Review: Judding a Book by Its Cover – L. D. Blakely

Agonizingly shy Emory North has his life mapped out for him: finish his business degree, go to work for his father, and one day take over as CEO of North Star Publishing. More at home amongst stacks of books, Emory has little to no interest in his lot as ‘North Jr.’, but has never had the courage to follow his true passion—writing.

Brash and ballsy Bryce Palmer, editor-in-chief of ECLIPSE magazine is known for bedding and discarding PAs like yesterday’s newspaper. He’s up against a serious deadline and down two staff members. And the last thing he has time for is babysitting the spoiled rich son of a CEO. But when Pierce Barclay North insists now is the time for his heir apparent to get his feet wet in the company waters, Palmer’s hands are tied.

But looks can be deceiving. And, sometimes, passion can spark in the most unlikely of places…

Reviewer’s Thoughts

This book was exactly what I needed last night. Short, to the point, and incredibly sexy.

Emory’s painful shyness made him absolutely adorable, and watching Bryce’s stern manner melt away, after an…interesting…night at a party, had me smiling a mile wide. And the sex? WHEW! I have a new respect for desks 🙂

As I said, it is a short story. I read it in less than an hour, but it was incredibly satisfying. If you like your Manlove hot but sweet, “Judging a Book By It’s Cover” is perfect for you. I highly recommend it.
