This is a fantastically fun standalone romance with a great list of tropes \u2013 billionaire, boss\/employee, grumpy\/sunshine, fake relationship, enemies-to-lovers, Christmas, it\u2019s set in Paris and, of course, it\u2019s MFM (where they\u2019re all about her).

It’s delicious holiday fun for anyone who likes being on Santa’s naughty list\u2014and for anyone who dreams of two men worshiping them at once.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Add to Goodreads<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 4.5 stars<\/b><\/p>\n This is a fantastically fun standalone romance with a great list of tropes \u2013 billionaire, boss\/employee, grumpy\/sunshine, fake relationship, enemies-to-lovers, Christmas, it\u2019s set in Paris and, of course, it\u2019s MFM (where they\u2019re all about her). It\u2019s wildly sexy and gorgeously swoony, and I loved this book!<\/p>\n Tristan and Braxton are billionaire CEOs of their own pharmaceutical company. Tristan is the serious and broody businessman while Braxton is the fun and charming science guy. They\u2019re about to travel to Paris for Christmas, where Tristan will face up to the expectation of his family to not only move to Paris to take over the family hotel business, but to marry, and they\u2019ve got a bunch of women lined up for him to meet. His salvation comes in the form of his assistant, Waverley.<\/p>\n Waverley is smart and independent, and she\u2019s struggling under the weight of family debt. When her boss offers her a lifeline, she reluctantly accepts his offer to act as his fake girlfriend in front of his family during their business trip to Paris, for a very healthy bonus which will pay off her debts. But it soon becomes clear that her bosses \u2013 Braxton in particular \u2013 have something more in mind.<\/p>\n I pat the chair directly between Tristan and me. The one I intentionally left open when I sat down. \u201cWe need to present a united front. Two CEO\u2019s, one exceptional assistant.\u201d Braxton and Tristan are as close as brothers, and they have shared women in the past but never really gotten emotionally invested. With Waverley, everything is different. Braxton is unabashedly in love with their assistant, and he has decided that their trip is the perfect time to claim her \u2013 ideally with Tristan as part of the relationship, he just has to get him to agree.<\/p>\n \u201cIf you\u2019re willing and wanting, there could be more here than any of us has allowed ourselves to imagine.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n It\u2019s such a great set-up, and the dynamics between these three are so freaking good. Braxton and Waverley have an easy friendship which quickly becomes more as Braxton makes his move. Waverley and Tristan\u2019s relationship is more complex. He is controlling and moody and she hates him, yet he is secretly harbouring feelings for her but knows that he can\u2019t get involved due to the expectations of his family. It\u2019s a melting pot of lust and feelings and the chemistry is wild, and I loved watching these three bicker, tease and banter, and find their way to exploring something really special.<\/p>\n I feel like I could have this. Like maybe it\u2019s my turn, and life is too fucking short not to go after what I truly want. I don\u2019t even know what my breaking point was. I just know I hit it. <\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n This book is wickedly sexy. Saman doesn\u2019t hold back in exploring the near insatiable physical relationship between these three, and it works for them in all kinds of ways (note \u2013 there is no m\/m relationship in this one). And more than that, the relationship is functional and beautifully romantic. I could see how they all loved each other, how they worked together, and it felt so real. The three of them all bring something unique to the relationship, and they just fit, and I loved seeing them figure it all out.<\/p>\n \u201cOh, Sunshine. There hasn\u2019t been a moment since I laid eyes on you where you weren\u2019t already mine.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t want this life if I can\u2019t have you with me.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Amidst the funny and sweet moments and all the sexy time, there is some drama and really nice emotional development, and I got swept up in the romance of this story. It\u2019s such a great read, and I loved it.<\/p>\n 4.5 stars.<\/p>\n An Advanced Reader Copy was generously provided by the author for an honest review.<\/i><\/p>\n <\/p>\n J.

\n\u2026 Waverley hesitates, then gathers her things and moves to the chair between us.
\n\u201cPerfect,\u201d I say, leaning back in my chair. \u201cHow does it feel, Waverley, to be the filling in our corporate sandwich?\u201d
\nTristan nearly chokes on his coffee and has to wipe a dribble of it from his chin. \u201cFor fuck\u2019s sake.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
