LaurenGoing back to work was supposed to be a painless transition, but when my new boss turns out to be an arrogant, cocky jerk, he quickly turns my professional life into a world of torture. Okay, fine, calling him an asshat before knowing he was my boss wasn’t my finest moment. Hating him should be easy. I just never counted on him being so gorgeous or charming when he’s not annoying me.Austin… annoying me.
Austin
I expected my new assistant to be professional and punctual, but all I’m getting are dirty looks and rude comments. I should fire the little hellion, but instead all I can think about is bending her over my desk and breaking every rule I’ve ever made for myself.
One look. One touch. One night. If we break the rules, our lives will never be the same again.
Good thing rules were made to be broken. And besides, it feels so good to Tempt the Boss.

This book has snark, sass, and a whole lot of naughty…
Naughty pranks
Naughty sisters
Naughty husband
Naughty friends
Some good, some bad but what do you expect when you Tempt The Boss…
I had an absolute blast reading this book. It’s funny and has some seriously impressive pranks. I love the crazy sister and look forward to reading (I hope it’s in the works) all about the yoga instructor, vegan nut that she is. With some off the wall characters, it’s impossible not to have fun reading this book.
Fun watching karma in action too! I have to say my insecure stay at home mom self was crying in the first chapter. I was also considering googling making voodoo dolls but then I remembered karma. Boy, did she come back around!
Okay, I fell in love with the assh@t, learned some new revenge techniques, and am now wondering why Cooper and Parker are on my TBR still. Apparently, I will need to rectify that situation.
Also a warning, DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES LET IT GET TO THE DONKEY KONG LEVEL. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

3.5 Tempting Stars
Lauren Harrison goes from housewife to single mom in the most unexpected way. Entering the job market as a temp has her nervous but meeting her new boss, the one she’s had a fender bender with prior to getting to that new job, throws her for a loop. Austin Mackenzie seems like your rich, typical playboy. He is sexy and brooding but there’s more to him than that. Their banter is hilarious. The attraction grows. Their love/hate relationship flows off the pages. The antics are to die for. I found myself smiling and laughing out loud while reading. Fun secondary characters and cameos help to make it a great romance told in dual POV.
Wow!!!! This is hands down the funniest book I’ve read this year. Natasha Madison is literally a comedic genius. This book is laugh out load, spit your drink out and grab your stomach hilarious. Her writing just keeps getting better and better. First of all the cover is gorgeous. Second the chemistry and humor between Lauren and Austin coupled with their sexy steamy romance is perfection. I loved how she created the back and forth banter between these two meanwhile sexual tension is building and building so when these two finally get together….it is explosive!!!! Natasha never disappoints when it comes to writing hot as hell sex scenes. Another good thing about Natasha is she always makes a point to write such strong and positive female characters. Kudos on writing another amazing book and this is a definite five star must read.
Tempt The Boss is one of those laugh out loud kind of stories that will leave readers rolling on the floor laughing their a** off from beginning to end! Seriously this story had me laughing so freaking hard that I had tears streaming down my face from this hilariously entertaining romantic comedy. Natasha Madison is a brilliant and talented author that sure knows how to capture a readers attention and keep them entertained until the very last page.
Lauren was an extremely strong women whose life comes crashing down when she discovers that her high school sweetheart turned husband has been unfaithful to her. Suddenly she is a single mother raising her two children and rejoining the workforce after being a stay-at-home mom for many years. The last thing she is expecting is Austin, her new boss and the man she had a love-hate relationship with. When readers initially meet him I have to say that he is a real jerk and I wasn’t sure if he’d be redeemed in my eyes, but I have to say that I found myself falling in love with his character before abruptly having the rug pulled out from under me… Eventually, he returns to my good graces and captures my heart once again!
I’ve got to say that I felt that this story was hands down one of my favorite reads and I was extremely fortunate to have discovered this author in 2017! If you are looking for a enemies to lovers romance then you NEED to get your hands on a copy of Tempt The Boss today!
Again, Natasha Madison has done it again.
I have been completely blown away and loved every minute of it.
Every page, word, sentence, paragraph, chapter…..I LOVED THIS NOVEL!!
We meet Lauren.
A single Mum to two beautiful kids Rachel and Gabe.
Her ex Jake is in their life, but he broke Lauren in the worst possible way.
But she refuses to suffer anymore.
Her kids depend on her, so it’s time for Rachel step up.
That means getting a job.
Sounds easy right?
Well it’s not when her boss is Austin.
Meet Austin.
Strong, independent, all things sinfully delicious.
He’s been looking for a PA and can’t seem to find one that suits his needs.
Temp after temp, they come, they go.
He needs a great PA who will quite frankly jump when he asks them too.
And he has rules.
No personal relationships with co-workers.
It’s a rule he lives by.
But that is until Lauren walks in.
Austin and Laurens world are going to be tilted on their axis.
Their worlds will never be the same.
Rules will be broken.
This is their story.
Guys WTF….I have no idea how to review perfection.
This novel had me from the very beginning. I seriously couldn’t put it down.
This had everything, and I mean everything and so much more.
Laugh….Omfg I haven’t laughed my butt off in a novel like I did with this one. The banter between all of the characters was off the charts hilarious.
The emotion…Boy there were moments where I found my tears spilling because I was just so completely moved.
And what I found so very rare with this is that you often find yourself falling for the main characters in most novels, with Lauren and Austin being those, but I fell in love with each and every single one of characters in Tempt The Boss. Kaleigh, Noah, John, Rachel, Gabe, Cooper, Matthew….These guys all very unique, but bought so much to the story.
A heartwarming, breathtaking, sinfully delicious read that I seriously cannot recommend high enough.
Natasha Madison just writes perfection at the highest of levels and shouldn’t be missed.
5 amazingly brilliant stars.
This was a super funny and very sexy read. I loved it and definitely recommend the book. I look forward to reading more books from this author.
This book should come with a warning label: This book will cause fits of laughter, drink with caution. Beware of getting dirty looks from who ever you share a bed with, from waking then up giggling so loud.
I have been a supporter, fan, since the beginning with Natasha Madison, I think this chick is gold and this is her first book that is a Rom-Com, I am always so amazed of her stories , she is talented and this is a new genre for her and she Aced it. I laughed my butt off, I woke my husband and daughter laughing so much, then I felt bad and had to go sit in the living room at 2:00 in the morning, in the dark, all alone because not finishing, was not an option.
Everyone is going to love this story it’s Prank Wars at its finest, and we have all had that one person that you wanted to lax up their drink and Lauren straight up jacked up Austin her new boss.
Lauren is a recently divorced, Mom to 2 kiddos, Rachel and Gabe, she is getting back in the work force after her husband cheated on her and left her for said floozy. Her new Boss is difficult hes been through 10 P.A.’s in less than a month, He’s Cocky, and Hot and Infuriating, and Sex in a Suit. Lauren is excellent at her job , but can only take so much so she quits. Austin knows he has messed up cause he can’t quit thinking about Lauren.
The sexual chemistry between these two was scorching, and not only that but their relationship was not just about getting it on, they took time to be with her kids, and her family. This book was the total package for me, and couldn’t get enough, and can’t wait for more.
This is my first book by Natasha Madison and it will not be my last. This is the funniest book I have read this year. I had those moments when my fiance’ kept looking at me like, ” What the hell are you laughing at.” I was laughing so loud, I had tears streaming down my face. The pranks were epic, especially the itching powder. Lauren is a divorced mom, that was betrayed by her ex husband, who now is in the workforce because she is not the homemaker any more. She is the woman who will catch your shit on fire if you hurt her. She reminds me of that song by Carrie Underwood, Before he cheats. So one of her friends asks her to be a temp as his assistant. On her first day of work, she gets rear ended by an asshole driver who blames her because he thinks she is drunk. So she ends up late to work, and just as she goes to meet her new boss, she walks into the asshole’s office, who rear ended her. That asshole, is Austin, who lives and breathes work, who doesn’t mix business with pleasure. The asshole who is insanely attracted to her. What starts off with some serious pranks, actually hilarious pranks, turns into extreme sexual tension. When neither can handle the heat any more, they finally give in, and it is explosive. Can Austin handle mixing business with pleasure, and what happen’s when Lauren’s ex comes back in the picture? I loved, loved, loved the other characters, they were funny too, I hope we see books with their stories. I also loved how the author did NOT drag out the plot. Most times authors tend to do that, which is very annoying, and not necessary. But,Natasha you now have a new reader, and I can’t wait for more stories.
Loved that this was a stand alone novel! Great Book!
Some parts I laughed out loud. The writing was so witty loved the book gave bought 3 other books by her loved them all
Boring
Lauren is finally going back to the work place after her divorce. Her new boss Austin is a complete jerk. Lauren and Austin are one of my FAVORITE book couples. Their banter and chemistry was on the money. I loved how Lauren didn’t take his crap. I loved how Austin stepped up to the plate when needed. These two will definitely have a place in your heart once you are finished.
So going in I just knew how this book was going to be and boy was I wrong!! This book was laugh out loud hilarious!!!!! I found myself bursting out laughing so many times while reading which is rare for me. This was the first romantic comedy that I’ve read in a long time that actually delivered. I’ve read two other books by this author but they were heavier reads. It’s nice when an author can switch it up and deliver on both ends of the spectrum. This book had the perfect amount of comedy, romance and drama. What I loved was that there wasn’t any over the top drama. This was just the perfect blend and the story flowed effortlessly!
Had me in stitches! Loved it!!!!!
My first read of Natasha, I love these kinds of read when the guy is an asshat and the girl doesn’t put up with his shit. The Boss and the PA, the witty banter between the two and the pranks had me laughing.
Lauren and her sister Kaleigh who is a yoga, vegan smart ass, their banter are typically of sisters. Kaleigh to her niece.
‘It’s not doggie style, it’s downward facing dog, doggie style is for when you’re older.
Lauren to Kaleigh
‘ look what the slut dragged in’
Great interaction with the two.
The hilarious witty banter continues between Austin and Noah typically locker room talk.
I loved it, I had a great day reading this.
I recently discovered Natasha Madison through a friend’s recommendation. The first time I experienced one of Natasha’s worlds, it was dark and gritty and oh so sexy but beautifully written. Dark and gritty is not usually my thing, I always prefer something lighter and more fun, something that allows me to escape from the real world and just close my eyes and fall into a story. As such you can understand how excited I was when Natasha first announced that she had a Romantic-Comedy releasing.
Temp the Boss did NOT disappoint. This book is everything I love in Romantic-Comedy and so much more! It’s fun, humorous, light, engaging, smart and sassy… and it’s oh so sexy and downright swoon-worthy! It is literally laugh-out-loud funny… from the moment I first met Lauren and Austin I knew we were in for some entertaining fireworks. When I tell you that Lauren and Austin HATE each other from the moment they meet, I am not exaggerating. Actually, is there an emotion stronger than hate and its lust… they both hate and lust each other.
You may be thinking, another friends-to-enemies story? How can it be any different than what I have read before? The romance market is saturated with these types of stories… I however, will tell you that Natasha’s approach is wonderfully well written, her characters and plot are fully developed and I laughed so hard I cried! This book is by far the funniest book I have EVER read!
This is one of those stories where I was constantly saying out loud “I can relate”. If you’ve ever worked for a man in a position in control of stressful work conditions. Whether it’s a CEO, Director or Primary Business Owner, they all have a similar personality trait – trying at times to work for.
Lauren has her work cut out with Austin. However, instead of grin and bare it , Lauren actually gets to do what all of us have secretly dreamt of doing. Oh, and don’t worry about Austin. He can give just as good. However, when they both give into the pull they have formed that’s not all work related, OH BABY HOT!
This was a funny, enjoyable office workplace romance. Definitely one of my favorite tropes in rom-com with enemies to lovers. If you love the shenanigans that any HR person would cringe, this story is definitely for you. 4.5 out of 5 stars.
