Reasons why I needed to get away from that cold-hearted billionaire:Reason #1: He was unbelievably uptight. Reason #2: He’d already broken my heart once. Reason #3: He was my brother’s best friend.Reason #4: He was now my new boss. And most importantly…Reason #5: He was arguably the most hated man in the city.The best thing about him was his adorable little daughter. Well, that and his perfect … city.
The best thing about him was his adorable little daughter.
Well, that and his perfect basketball body.
And his chiseled jaw.
His eyes weren’t so bad either.
DAMMIT.
You get the point. The devil had me under his spell.
It was his office and his rules.
Lucky for me, I had a few rules of my own.
Rule #1: Never to fall in love with him again.

Zander hated that he was having to go to a nightclub. He hated the noise and all the drunkenness. But, he’d do it to celebrate his best friend’s birthday even though he wasn’t a drinker. That is until he saw his friend’s sister – his ex-girlfriend. Good time to get drunk. Did he just offer her a job?
This book had me laughing. Zander’s restrictions and rules for his employees were hilarious. Love Danielle and Zander’s story. I couldn’t put the book down and read in a day. Highly recommend.
This was a good well written story and the characters were entertaining and charming with some sizzling hot chemistry between them

Zander and Dani used to date before Zander graduated and went off to college things ended badly and they hadn’t seen or spoke to each other until they met again at the bar. Things got crazy and by the end of the night some heat was regenerated back into Zander’s life via Dani.

So he starts Dani at the bottom as his driver which she is stunned over but rolls with it anyways. Pretty soon Dani is causing some noticeable changes from Zander at the office and at home with his daughter. Its not long before she has lost her heart to him again.

This is a great story and once I started it I couldn’t put it down. The chemistry between Zander and Dani is off the charts hot. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend it to any book lover.

Our heroine gets a job working for her former lover. Will then be able to maintain a professional relationship?
Of course not! This is a second change lovers romance story, so things are going to cross the line pretty darn quick! Which is just fine with us, because the result is a sexy, highly charged and fun read. Ms Brooks has a talent for crafting fun contemporary romance stories and this one is no exception. That is not to say that the blooming relationship is trouble free, but once again our couple works through their issues and deliver a delightful HEA. If as they say, it is all about the journey, than this one delivers in spades.
Highly recommended.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Danielle and Zander dated in high school. He went off to college while she had 2 more years left. Dani heard him telling the guidance counselor that he wanted to go away and she broke up with him so he would not break up with her. Now she is back in NYC and they meet up at her brothers birthday party.
Zander is not a drinker and in his drunken state he offers her a position in his company.
The book follows up with second chance at returning to their high school love. Good story but a little predictable and no real issues except for their fear at too much time having past.

From young love, to separation then an unlikely job at his company.
Lance and Danielle fell in love at such a very young age. Life takes them in separate directions but neither forgetting their first love.
Lance worked hard to build up a company from the ground up. As an adult, he has a daughter to take care of because his ex-wife is incapable of staying out of legal trouble. He lives for his baby girl but rules his company with an iron hand. His company has it’s own story. His mother helps in taking care of her grandchild. She is a character to admire and love. She doesn’t let Lance get away with things.
Danielle’s brother Scott still lives in New York where they grew up. He is turning thirty years old and throws himself a party and invites his best friend Lance to it. Danielle just graduated from Berkeley with her Master’s degree. She’s moving back to New York to try and find a job. Scott has her show up at his party and she sees Lance for the first time since they broke up.
Now the good times start between Lance and Danielle. Yes, they end up drinking too much and doing some dancing and Scott gets her a job at Lance’s company. They each go back to their own homes and don’t remember exactly what all happened the next day. Danielle is excited she has a job thinking she’ll be doing what her degree is in. She is going to get a wake up call through out the book.
Lance is like a dictator at his company. You can’t help but feel sorry for his employees but also laugh and find it interesting at the things that go on with them.
Evie, Lance’s mother is such a character in her own right along with his sweet little girl Alyssa.
This story is a great second chance romance but it’s not an easy one for the characters. Lance is committed in never letting Danielle go but she is have trouble putting herself into it completely.
Loved this book. The characters grab you into their story and you feel the emotions they experience.
Definitely recommend. Grab this book.

I received this book as a gift to read and I would like to give my honest opinion of what I discovered.
I really enjoyed this book, to see two people who had made mistakes in their youth to come back and own up to their own failures in each others life. The transformation of Zander was short of miraculous however but I think it was his way of controlling himself he was helping others. Instead he was just creating that much more stress in his life.
When Dani and he began to talk of their past and what she had over heard him tell their High School counselor he and she both knew the mistakes they had made. Even then though there were still some doubts in Dani’s minds about Zander’s love for her. How will they ever be able to forge forward until she finds out the really truth about Zander’s health craze.
Excellent book or I wouldn’t have given it a five star rating. I recommend reading this one for sure.
Zander attends a birthday party for his friend, Scott, out of guilt. He is emotionally ruffled when his ex, Scott’s sister Danielle, turns out for the same event. After drinking too much, he tells Scott that he will give Dani a job in his company. Zander is very persnickety about his rules for his employees and his life. Will Dani drive him crazy, or toward his HEA?
Summer Brooks has written a clever and entertaining book, which I recommend.

This romance between zander and dani was different in the sense that both were responsible for their break up but they each blamed the other.After a decade apart their world’s crash together and zander becomes her boss. He goes out of his way to make her life difficult and at times you wonder if either can get past the hate for the other. Great read
There were so many rules why she should not be with him and now he is her boss. There is only two problems, his daughter and his looks. Will she fall back under his spell? See if she will

Dani comes back to New York after college, looking for a job. At Scott’s Birthday Party everyone is drunk and Zander tells Scott that he will hire his sister. Boy does sparks fly at the party, but what happens the next day after? Will Zander really hire her? Will Dani be able to put up with Zander’s attitude at work? What will happen?

A well written hilarious second chance romance that will have you addicted from page one. This funnny drama with its emotional rollercoaster, twists and turns, nailbiting suspense and explosive sizzling hot chemistry will make you estatic you clicked for this awesome love story. Dani and Zander, her brother’s best friend, were high school sweethearts. When she overheard he had no issues to go to college anywhere she ghosted him with a broken heart. Thinking she’d dump him first, he leaves and they haven’t seen each other for 10 years. When at her brothers 30th bday party he ends up hiring her as his driver even though she has a marketing masters degree. A captivating engaging journey as they come to HEA, with wonderful realistic secondary characters and employees who are like soliders sneaking things around his strictness. A must read.

Zander and Dani were in love in high school. Zander is 2 years older and when Dani heard him tell his counselor that he would go anywhere to college that Dani was of no importance. Dani left without a word. It’s 6 years later and Dani moved back home. Her first night home she runs into Zander. I loved this book. Zander who comes across as stuck up and is hated by all his employees can’t help but remember how much he loves Dani. The chemistry is hot and the way they interact with each other will have you laughing at times. I recommend this book.

I am seriously in-love with this couple!!
As Dani was growing up she would tag along with her brother Scott and his best friend Zander. The older Dani got the more pull she felt towards Zander and once they started dating she fell hard for him until he left after graduation.
Fast forward years later, while at Scott’s birthday party one night in NYC, Zan sees the one person he has tried so hard to forget about over the years but has been unsuccessful at it. Dani is just as beautiful as ever, can Zander resist the pull he has toward her?? Will he be able to let his guard down and take a risk at possibly being hurt again??

ONE INCREDIBLY SWEET READ!!!
Ohmygosh! I love this exciting, pulse racing, heart pounding, soul searin, bring you to your knees, page turning masterpiece that connects with the reader on whole new level. Summer isn’t playing around, pulling any punches or taking any prisoners with this heart melting tale that captivates from the start. All the twists and turns abound with all the drama, suspense, nailbiting, nerve racking rollercoaster ride thats emotional and on point. The past comes back to haunt the two main characters who have an off the charts, highly addictive, explosive chemistry that flows through this entire tale. Their personalities are so realistic and believable it really pulls this little treasure together beautifully. The scenes are so graphically detailed and descriptive you have no trouble picturing it in your mind’s eye. Ii fell in love with this story from the get go and I would totally recommend this bad boy to anyone who loves a fantastic romance. Summer did a phenomenal job bringing this read to life flawlessly. Awesome job Summer, thanks for sharing.
Summer Brooks wrote another story that was a highly enjoyable second chances romance. After graduating from college in California with a master’s degree in management and marketing, Dani moved in with her brother Scott in New York city. Scott is celebrating his 30th birthday at a club which his friend Zander is joining, when he arrives he meets Dani again his ex-girlfriend in high school. During the night of drinking he hires her to work at his company. Dani shows up to work but Zander hovers should he employ her or not because his old feelings for her emerge and disrupts his orderly life. Do Dani and Zander forget the hurts of the past and start again? Loved Dani the snarky women and Zander the organized CEO and the supporting characters, Alyssa (Zander’s child), Scott (Dani’s brother) and the rest in this quirky, romantic story. I volunteer to read and review this ARC.
