Book Boyfriend:💋💋💋
Bentley Leighton is in training to be the next CEO of the family business. A business he doesn’t want. He’s a former model and wants to do his own thing. He is smart, immature, and totally fighting right vs wrong amid his desires to sleep with his intern.

Strong Female Lead:💋💋💋💋💋
Cecelia (Cici) is a high school student who knows how to get what she wants. She dresses and acts like a college student and knows how to use that to get her way. She is determined to find the answers surrounding her father’s murder, which took place 7 years ago, any way she can. She breaks every rule to get closer to the information she needs. Regardless of her chemistry and attraction to Bentley, she stays focused on her ultimate goal.

Plot:💋💋💋
Cici is determined to find out what really went down with her father’s murder. She steals her sister’s ID and pretends to be her to get a college internship at a company who looks into cold cases. In the meantime, she gets up close and personal with the CEO in training.

Steamy Factor:💋💋💋💋
These 2 have an instant connection. The attraction is immediate. Both try to fight the line between right and wrong, but fail miserably. Both of these characters have sex on the mind. Anyway, they both want it and know how to get it and they can’t stop.

Overall:💋💋💋
The cold case story line kept me interested. I’m not sure I would be up for reading the next book in the series, except I really want to find out the truth behind the murder of Cici’s father. Plus, that ending – who knows what’s going to happen. Total cliffhanger.

Book Summary from author:
She’s sexy, fierce-mouthed know-it-all…and she’s completely off limits.

Cecilia isn’t your typical college student. Hell, she isn’t a college student at all, but that doesn’t stop her from applying for one of the biggest and prestigious enterprises in the Midwest.

She wants it. She takes it.

She doesn’t let anything get in her way when it comes to finding out the truth.

When Bentley Leighton, soon-to-be CEO of Leighton Enterprises, meets “Ceci,” he’s instantly impressed. He doesn’t have time to train a new intern. However, when he sees her that first day, his intentions begin to change.

He’s the boss. She’s the intern.

Nothing can happen. It’s against the company rules.

Then again, some rules were made to be broken.

What starts as innocent flirting becomes raveled up into so much more—secrets, lies, deceit.
