This is a book that may not be, for everyone, in the sense it has things that can, trigger bad memories. It deals with boyfriend and ex-boyfriend abuse, and the after-effects not just on the person beaten, but the family members.
This story begins with, Laural getting a phone call from the hospital. Explaining to her that her sister, Lacey has been brought in and is unconscious. Laural needs to arrive, as soon as, possible. She makes a plane reservation, packs, calls an Uber, and she decides to call work once she knows what she is dealing with. Frankly, she hates work so, ‘they can wait,’ she thinks.
The thing is when she arrives, it turns out her sister has been brutalized and dumped at the ER. The trauma she is dealing with is life-threatening, but she can’t Call her parents not yet. Where’s her boyfriend? Why isn’t he there? Questions. Only questions. No answers, not even the cops have answers. But, when she asked for her sister’s belongings and finding her phone. She calls her boss.
When he shows at the hospital, Laural wonders if, Lacey was naive enough to have an office affair, with her boss that he said, he would be right down. When he arrives, she’s asleep, and startles, Laurel.
Hudson right away introduces himself. He can tell, Laurel is leery, of him by her questions, and non-questions. He assures her he didn’t do it, and knows nothing about any boyfriend. She finds that hard to believe.
Hudson explains he has very set rules. His employees are just that, not his friends. He keeps his two lives, very separate. Although he cares about all his employees, he just doesn’t pry into their private lives. But, he would ask around. Both Laurel and Hudson, can’t get each other, off the other’s mind. Hudson is in no way going to allow any kind of emotion to surface whatsoever. Nope, not happen.
You see, he has been out of, the Navy over five years and shown pretty much no emotions since getting in his head he needed to make something of himself after a traumatic discharge and recovery. So, now that he needs a personal assistant Laurel applies for the job. This is when the funny fireworks start. In the name of finding peace for Hudson.
The is an emotional book. It is a funny book. It is a heart-wrenching book and a loving book of recovery of the mind, body, and spirit. It surprised me in a very good way.
This book is amazing. I got all in my feelings. A damaged man and a outspoken woman. Their chemistry is off the charts.
Ashley kept me on my toes with Simply Complicated. The emotions are intense as well as unsure.
This is an interesting and entertaining story with strong well developed characters with an insta love and hot chemistry. The author does a great job bringing tons of drama and suspense as well as the love. She throws in twists and turns and keeps you reading to the end. It’s well written,moves fluidly and I enjoyed reading.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book. All opinions in this review are my own and freely given.
Hudson didn’t stand a chance with all those women conspiring against him!! And his own mother as the ringleader?! Over with…lol. In this case, mama knows best and she only wants Laurel to get him to open up…but he didn’t go down without fight…literally. Nothing like a protective alpha male!! They earned their happy ending…battle scars and all.
