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.

Tempt The Boss (Tempt Series Book 1)
by Natasha Madison 4 Stars
******** May Contain Some Spoilers ********
This is the first book that I’ve read written by Natasha. I must say I wasn’t disappointed. She wrote an incredible storyline that is easy and fun to read.
I read a small passage that was posted in a Facebook group. It was so funny I had to have this book. Lauren is our female main character. She is an amazing women (single mom). She is just starting a new job and her boss (Austin) is a total A**hat. The things that go on between them is absolutely hilarious. I was laughing out loud so much that I was getting funny looks. I couldn’t help it, so funny. I did cry when Austin said something to Lauren that was beyond humiliating. There are some very steamy scenes. In my opinion, it’s a HEA (Happy Ever After) ending.
•••••••• I highly recommend this book! ••••••••
To the moon and back is how much I loved this.
I was shocked that I haven’t read this book yet so I started yesterday finished it the next day. I couldn’t put it down, I was laughing so hard at the antics Austin and Lauren pulled on each other. They had the attraction and I kept waiting til the tension would hit its boiling point and omg did it. It was very steamy when they finally decided to be together. From enemies to lovers this was an absolute amazing read and the side characters had me laughing so hard. I felt so bad for Lauren early on because the stuff her ex out her through but she finds her strong side and independence real quick. I can’t wait for Noah’s book now.
Lauren and Austin … O.M.G! These two are truly something else!
Their banter and interactions are simply hilarious! Their pranks on each other made me giggle and laugh out loud the entire time. I must have really looked like a lunatic to those around me while reading, lol.
If you’re looking for an easy and entertaining read with a helping of sizzling-hot chemistry between the protagonists, you should read this book.
I have read all of Natasha Madison’s books and they just keep getting better and better, she has fast become a go to author for me. If you love rom-coms this is a must read, the banter between the characters is perfect and what can I say about the laugh out loud belly shaking moments except don’t read in bed unless you want to keep everyone awake around you.
Lauren is a recently divorced mum going back to the work place, she finds herself as a temporary PA for the seriously hot Austin who happens to be a cocky, arrogant jerk who has been through 10 PAs in as many weeks, what he doesn’t expect is for his new PA to say it as it is, she says what she is thinking and has no filter on her mouth. Austin has a moto that goes right out the window when Lauren walks into his office, he is married to his work and he doesn’t f*ck where he eats or so he thought!!!!
The chemistry between these two is sizzling, they push each other to the limits and from the very start it was always going to be a game of how far will you go. This book has it all, a sassy sarcastic heroine, a seriously hot boss,secondary characters that are as strong as the main characters and it’s hilarious and let’s be honest we all love a book that has you falling in love and laughing out loud.
This is a must read, great job Natasha Madison I’m looking forward to the next book.
Lauren and Austin start their working relationship off on the wrong foot. Both have some pent up frustrations that erupt into funny pranks played on each other. The banter between them kept me entertained and I found myself laughing out loud. Lauren’s sister is a riot and Austin’s friends kept me wanting to know more. This was my first Natasha Madison book and looking forward to checking out more.
Soooo funny! I love this series! Natasha Madison writs a great laugh aloud comedy!I really recommend this book
Where do I start other than Natasha Madison has this strange ability to write some of the hottest scenes and in the next sentence make me literally laugh out loud. Tempt the Boss is one of the many reasons as to why I love Madison and all her words.
Austin and Lauren are such a such, steamy couple to read. Lauren is coming off a divorce. One that was caused by her husband cheating on her. Austin is her boss and doesn’t believe in sleeping with his employees, even if they slept together before. It’s so much fun to watch Lauren bring him to his knees, literally. She does not take any shit from him.
Tempt the Boss is a sexy, sassy, fun read. It’s a book I can read over and over and it never gets old.
This book was truly one of the funniest books ive ever read. Loved it so much. I have since been on a mission to read everything by this author that I can get my hands on. LOVE THIS SERIES!!
This is the first time I’ve read this author. I really liked this book. It had me laughing so much. I loved all the practical jokes Austin and Lauren did to each other. Plus there banter back and forth was hilarious as well. Austin could definitely be an ass at times. And Lauren could definitely hold her own against him. Their chemistry was off the charts and their sexy times were hot af!! I loved the secondary characters as well, her sister was funny and Austin’s best friend Noah and John were hilarious especially at Austin’s expense. I look forward to Noah’s book next and more books by this author.
Natasha is a new to me Author
Where do I start? I loved everything about this book. I am honestly so glad I took a chance to read it
Austin is 100% wooable. I loved how he and Lauren fought how they felt for each other.
Just a wee bit OTT but I still enjoyed it…
Tempt The Boss was very entertaining and the kind of contemporary romance I find easy to sink into. An unhappy intro to the characters…because what’s the point of a romance story if the hero and heroine are blissfully happy without each other? Blistering chemistry that jumped off the pages and made me squirm. Romantic gestures that made me sigh and remember the good-old-days of courtship. Saying the wrong thing at the wrong time, seeing the repercussions and what needs to be said or happen to make things right again. A laugh out loud scene or two to brighten my day. And…the pièce de résistance…when they give in to their sexual frustrations and it’s HOT!!
I’m one of those horrible people who nervously laugh at others misfortunes and accidents. I don’t mean to, I feel bloody guilty when it happens but it just slips out. So, while I was laughing my head off at Austin’s misfortunes at the hands of Lauren’s pranks, I was completely horrified also. The poor bloke copped it big time. To be honest, I thought it was OTT and if it happened in real life, he probably had every right to report her to the police. But, in Romancelandia we laugh.
Austin is married to his work, he has never planned on finding his one because he doesn’t want a woman to hate his dedication to his job. Lauren has two children, is recently divorced and returning to the workforce after ten years at home with the kids. They are an unlikely couple at first, but as time goes on, the sexual attraction turns into something more.
It’s a funny thing to pick apart a story that I finished with a big goofy grin on my face. Yes, there were things that annoyed me and made me shake my head but I still really enjoyed the journey. I enjoyed it so much I was desperate to find more books by Natasha Madison. So, while I really enjoyed the story overall, I took off one star for all the *shake my heads*. While I really loved Lauren and Austin’s love story, I loved the additional characters as well. Lauren’s kids are sweethearts, Austin’s mates are funny and Lauren’s sister is a crack up.
In the end, Tempt The Boss wasn’t perfect, but it was perfect for me today. I’ve already downloaded the audio’s (Audible Escape) for Tempt the Playboy and Something So Right. After meeting those characters, I need to know them better.
Another enjoyable read by Natasha Madison.
An enemy to lovers romance containing light, funny moments and plenty of hotness.
Lauren is starting a new job, its a new start for her now that she’s a single mum and she’s ready to get back Into work after divorcing her cheating husband.
Austin is one of those bosses who has worked his way through a lot of personal assistants, he’s bossy, rude, basically, he’s an A-hole but a hot A-hole and he’s about to meet his match.
Lauren has a backbone, she’s sassy and outspoken. There’s instant chemistry between the two but instead of pretty fireworks, there are heated explosions.
Lauren wants to prove she is no pushover and tries to teach Austin, her bossy boss a lesson but it backfires more than once.
I enjoyed Tempt the boss, it’s a light-hearted read with enough going on to keep you interested, I Iiked the characters and the plot although not original, I have read many similar.
I also liked Lauren’s quirky sister too, who I’m looking forward to reading more about in her own book.
Hot in all the right places, swoon moments, great characters and finishes with a hea, perfect.
I listened to this in audio which was good but the male narrator’s voice didn’t have much emotion at times and I think the funny parts of this book may have been funnier to me if I had read this and those parts left to my own imagination rather than how he told it.
This book had me at chapter 1. I couldnt put this one down. I found myself laughing non stop with the back and forth between Lauren and Austin. The words Donkey Kong now have a new meaning for me after reading this book. Each of the characters were perfect and they all played off one another just like they needed to.
There is nothing that i would wish was different with this book. I found that there wasnt any part to it that didnt keep my attention. I have to say thank you to the person that found this gem and recommended it to me. There was parts that included other characters that you wanted to see their POV of what was going on. I can not wait to get my hands on the next book in this series
Hilarious with a little bit naughty humor. Kept thinking it would make a great romantic comedy movie!
Natasha Madison is a new author to me. Tempt The Boss is the first book in her Tempt Series. I have had this book on my kindle for awhile now and decided to check it out!
Holy hotness!! It went from 0 to 90 in 2 seconds flat!! One second they were pulling pranks and the next they were all over each other. I was not expecting that, especially with how the first half the book was going. I thought it was going to be a slow, sweet enemies to lovers… once they started, there was nothing slow or sweet about it!!
Besides being caught off guard and it feeling a little awkward for the characters; I enjoyed the story! I didn’t find the laxative funny but the itching powder…!!! I laughed so hard I was shaking and the tears wouldn’t stop.
Lauren’s first day back to work starts out great until she meets her new a*#hat of a boss! She should quit but her friend talks her into staying and the more she is around him the more she becomes attracted to him. Her body wants him while her brain says “Hell no!”
Austin has chased off many PA’s in the last month or so. He doesn’t expect the newest one to be any different! Little does he know he has met his match. Lauren doesn’t let him boss her around, at all! He knows he should fire her but his attraction to her keeps her around.
Will he give in and break his number one rule to have a chance with her or will they kill each other first?
I am glad I finally read this book. It sets up the next book in the series, Temp The Playboy, perfectly! Stay tuned for my review
This book was so much more than I expected. It had me laughing out loud so many times. I love a good office enemies to lovers romance and those pranks were hysterical!
Great read
First I want to say thank you to Natasha because it has been a long time since I laughed that hard from a book. The pranks that Lauren and Austin pulled on each other were priceless. They were childish pranks but they were so hilarious. All of the characters were fantastic even the annoying Jake and Camila were a necessary part of the story. The comedy along with the sexy heat factor made this book a must read. I love Natasha’s books so it’s not a surprise to me that was a great book. Until next time happy reading everyone.
I absolutely loved and enjoyed reading this book. It was funny, romantic and witty. It was my first read from this author but I’ll definitely read some more books from her. A 5 star read for me!
Lauren is a single mom now after being cheated on by her husband. After being a stay at home mom, she’s starting a new ‘temp’ job. The first day isn’t really starting that well and when it turns out that her run-in was with her new boss, it all seems to go downhill from there.
Austin never can seem to hold on to his PA’s and when Lauren comes into his life, she seems like a breath of fresh air. But right from the start, they get on the wrong foot and things get interesting at work. But what if they are just exactly what they both need and slowly but surely they break down each other’s walls… You never know that beneath it all, there’s more than meets the eye….
This was the first time I ever read this author and wow man I never laughed so hard in my life. One of my re read books! So entertaining!
