She's wanted her boss for way too long. Now she's got him right where she wants him...or does she? Find out in this steamy workplace romance from USA TODAY bestselling author Maureen Child!

From invisible assistant...to irresistible siren!

She's crossed the line.

For Tessa Parker, the most intoxicating thing about working at premium vodka producer Graystone Spirits is her off-limits boss. Yet she's never gotten CEO Noah Graystone to see her as anything but his loyal assistant. Finally fed up enough to tender her resignation, she agrees to one last business trip to London together--and seizes her chance for a no-strings-attached seduction! But is their steamy six-day fling the last call?

From Harlequin Desire: Luxury, scandal, desire--welcome to the lives of the American elite.



Noah Graystone is the CEO of Graystone Fine Spirits. His younger siblings Stephanie and Matthew also work for the company. Graystone Fine Spirits is a family business started by their grandfather. Noah was the closest to their grandfather and made a promise to him and himself that he would make the company number one after Noah’s father almost ran it to the ground. Unlike his siblings, Noah eats, sleeps, and breathes the company.

Tessa Parker has been Noah’s assistant for five years. She’s been in love with him almost the whole time she’s worked for him. She’s had to endure making reservations for dinners with other women and even buying “it was fun, now it’s over” gifts. She’s done this all while wishing Noah’s attention was on her as a woman. Finally, after all of these years, she has had enough. She’s tired of being at Noah’s beck and call 24/7. Yes, he does call at all hours and expects her to jump. Tessa wants a life and time to grow her online business. Plus, she really wants a dog and to be able to spend quality time with it.

Tessa gives Noah her two weeks notice and the one thing she’s been wanting to give him for the past five years, a kiss. Big mistake. One kiss doesn’t come close to being enough. Tessa’s last week working for Noah entails a business trip to London. She suggests they use their time abroad to spend more time together, which Noah is more than happy to agree to. But all too soon, they both realize the temporary arrangement they have is something they want to continue. But can Tessa really find love with a man who is already married to his job and views personal relationships as a distraction?

Boss/employee, office romances are nothing new. Maureen Child took this trope and made it fun. Laughs definitely come at the expense of Noah. He’s a self-absorbed alpha who always thinks he’s right. He doesn’t see things from other people’s perspectives. He’s not prepared for or knows how to handle the feelings he has for Tessa once she sets their love affair in motion.

I loved Tessa and Noah beyond measure. They have this great back and forth banter. Their chemistry is off the charts. She really is perfect for him. I really hope Six Nights of Seduction turns into a series. Noah’s siblings both work just as hard as he does, and they need to find love as well.

~ FAVORITE QUOTES ~
