My Review 3.5 STARS ARC kindly provided in exchange for an honest review. My first read by author Ainsley St Claire and I am pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to love Corrine and Jackson. Corrine has been Jackson's highly efficient assistance who helped him get his life together, but when a mystery stalker appeared to harass and threaten Corrine, Jackson stepped in for her safety. Sparks fly and suddenly Jackson saw her under a new light, one where he realized that his admiration goes beyond lust and stepping into the territory of... love. But with the danger lurking and after being burned by a man before, will Corrine take a second chance at love? Especially when Jackson was the same kind of man who broke her heart once? What I loved: 1. Corrine - How can you not love this independent, no-nonsense, highly efficient woman in heels. Everything about her "boss lady" personality had me looking up to her and admired her for the way she handles herself even in a demeaning situation. 2. I just love the mansion in Hawaii and those over the top poker games. Living the billionaire lifestyle does have its perks. So much fun! Things I wished would be executed better. 1. The entire mystery harasser plot. The book actually set off on a good start, nothing like a bomb threat scene to reel you in and keep you captivated, but somewhere in the middle, I felt as if the writing lost sight of that as the couple's dynamic took center stage, the mystery harasser plot took a backseat and was overshadowed by other things going on in the storyline. It was too much, too many, at the same time, it kinda threw off the pacing a little for me and I found myself speeding through the chapters. When it came to the reveal, I was a little bummed that I guessed it right from the start. 😂 2. Seconding my point in no. 1 with the pacing, I was unsatisfied with how Jackson seemed to "suddenly" viewed Corrine as something other than his assistant. Maybe I just missed the trigger and needed a reread, but I found this bit a little odd and would love it better if we have a little background from Jackson's POV just to get a feel of their relationship. I do love Corrine and Jackson so this is just a minor setback. Other than that, it was a good read and recommended to those who love a good billionaire/assistant trope with a side of thrill and mystery! A Christian Grey novel minus The Red Room.
