Life is passing Nadia Duskin by from her position in the mailroom. It only fulfills two necessities, keeping the repo man away and keeping her up to date on her sexy CEO. Ethan Wright is prepared to frighten and fire the nosey girl who sorts his company’s mail. After engaging with her at one of his favorite places in the world, he digs deeper. Together, they find the kind of pleasure that could keep them satisfied for a lifetime. Her love may be the key to putting both of their lives back on track, but to what end? When a man he’s been contracted to kill threatens Nadia’s life, he forces her to face reality. Either they’ll delve deeper into the desires neither expected or they may die trying.

This book was an absolute pleasure to read.Β  The blurb rather intrigued me, so I decided to give it a go, and I was not sorry.

Nadia is a clerk in the mailroom at the company run by Ethan Wright, and she’s fantasized about him pretty much since the day she was hired.Β  Ethan is aΒ very private person, however, and when he finds out that she’s asked a few personal questions about him, he’s ready to fire her.Β  Once he meets her,Β though, he changes his mind.Β  Their relationship builds slowly.Β  They both love going to the Art Institute, especially to view a particular set ofΒ windows.Β  So, they meet there for lunch every day.Β  She falls hard, and so does he, but he’s got his fingers into some very dangerous pies, and heΒ doesn’t want to see her her.

There, the fun begins…and it really was fun to read.Β  I loved both of these characters.Β  They were strong and intriguing on their own, but when theyΒ got together, there was a chemistry that was combustible.Β  Their love for each other was very fierce, and when they begain to have sex, it goesΒ completely off the charts.Β  Their love scenes were intense and oh, so hot!Β  They had feeling of a kind of desparation to them.Β  They’ve found what theyΒ were looking for in each other, and they’re clinging to it with everything they had.

Of course, everything isn’t simply all wine and roses.Β  As I said, Ethan is inolved with some very dangerous things with some very dangerous people.Β  InΒ order to protect her, Ethan tries pushing Nadia away, and that breaks both of their hearts.Β  There are also some misundertandings along the way as well,Β and some angst as well.Β  All in all, it’s a perfect mix, and it makes the story flow smoothly.

This was the first book that I’ve read by SJ Maylee, and I have no idea why.Β  I can’t believe that I haven’t discovered her by now, and I’m so glad IΒ have now.Β  She’s got a new fan in me, and I can’t wait to read more of her stories.Β  I highly recommend this one. Five stars all the way!
