It’s no mystery that in the last couple years or so, Katy Evans has become one of my favorite authors. I’m loving everything she brings to the table, however, when I first read the synopsis for Boss, I have to be honest and say, I was a tad bit skeptical. Office romances are a hit or miss with me, either I love them or I highly dislike them. There is no middle ground when it comes to this trope. To say I was scared to dive into this one would be a complete understatement. Well, the verdict is in and I’m so glad I requested this advanced copy of Boss by Katy Evans.
I loved everything about this sexy office romance!
I really enjoyed Kit Walker’s swoony and sexy as sin vibes. I’m a sucker for the reformed playboy type heroes and Kit surely didn’t disappoint. Although he wasn’t as alpha as I would have liked, he definitely had that protective/possessive vibe down. Kit swept me away from the very beginning. He is such a dreamy man, or maybe the dreaminess has to do with his slight british accent!
Where Kit was swoony, Alex was feisty as hell! I loved not only her determination but also her stubbornness.
There are so many dynamics to this novel that I loved, from the humor, to the swoony sexy time scenes, and ending with the short-lived angst filled moments. But I have to say the chemistry between Alexandra and Kit was the main reason why this one was such a big hit for me. The slow burn portion of this novel really let us get to know Kit and Alexandra on different points. I loved watching their endless flirtations and actually seeing each character step out of the box they hid behind. And let’s not forget to mention, the fire that ignited when these two entered the same room. It made for a much sweeter romance.
I do have to say, there was a moment in this novel that seriously pissed me off. That’s the only reason why I dropped a star. I wish authors would stop making characters assume the worst and have this huge conflict… wouldn’t it be so much simpler if the characters actually believed their partners?… I do love the drama though, but I’d like it a little less, especially when I’m vibing on the couple.
Overall, I really enjoyed Boss by Katy Evans. This is definitely an office romance I can proudly put up high on my bookshelf. After catching a glimpse of William (Alastair’s oldest son) towards the end of Boss, I’m definitely intrigued to read more and continue on with this series! I can’t wait for more.
