Ella Simpson loves her job at Montgomery Industry. She also loves her boss. Well... make that loved, because the man of her dreams—and one-sided email conversations—is getting married. Worse, she's been asked to serve as a bridesmaid at his destination wedding. Worse still, the best man is Blake York, her boss's partner and the man who read every single one of her humiliating emails and has been tormenting her ever since.
For three years, British Billionaire, Blake York has been secretly longing for his partner's sassy little personal assistant. She's beautiful, witty, and has a bubbly smile for everyone...except him. Ever since he discovered her little secret, she's given him the cold shoulder.
But, now that her secret crush is getting married, Blake seizes the opportunity to make her his… And he's not above a bit of old fashion blackmail to do it.
Review - 4 Stars
Ella
is a secretary/personal assistant for Andrew. Ella has had a crush on him
forever and has never had the courage to act on that crush. Ella runs
into some computer issues that she has to get help with. When Blake comes to
help Ella with her computer, Ella dreads him being around. Ella knows that
Blake is always trying to get her to go out with him. Ella is not interested
though because she only has eyes for her boss, Montgomery. Blake uncovers some
incriminating evidence Ella has kept on her computer. Blake uses that to his
advantage.
Skip to three years later, Andrew jumps up and all the sudden gets married to a young lady and shatters all of Ella's dreams. Blake knows that this is his opportunity to make a move on Ella. When Blake and Ella go to the resort for the wedding, Blake tricks Ella into having 8 dates with him. Blake wants to prove to Ella that they are right for each other. When they sleep together, Ella at first thinks that she is doing the right thing. Then Ella begins to have doubts and pushes Blake away again. Blake develops a new hate for Andrew thinking that she can't get over him and be with her. Little does she know, Ella is having some personal conflicts and is trying to work through all of them. Blake finally pretty much gives up and leaves right after Andrew's wedding. At almost the same time, Ella has a revelation that Blake is the one for her, she sees that now, thanks to Hannah, Andrew's new wife. Needless to say, Ella and Blake get their HEA and this was such a great story for them!!
Marquita did a very good job with this one in making it a great story line as well as mixing lots of romance and personal struggles in with it. I really enjoyed this short read!!

Promises, Blackmail, and Revenge...the perfect combination for seduction.
Andrew Montgomery has everything money can afford him, except time. His father is ready to give up the helm of Montgomery Industry-something Andrew has been groomed for since birth. Only, his father won't allow him to take control until he satisfies one demand. Andrew must marry and stay married for five years, or the company will be sold off for charity, one share at a time.
Resort hotel maid, Hannah Miller never dreamed that the boy she spent every summer with until she was seventeen would grow up to become ruthless billionaire Andrew Montgomery. Or that he would call in the silly IOU she'd given him for saving her from a dangerous riptide when she was thirteen years old.
But, nothing can prepare Hannah for what Drew demands as repayment. The sexy man not only intends to marry her, but to share their marriage bed as well. In every sense of the word.
