Darian King has never met a challenge he couldn’t handle. Running a billion-dollar corporation? Piece of cake. Hostile takeovers? A walk in the park. But when his little sister begs him to plan her wedding, Darian finds himself less than prepared for the task. Luckily, he knows just who to ask for help.Allison Reed wants nothing more than to leave King Enterprises behind. Being the personal assistant to a man like Darian is a 24/7 job. Asking her to help plan a wedding is simply the icing on the stress-filled cake but to leave she needs a glowing reference and will do anything to get it. Even plan a wedding with the man of her dreams.
Stepping outside the office has unexpected consequences. Darian doesn’t believe in relationships, yet he’s starting to see Allison in a whole new light. But he doesn’t know her secret, and she fears that by the time the vows are exchanged, she won’t just be leaving her job behind but her heart as well.
Victoria Davies’s passion for writing started young. Luckily she had a family who encouraged believing in magic and embracing imagination. From stories quickly scribbled in diaries, her love of storytelling developed. Since then her characters may have evolved and her plots may have grown decidedly more steamy but she never lost her love of the written word. Writing is not only a way to silence the wonderful voices in her head, but it also allows her to share her passions with her readers.
Currently she writes from Toronto, Canada. While she has a healthy love for the unknown, this corner of the world will always be her home.

MY REVIEW
EXCERPT
“Hello,” Darian greeted
when she opened the door.
She caught her breath.
As always, he was impeccable in his tailored suit. This time, however, he’d
chosen to wear all black. The only color on him was the blue of his scarf.
While the dark shade might have overpowered a lesser man, Darian appeared even
more commanding than usual. She
had no doubt he would
turn every female head when they walked into the restaurant.
A thrill raced through
her at the knowledge that, for tonight at least, he was hers.
“Hi,” she replied,
clutching the door.
His eyes swept over her.
“You look amazing.” Reaching beside the door, she grabbed her coat and purse
from the waiting hooks.
“All ready?” he asked as
she pulled the door shut behind her.
“I think I’ve got
everything.” She peered up at him to see him watching her with equal parts
amusement and hunger.
“What?” she asked.
“I’ve been careless.”
“How so?”
“That wasn’t a proper
greeting at all.” Not giving her a chance to protest, he crowded her up against
the door before his lips descended onto hers.
Allison melted into his
arms, more than willing to follow his lead. Her hands slid over his shoulders
to pull him closer. He kissed her as if they hadn’t seen each other in ages,
instead of the few hours it’d been since their last encounter in his office.
When he touched her this way she was tempted to forgo the dinner she’d been
looking forward to and simply invite him in. Thai takeout in bed sounded like
a worthy substitute,
right?
With a last brush of his
lips over hers, he pulled back.
“Now that,” he said,
“was a hello.”
“You have my
whole-hearted agreement. Good thing I invested in some kiss-proof lipstick.”
His eyes dropped to her
mouth. “That sounds like a challenge.”
With a laugh, she pushed
him away. “Food first. I’m starving.”
“All right, angel. Food
first. I made reservations at a little Italian place I love. Come on.” He took
her hand, leading her back toward the elevator.
As she followed him she
tried not to think too hard about the endearment that had fallen so easily from
his lips.
Or how just hearing it
sent the butterflies in her stomach into a whirlwind.

ENTER THE GIVEAWAY
This book was kinda the cliche billionaire falls
for secretary romance with a wedding thrown in but I have to admit I kinda
liked it.
I think I need to learn to pay attention to the
blurbs more because I went in with an idea of what I thought this book would be
and yet again I was wrong.
And although all the normal clichés did present
themselves in this story it was such a fun, cute read I enjoyed getting to know
the characters and seeing how it was going to play out.
And yes it was somewhat predictable but I was in
the mood for something sweet and drama light and this checked all the boxes.
“I want you naked, spread out under me. I want to see your head tossed back in pleasure as I sink into you. I want to hear you scream my name as I give you the most earth-shattering orgasm of your life.”
Throw in some great sex and some solid writing
and I had a great weekend read.
