There’s a hot new hire.
Too bad she’s Donavan’s ex.
Oh, and there’s one other problem—they hate each other.
The last thing he expected to see when he walked into the office was Paisley Williams.
She was the only person to graduate ahead of him at Columbia. The one woman who could give it back better than he could dish it out.
She was also the biggest regret of his life. What he did to her … regret of his life. What he did to her was unforgivable.
Now, she’s back in Chicago, working at his firm.
When old feelings interfere, stakes get raised, and secrets are revealed…
Will they have a shot at making it the second time around? Or are they more doomed than the first?

4.5 stars
I wasn’t a huge fan of Donovan’s before reading this. The youngest Collins brother is a grumpy guy and I wasn’t quite sure what to make of him to start with. He’s good at what he does, he’s ruthless when it comes to his work and he comes across as both confident and arrogant but there’s another side to him and that side had me falling for him. There’s a reason why he’s like he is, I didn’t always agree with his attitude (because it stinks sometimes) but I definitely understood why he’d feel the way he does.
Paisley was crushed by Donovan’s actions seven years ago. Now she’s a successful attorney in her own right and she’s going after a job at Donovan’s company. She’s never got over him, he’s never gotten over her, the chemistry and pull is just as strong as it always was but they’re different people now and things are going to get interesting.
I really enjoyed this book. I loved Paisley and Donovan’s chemistry and watching them trying to figure out their relationship. This is another great book from these two authors and if you haven’t already I highly recommend reading the other books in this series.
Arrogant Playboy Is a classic second chance romance that has great characters, entertaining moments but in the end a swoon worthy happily ever after!
Donovan was young and so caught up in his goals that he ended up throwing away the best woman that ever came into his life. Now, Paisley is back and the old feelings and chemistry are still there but will she forgive him for throwing away what they had? But can he forgive her for her mistakes? These two have the chemistry and have a chance at a great future, they just keep messing it up.
I hope you take a chance on Donovan and Paisley’s story! You won’t be disappointed!
From the very beginning of book one, we have been given glimpses of Donovan Collins and the impression you get ain’t good. Driven, Ruthless, Arrogant , yep Donovan is all of those, but like all the Collins brothers ,you know that there is more to him than meets the eye.
When Paisley crashes back into Donovan’s life, the unfinished business between them burns through the pages and each give as good as each other. Both have issues, both to stubborn to give in. But when the tension cracks , the result is BOOM
Sloane & Alex really are a writing partnership worth reading, and this latest instalment should not be missed
This is the 4th book in the Cocky Suits Chicago series and, well, wow, these two guys know how to write a alpha series! This book is intense, Donovan and Paisley know how to get on each others nerves and what buttons to push to get the other going, what a tug of war! Donovan is the youngest Collins brother, the baby and all his life he’s felt he has something to prove, to keep up with his brothers, when his oldest brother, Decker merged the firm into a bigger group the chip on his shoulder became bigger because the merger blindsided all the younger brothers. Besides feeling left out at work he comes face to face with the one that got away-well, the one he pushed away and after seven years they still had the hot chemistry. Paisley was coming home to Chicago to take care of her family, and she wanted to work with the best so she got a job at Donovan’s firm. Since Donovan never brought Paisley around to meet his family while they were in a relationship in law school his family had no idea they just hired a thorn in his side, not that would have made a difference. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll be aggravated at Donovan’s attitude, you’ll need to cool off from their chemistry and you’ll not want to put this book down! Be ready for twists, surprises and heat, oh and tempers too. What a great read!
What a great story.. I was hooked from the beginning. This story had it all.. I was on edge the entire time and at one point I was in tears. Donavan and Paisley are 2 of a kind. The met in Law school and dated all the way through it. The Donavan just ghosted her. 7 yrs pass and Donavan is on his game as a hot shot criminal law layer for one of the biggest firms in the world.
Paisley is a partner of another big law firm In New York. But she isn’t happy and her family need her more then ever. She moves back home to Chicago and starts working at Donavans law firm. Things with them a heated they didnt like each other very much, but couldnt help their feelings.
Donavan tells Paisley that he wants to take her out so that they could talk but Paisley wadnt having any of it, but Donavan had other plans and he doesnt take no for an answer. She caves and then that’s when they start to see one another. This is an excellent story and I highly recommend it.. It is part of a series but can be read as a stand alone. Sloane and Alex did an amazing job writing this book and i think it’s more exciting then FSOG.
We’re back in Chicago with ‘The Hunter Group’ and the last of the four Collins brothers, Donovan.
We’ve met Donovan before as the surly, antagonistic and confrontational brother and I’ve got to say, that some of those feelings are entirely justified.
Even if you haven’t met Donovan before and this is your first foray into the Chicago Suits series, it can be fully enjoyed as a standalone, but you’ll definitely want to go back and read the others!
The story of Donavan and Paisley is as hot as you’d expect from the pens of Howell and Wolf but you certainly wouldn’t expect to wipe tears from your eyes, thus bringing their writing partnership to a whole new level. I can’t wait to see what their collaboration produces next.
Well done gents, you’ve certainly outdone yourselves!
Absolutely loved Donavan and Paisley!! I binged all of Alex and Sloan’s series as soon as I found them and they just keep getting better! This book will have you all up in your feelings and then some in every direction. Donavan is the broody and arrogant younger brother and Paisley has every bit of smarts and sass needed to go toe to toe with him! I’m in love with this series! I can’t wait to read the next one!
This is my favorite book in this series! Donovan Collins is not arrogant…he is an a**hole. We find out throughout the book why he is the way he is…..so not prepared!! Paisley and Donovan have lots of history and issues to work through but their chemistry is undeniable and once they get together it is some of the hottest scenes I have ever read! Get a fan and some tissues, you will not want to put this book down!

The best Collins brother was saved for last! A second chance romance between Donavan and his law school girlfriend Paisley. They have a rocky history and when she walks into Donavan’s law firm for a job, all their old feelings return.
Donavan is the baby of the Collins brothers and has always felt like he never measured up to his older brothers. He’s a stubborn and sexy jerk and Paisley is the only woman to have ever owned his heart. She’s a tough as nails lawyer who is strong willed. Their story is full of love, heat and heartbreak. One chapter near the end had me in tears as Donavan has a heartbreaking encounter with his family.
I loved Donavan and Paisley. They were definitely made for each other. This book really brought out all the feels.
Arrogant Playboy? How about hot, dirty, powerful dominant attorney that is just lost in the world? Arrogant Playboy by Sloane Howell and Alex Wolf is not a short story but quite a lengthy book but that is so necessary to get the complete picture of the story line and characters. Donovan is a lovable character but at the same time you just want to smack him and tell him to grow up. With the amount of Collins brothers, it is a little hard to keep track of them and the women in their lives but about halfway through the book it because clearer and the reader can see who belongs to whom. I really liked some of the characters more than others, but they have their own books that I will be reading. Each of the Cocky Suits books are stand-alone reads and can be read in any order but starting with book one would help to keep all them boys straight. I was surprised the steamy scenes in this book didn’t melt my kindle. 5-stars for Arrogant Playboy
A dirty talking, chip on his shoulder attorney that demands and has earned respect in the courtroom. Donovan Collins has always felt he needed to live up to his three older brothers and just once be better. Their law firm is known nationwide and has billion-dollar clients and Donovan is over the criminal division department and new as a managerial partner. Donovan never expected to see Paisley Williams again and then one day she is standing in his firm’s office for an interview. Paisley and Donovan were the power couple in law school and were going to rule Manhattan, till Donovan threw it all away. Now with Paisley in Chicago and back on Donovan’s home turf he feels he has the upper hand and he’s going to get back everything he lost seven years ago. Paisley never forgave Donovan for hurting her and her family, but she can’t deny those feelings that she buried deep down inside. Slowly Donovan begins to chip away at the walls that Paisley has built around he heart, but Paisley has a few tricks up her sleeves that might keep the Arrogant Playboy at bay.
Collins don’t cry, they don’t apologize, and it’s all about family. Donavan has always felt like the outcast with everyone except his college sweetheart, Paisley. Until he left her. He has to make things right with her and his family, even though it’s his family that needs to. Second chance romance and more. Groveling Donavan at his best outside the courtroom.
Broody Collins (Donavan)and Paisley are freaking fabulous! Wasn’t sure if I wanted to kiss him or kick him! This book has all the heat with a ton of feels !!! Another amazing book by these guys!!!!! Can’t wait for the next !!!
Is it strange to love someone as much as you hate them?? Through out the series Donavan was someone that we knew had some issues and we finally have them cleared in this book. I’m not gonna lie and say I loved him from the get go – he was an ass from the beginning. If he was real I would have slapped him silly and never look back…but having said that after he got back together with Paisley he started to show there’s more than meets the eye and I fell for him. And I fell hard. As for Paisley; she’s my spirit animal. I loved her and her take no crap personality. She was feisty and determent to do what it takes when the ones she loves were in trouble.
As things heat up you cant help but to fall in love with them both and cheer for them to FINALLY get to the HEA they only dreamt about.
Now for the closing argument; every single book in this series was fantastic. To be honest I’m not sure who is my favourite but I’m so happy to see there will be more books and I for one am so ready for it. Bring it on

Donavan and Paisley were college sweethearts until something happens and they break up and hate each other … Now Paisley is working for Donavans firm and I wont give any spoilers but the things that happened when they see each other again it will turn out they are still in love…… Another awesome book with a lot of steam in it cant wait for the next one ……
This is a second chance office romance. Paisley and Donavan have a complicated history made worse by heartache and distrust. They love to hate each other. Donavan is sexy…a dominant alpha in his work and relationships but totally insecure about his place within his family. Paisley is a strong independent woman, whose biggest weakness is Donavan’s alpha ways. Their chemistry is off the charts as they work through their issues to get to their HEA.
This is an enjoyable read. Advanced copy provided by the authors in exchange for an honest review.
Arrogant Playboy by Alex Wolf and Sloane Howell is the definition of perfect office romance. Sexual and emotional tension that needs to be cut with a diamond knife. Incredibly smart and sharp writing that kept the witty, steamy and romantic vibe till the very end. And amazing characters who will stay with me forever.
Donavan Collins and Paisley Williams have a long history going back to their law school days. They were soul mates. They were the “it” person for each other. But Donavan did something to hurt her beyond repair during a very difficult time in her life. Now she is back to work for his farm leaving his biggest competitors. But why? Does Paiey really hate Donavan like she shows? Is Donavan really the arrogant brute everyone makes him to be?
Donavan is a mass of contradictions. He comes across as the infuriating rude and arrogant alpha man. But he has a chip in size of Antarctica on his shoulder. And he is nursing years of resentment and anger about his brothers and father that only makes him act as an insufferable, hot tempered and impulsive guy. He is the best in their farm but he is always trying to prove himself and getting himself in unfortunate circumstances. My heart is breaking for this bad boy with a golden heart. Same goes for Paisley. She is hurt, insecure and still not over Donavan. But this super smart, adorably smart and outright gorgeous woman is willing to do anything for her family. Including putting her career and heart in line of fire. But the winner is the chemistry between them. You really need to stock tissues, wine and other “reinforcements”. Their hate transforms into some of the most dirty, kinky, filthy and mouthwatering pantymelting hot scenes ever. They have some beautiful connection that is something extraordinary and epic. She completes him like he helps her to be happy and cherished. The writers put angst and pain in right places to make this story unputdownable.
Arrogant Play by Sloane Howell and Alex Wolf was an entertaining and heartaching romance. The writing is really brilliant! One of the best office romance I have ever read.

I loved Donavan even though he was a misunderstood jerk. I loved this book. I love this series. I love these two authors writing together. If you haven’t read this series yet, it’s a MUST.
I love second chance love stories and Arrogant Playboy is one of the best. Donavan and Paisley were a couple during law school but it ended very badly when Donavan’s pride was hurt and he ghosted Paisley and her family after her mother died. Now they can’t stand the sight of each. When Paisley is hired at Donavan’s firm, the sparks fly.
Donavan has been the grumpy Collins brother that is quick to anger. He’s always been sarcastic and arrogant in the previous books and I was looking forward to seeing what made him that way. All his life, he has kept his feelings inside and he never truly felt himself until he met Paisley. When they broke up, he became bitter and buried himself in work. He has never stopped loving Paisley and once he decides he wants her back, he’s relentless. I loved watching him fight for her and it was heartbreaking when he thinks he has been betrayed.
Paisley was a strong, independent woman who also buried herself in work once her relationship with Donavan ended. No one has compared to him, but she thinks she is over him. She moved back to Chicago to take care of her family and she would go to any lengths to make sure they are cared for. Paisley realizes what she needs to be happy but will it be too late?
Donavan and Paisley were electric together. Their chemistry was on fire and their love for each other jumped off the page. I loved watching them overcome their obstacles. Their snarky banter, hot love scenes, and tender words were everything.
I have loved all the Collins brothers’ books and this one is no exception. I would highly recommend it if you are looking for a steamy second chance romance with heartbreaking angst and an unconditional love.
I received an ARC for an honest review.
The ultimate sexy second chance romance!
I have been anxiously awaiting Donavan’s book and it did not let me down!
Donavan is the baby brother of the Collins family and you can’t help but ache for him to be happy. You know deep down he’s misunderstood and the reason he acts the way he does is coming from somewhere that you NEED to know about.
Paisley is his tough as nails ex-girlfriend from law school. As far as she knew, they were going to run the world…until they didn’t. And now they’re about to cross paths again.
Donavan and Paisley’s history is full of hurt and bitterness, ruthlessness and selfishness, but under it all is an all encompassing love you can feel, they just need to find it.
This full length book has so many twists and turns, it left me reeling. I hated his brothers right along with him and yet, I still loved their ladies and the family camaraderie. I wanted to stand up and fight right alongside Donavan. This book hit me in the feels and it made me want to hug him and Paisley tight at the same time I wanted to knock their heads together.
There were some definite tissue moments that help bring this entire story into focus, and they were totally worth it.
