpy, hot lawyer who can't keep an assistant. His friend/partner at his law firm bet him $1000 that he couldn't keep his next assistant for a month, AND he had to pick the next person he meets who's looking for a job. In walks Lila Haversham, blonde and bubbly aspiring actress and broke as a joke goofball. She's hired! Heavy flirting and thinly veiled come-ons begin immediately form both parties, because even though they can't stand one another's personalities, they also find each tother insanely attractive.

This book had a lot of laughs, and it was a quick read. It was pretty cute overall, but it lacked character development and depth. There was a moderate amount of spice, including at least one surprising kink.

I liked the concept of the story, but the execution missed the mark for me. I just wasn't believing the relationship. I also couldn't believe how much immediate sexual harassment was going on, especially for lawyers. Like, jeez, at least give it an hour! 😅 I thought there would be some build-up to the sexual tension at least!
