Blurb:

Aubrey Kendrick has dedicated her life to continuing the family legacy. Her time isn't just money, it's millions. A workaholic? Yes. According to her ex, she's married to her job. Is her personal life dull? Maybe. Is her penthouse rather lonely? There's no time to answer that question.

Too many men have asked her to sacrifice her success to pacify their fragile egos. She'd rather be single than stifled.

Until Landon McClellan strolls into her office and upends her life. He's as infuriating as he is handsome. He believes spontaneity keeps life interesting and is only happy if he's rattled her nerves.

Landon is every distraction she cannot afford. But maybe he's everything she needs.

My Review:

3.5 stars — It was definitely cute, but it felt like what it was: a bonus novella to top off a series.  I wasn’t expecting the prologue and epilogues, but I thought they worked okay as a way to finally introduce Aubrey and Landon’s story.

Aubrey was pretty awesome.  I appreciated how smart she was and how much passion she had for her business.  Sure, she was flawed and holding on to some old hurts, but it worked okay for the story.

I do get why Aubrey thought Landon was too good to be true, because he really did come across that way.  I got bits of why he was so drawn to her, but maybe not to the extent given the level of interaction they had.

Yet still, I enjoyed them together.  It was fun to watch his careful but dogged pursuit, and to see him work himself under her armor.

So yeah.  Definitely a solid novella, but for some reason I kept waiting for something more…but I think that’s my own expectations at fault.
