He’s a powerful billionaire CEO who built the family business into an empire. The money doesn’t matter to him, but the company is his life. And then his eccentric mother wills it all to her tiny dog.I’m Vicky, the dog whisperer. (Not really, but that’s what my elderly neighbor always says.) When she dies, she surprises everybody by leaving a corporation worth billions to her dog, Smuckers. With … to her dog, Smuckers. With me as his spokesperson.
Suddenly I go from running my Etsy store to sitting in an elegant Wall Street boardroom with Smuckers in my lap. And my neighbor’s son, Henry Locke, aka New York’s most eligible bachelor, glaring across the table at me.
Rumor has it Henry’s a business genius who’s as talented in the bedroom as he is in the boardroom. Sure, he’s gorgeous. Sex-in-a-seven-thousand dollar suit. But…
He’s arrogant and infuriating.
He refuses to listen to me when I insist I didn’t con his mother.
He thinks he can bully me, buy me off, control me, even seduce me.
Henry may have the women of Manhattan eating out of the palm of his hand, but I’m so over entitled rich guys who think they own the world.
No way will his wicked smile be charming ME out of my panties.
His wicked…devastating…impossible-to-resist smile.
Oh well, who needs panties anyway?
***A sexy enemies-to-lovers romantic comedy standalone!***

Fun book.
The plot was what I expected: two people meet under circumstances which make them enemies but end up falling in love. I like this type of romance (think Hepburn and Tracy in the movies). The writing was clever and the little mystery added a lot. But..100+ F-words made me give it a 3-star rating. Come on, they weren’t necessary and made me cringe each time I read the word.
Cute read. Predictable, but not too much so that you don’t want to read it.
Enjoyable read. I purchased next in series.
Great book.
Hard to find the story among all the F-bombs and explicit sex.

When a furry little maltese comes into Vicky’s life she has no idea that it is about to turn her carefully planned world upside down… what starts as a dog walking gig for her little sister turns into something far more extravagant and taxing! The Maltese’s owner, Bernadette, has fallen ill and makes Vicky promise that she will care for her precious pup after she passes, and Vicky reluctantly agrees, not realizing that Bernadette has a larger plan in place for her. Now she finds herself sitting around a boardroom table, with the precious pup in her lap, and Bernadette’s son zoned in on her, thinking she is after the family fortune and he is ready to fight her every step of the way. And Vicky just sits there wondering what in the world she has just gotten herself into…
The moment Henry waltz’s into his mother’s hospital room and sees the cooky woman telling her nonsense about her precious maltese he is madder than a hornet, of course she is praying on his ill mother, and after the family fortune that should rightfully be his… but little does he know she knows nothing about it! When he finds out his mother has left the fortune to her little dog, and the cooky woman who he thinks swindled her, he is out for blood…but winds up finding a whole lot more than he bargained for!!
Most Eligible Bastard is quite the little literary gem, between the pages of this one you will find many laughable moments, toe curling moments, and moments that will squeeze your heart! This was my first literary adventure with this author, and I have to say I am quite impressed with what she had to offer, her sexy little story was sweet and oh so naughty… just how I like my reads!! This one had a wide array of eccentric characters that kept me well entertained from start to finish, who knew a little maltese could be so entertaining!! Highly recommend this one, it will give you the feels, have you laughing throughout, and leave your heart happy!!
