In Love With Lucy by C.C. Wood Review

5 Smooches

Synopsis

Lucy Daniels’ dreams are finally coming true. After three years of working for one of the youngest, most ambitious CEO’s in Dallas, she has the opportunity to leave it all behind and begin her career as a photographer.

Lucy’s girlfriends think she’s nuts for leaving a job that pays well and includes a boss who doubles as eye candy. What they don’t know is that Christopher James Barden the Third may be pretty to look at but he has a giant stick up his ass.

However, Lucy is about to discover that Chris Barden has been fighting his attraction for his gorgeous, extroverted assistant since she started working for him. Now that she intends to leave, she’s fair game. Because Chris has wanted Lucy for a long time and he always gets what he wants.

Review

Lucy has been working for a sexy ass of a man for 3 long years. She has been working under him but secretively he would like her to just be under him. Lucy has been working as an assistant but her true passion is Photography. When a successful showing of her work propels her to put in her notice to Chris, he uses that as an excuse to finally make his feelings and intentions known to her.

This novella by C.C. Wood is a funny, smart and super sexy read. Being a novella I do not want to delve to far into it so that I don’t give anything away.  This story had me from the beginning since I love a workplace romance and I was surprised how much I fell in love with Chris. The forceful way he pursued Lucy had me tingling in all the right spots and still it came off very sweet too!

Not only were the two characters so much fun for me but I am in LOVE with Lucy’s friends and I really hope each one of them gets their own story line. For me, Novella’s are often hit or miss since it can be hard to put a well formed story into a short amount of time. For me this is where C.C. Wood excels where so many others have failed. She always seems to know just the right mix of story line, humor and steam!  I enjoyed every minute of In Love With Lucy  and cannot wait for more from this series.
