Author: Layla Hagen
Genre: Contemporary, Romance
Release Date: September 10, 2019
Ruling his LA hotel empire through determination and hard work, Reid Davenport is a mystery to many. Despite the media’s interest in him, Reid steers clear of the limelight--until his life is broadcast in the tabloids, endangering not only his privacy, but that of his parents and his little sister.
He’d do anything to protect them…except listen to the fiery and intelligent PR pro, who's as beautiful as she is tempting. Every time she walks into his office, he fantasizes about bending her over his desk and kissing her. Every time she smiles at him, he wants to pull her closer and not let go.
Hailey Connor doesn’t take on uncooperative clients. But the second she meets Reid, she’s compelled to stay and help, even if she must fight his own broody ass to do it. He’s bossy, demanding and so sinfully alluring that she knows she's in over her head. Reid may be infuriating, but when he talks about his family, she can’t help but melt a little.
With every kiss, they grow closer. With every touch, they fall deeper. They’re opposites…yet perfect matches. But when their different worlds collide, will it tear them apart or bring them together?

Disclaimer: I received an Advance Reader Copy at no cost from the publisher/author. All opinions in my review are my own.
This book has the feeling of chatting with an old friend, which I love. And that is saying something about the author's writing. I admit that I haven't read the other books in this series, but that doesn't mean that this book was hard to follow. This is one of those books that is perfect cover to cover.
The plot of the story is realistic and satisfying. I was totally compelled to read more. There are sufficient complications for the main characters to keep the story interesting and keep the pace.
Hailey is the bee's knees at her job and her new assignment is helping Reid cool the media fires that his ex has started. Reid is hoping that it all just blows over. I loved how much of a free spirit Hailey is. She is so caring and honest. Reid is a tough cookie on the outside but warm and gooey on the inside. Especially when it comes to his family. I loved that about him. Both Hailey and Reid exhibit their own level of stubbornness as well.
The romance in this story unfolds like only an opposites attract story can. They both cannot deny the attraction that they have to each other. They start honing in on those bits of someone that ultimately makes us fall in love with them. The fact that Hailey and Reid were opposites only proved to intensify that. Reid falls for Hailey's 'seize the day' attitude and Hailey can see the little parts of him that hide away.
Overall, I was mesmerized by Hailey and Reid's story. Getting a dose of their adorable romance has left me wanting more. I will definitely be going back to read the other books in this series. I am looking forward to reading more from this author and I most certainly recommend this one.

“You can’t just go around commanding everyone to do what you want.”I loved her fierceness. Her fire. It drew me to her like nothing else.“Generally, I can. But that wasn’t my intention here.”Honestly, I had no fucking idea what my intention had been. I’d called Cameron on a whim, which went against everything I knew about myself.“So what was it, then?” Her eyes flashed. I wanted to kiss her. Lift her up in my arms, hold her against that bar and bury myself inside her.“You’re beautiful when you’re all worked up like this.”Her cheeks flushed. “I’m serious. I want an explanation.”“I don’t have one, Hailey.” I stepped right in front of her, breathing her in, losing myself in her citrusy scent, the shape of her lips. “I’m not an impulsive man, never have been. I don’t make spur of the moment decisions, and I definitely don’t act irrationally.”I’d always been the type to think everything through, to weigh pros and cons before acting. I wanted to do everything differently with Hailey. Correction. It wasn’t simply that I wanted to. It was something stronger. I had to.I cupped her cheek. Her eyes widened, but she didn’t attempt to move away.“Since meeting you, I keep doing things I never thought I would do.”I cupped her other cheek as well, and when she parted her lips, darting out the tip of her tongue just a bit, licking that lower lip, I couldn’t control myself anymore. I buried my hands in her luscious hair, kissing her hard. I needed to explore every single curve.Most of all I needed to know what she needed and give her exactly that.I moved to kiss her cheek, up her temple, then down to her neck. Hailey hummed slightly, and it was all the encouragement I needed. I slipped a hand between us, touching her breast, circling the nipple until I felt it tighten and push through the fabric. I remembered how it had felt to touch her in the pool, how I’d barely kept myself from slipping my hands under the tiny bikini and touching her bare skin. I couldn’t hold back tonight. It was impossible.I lifted her dress, turning rock hard when I realized she already had goose bumps on her thighs, as if she’d been yearning for my touch just as much as I’d been craving to give it to her.
