The Wright Boss is the second book in the Wright Brother's series. If you've read the first book, you know all about Landon Wright and his evil wife, Miranda. When I saw his book was next, I wondered how this was going to work out... One thing I knew for sure, it was going to have it's typical Linde angst. And I was so glad to be right. The angst was perfect in this forbidden/workplace romance.

The Wright Boss is the second book in the Wright Brother's series. If you've read the first book, you know all about Landon Wright and his evil wife, Miranda. When I saw his book was next, I wondered how this was going to work out... One thing I knew for sure, it was going to have it's typical Linde angst. And I was so glad to be right. The angst was perfect in this forbidden/workplace romance.

No matter how attractive he is to her, Landon is forbidden to Heidi in every sense of the word. #1- Landon is married. He's going through a divorce, but he's still married. #2- Landon used to date Heidi's best friend. Yes, it was in high school and her best friend is now dating Landon's brother, but it still would be breaking girl code, right? And #3- Landon is her boss. If there is one thing Heidi takes seriously it's her job. She's worked hard and jumped through many hurdles to get to where she is today. She has no intention of messing that up. But Landon has a way of getting under her skin and getting her to do things she knows she shouldn't...

I’d tried to forget him. I’d tried to stay away from him. I’d tried not to look at him. All I did was fail.

I loved watching things build between Heidi and Landon. They both took risks being with one another and their chemistry was off the charts. Heidi was a great heroine. I liked her in the first book as Emery's best friend, but I loved her in this one. She's a strong and independent woman who's been through a lot and always wants to pave her own way. I can respect her for that. Landon was pretty fantastic as well! The poor guy had been through so much with his career and the whole Miranda thing, I just wanted him to get the happiness he deserved. Now Miranda... she was so terrible, there is no way I would call this a story love triangle (initially I thought it might be). I never once rooted for her or felt any kind of sympathy for her over their marriage ending and I doubt many readers will.

The Wright Boss is the perfect work place romance. It's sexy, angsty, forbidden, and has it's sweet and light moments that balances it out perfectly. I loved Landon and Heidi together and I especially loved the build up for the next book... OMG Austin Wright you hot mess, you! I can't wait for more of these Wright Brother's! I'm just sad there is only one left!

“I’ll risk everything for you.”

This cover is OK in a generic cover sort of way. The technicalities are all there. It has great composition. The typography is eye catching, and the neon green makes the title POP. It is similar to book one so nice consistency through the series so far. It is just a little bland. It doesn't really represent the story found within. It is a cover that could be used for a million other romance books with no problem. description

This cover is OK in a generic cover sort of way. The technicalities are all there. It has great composition. The typography is eye catching, and the neon green makes the title POP. It is similar to book one so nice consistency through the series so far. It is just a little bland. It doesn't really represent the story found within. It is a cover that could be used for a million other romance books with no problem.

I actually ended up enjoying this one. It had one issue that stopped it from getting a higher rating, and I will get into that is a second, but it was better than book one for me. The drama in this one was a lot less Jerry Springer like. I found it to be well-written and nicely paced. I was never bored or felt the need to skim. Both main characters were fairly likable. It had a nice array of secondary characters. It had angst. It had OW drama. It had some hot sex scenes. All wrapped up with a fairly decent epilogue.

description

My major issue with this one and why it doesn't get a higher rating is the timeline in which the whole book took place. I would have REALLY preferred the hero to have been recently divorced and not just separated. The entire book takes place while he is still married. Right at the start, we learn Landon had an argument with his wife (Miranda) and flew home. Mere hours later he is making out with the heroine and making plans to make her his. Miranda shows up the next day, and Landon decides to give their marriage one last chance. Ummm...OK, with that decision he just became a cheater IMO. Now to be fair the reconciliation only lasts the plane ride home, then he puts the wheels in motion for the divorce. We then skip one month into the future, and he is now back home and the heroine's boss. So begins their romance. He also says to Miranda on a couple of occasions "I never cheated on you" Well that's not really true, is it? Along with the aforementioned make-out sesh, he and the heroine almost slept together months previously when he was still VERY married. So at the very least, he was emotionally cheating on his wife already back then. The whole scenario with him still being married just didn't sit right with me.

The next book in the series is Austin's, and I am straddling the fence about reading it. Austin is a raging alcoholic and an asshole. EVERY time we see him in book one and two he is drunk. On top of that, his family doesn't seem too interested in helping him as they always talk about it like it's no biggie. I mean in this book he was drunk AT WORK and no one seemed to care! We get a small excerpt from his book at the end of this one, and he is STILL drunk and going after his heroine. I honestly have NO desire to read a whole book about an alcoholic hero. Nor do I wish to read a whole book with a hero going through recovery. But curiously killed the cat..so which side of the fence I fall on is yet to be decided.

Although it still felt like it took forever, I enjoyed where Landon and Heidi's story took me. I loved the balance of strengths and weaknesses that surfaced throughout their journey of finding and fighting for each other. They certainly brought me along with them for the ride. There were so many ups and downs that it almost felt real. And you just won't be able to help but beg for them to get their happily ever after already after everything they went through. Because seriously, it was a shit storm. Once you've met Landon's ex-wife, Miranda, you'd totally understand.

Landon Wright's life fell apart the moment he broke his back and was told that he had to take an indefinite break from playing golf, which was his first and utter love. Then it continued to get upended when he finally saw his marriage for what it truly was. Landon became broken and lost that I felt so bad and sad for him. I felt even worse when he realized that he wasted a chunk of his life on a marriage that was doomed to fail right from the very start. And all he wanted was to live up to his family's name.

Heidi Martin is the kind of woman you'd think who has it all and is living the life. She's so vibrant and strong willed that you'd never guess that she was going through huge rough patches herself. You'd never know that she has her own family issues she's dealing with with how well she hides them. You'd never know in a glimpse at how vulnerable and broken she was. How she's also hanging on by a thread, going through something so deep and personal that she kept from everyone, except when she finally let Landon in.

I liked the way Heidi held herself and tried her best to be strong and be her own person, even if it wasn't healthy especially in the long run. She truly needed a shoulder to cry on or someone to talk to and who'd just support her through everything. And Landon was just the perfect guy to do so. They just complemented each other so well and the more you get into the story, the more you see and feel it.

There were also a number of lines here from Landon that were crazy borderline cheesy, but they made my heart flutter with how well it worked coming from him. I don't know if it was because of how vulnerable he is or how marshmallow-y his heart was, but it worked. And I liked it. It gave Landon Wright a softer side to his alpha self that will melt your heart away. I mean, he'll already incinerate your vaj and panties with his filthy words anyway. So what's one more organ to obliterate, right?

Landon and Heidi has also been friends for years even before they started working together at Wright Construction, so I loved how well they knew each other. There was already that build up of chemistry and tension right off the bat. And I think it made the story so much more than just a regular office romance. It takes you on a deeper, more detailed glimpse on their lives as individuals, as a couple and as a family. The whole perspective was vastly highlighted with the way K.A. Linde wrote this.

The Wright Boss is a sexy slow burn office romance that will definitely take you on a whirlwind of a journey between two broken souls who find solace and the kind of love that's entirely blinding and life changing with one another. There was also so much that happened in this book that you'll end up feeling like you've been with these characters for a long time, and not just a span of one book. If you enjoy slow burn romances with a forbidden feel to it, I think this book is for you.

And if you read until the very end, you'll also get a chapter from the next Wright book, The Wright Mistake, which will be about Austin and Julia and hooooo boy, I absolutely cannot wait for that one! It was only one chapter and I already want so much more. ...more

I read the first book in this series and wasn't really wow'd by it but thought it was ok. I wanted to read this book because Landon's story felt like it was going to be more intense and angst-filled. But I felt a bit letdown with how everything played out.

Landon and Heidi have known each other for a very long time. Landon dated Heidi's best friend back in high school. They were mutual friends. Fast forward many years later, Landon is in a miserable marriage and yet he can't fight the attraction he feels toward Heidi. Heidi feels it too but refuses to be that woman until she knew he was truly leaving his wife.

There is one issue that prevents them from being together publicly - he's her boss now. So they have to not only tiptoe around his family but they can't be seen together in public either. And then add in that his wife refuses to sign the divorce papers. Sounds exciting - but it felt like it all dragged out way too long with very little excitement happening.

Again, this is where it's more of this book just wasn't for me or just bad timing. I felt myself skimming, ALOT. I got bored with their interactions and them learning more about each other. And that is not good. I felt nothing for either of these characters, which sucks. I sped through the last half of this book, knowing how things would end, but hoping to maybe come across something more exciting. To my dismay, that did not happen.

As I said, I am in minority on this book. I just couldn't connect to any of the characters, nor get behind their story. I wanted more - hell, I was hoping Miranda (Landon's crazy wife) would have caused more of scene than she did to at least spice things up. But no dice.

I'm not trying to bash the book because it is written well. It just wasn't for me and/or bad timing too. If you enjoy a nice contemporary romance with not alot of angst and drama, this is a good read for you. ...more

This was a great read and I read it in one sitting. Landon won me over from the very start and I was delighted when he kicked his conniving wife to the curb. Not that she went easily but I'm glad he had the strength of his convictions. He still had a job convincing Heidi he was sincere but he persevered until she was willing to take a chance on him. She was risking a lot as relationships between immediate management and employees was forbidden in Wright Construction and she was also worried how Em would react. Landon was swoon-worthy in the extreme and I totally shipped them.

Our couple was so hot for one another and their chemistry was explosive. The sexual tension in the first third of the book was delicious and it kept me hooked. Both are dealing with separate issues in their personal lives and it was nice that they could be there to support one another.

I really enjoyed how much of a career-orientated person Heidi was and how she had to work extremely hard to hold her own in such an alpha-dominated environment. I can relate to that. Her career was very important to her and it's why she was so concerned about taking a risk with Landon - she didn't want to jeopardize everything she had worked toward over the years.

It was great to get glimpses of Jensen, Em, and Colt, and to see the other family dynamics at play. I'm intrigued by Austin's background and what demons are driving his alcohol addiction. I'm so looking forward to reading his book even if I'm not overly enamored with Julia, but I'm prepared to be won over. I enjoyed the sample we got at the back of this book and it's most definitely whetted my appetite.

The writing was great and the pacing was perfect and it flowed beautifully.

This was a five-star read right up until the main conflict detonated. I want to share my review without spoilers which is difficult when it comes to this part of the story so, fair warning, this is mildly-spoilery. I found this part of the plot weak and I struggled to accept it as believable when her boyfriend was part of the family who owned the business and his brother (and her bestie's boyfriend) was the CEO. I worked as Head of HR for 12 years and I have to say that Julia is the worst HR professional and a shitty friend. While I understand her personal relationship could have no bearing on the situation, no skilled HR professional fires someone without having all the facts to hand and without ensuring the relevant authority figures are aware of the situation, ESPECIALLY when this person is a well-respected loyal employee and a friend - you would do everything to avoid having to pull the trigger. I actually got really mad at that whole situation because it was a clear plot device and not properly thought out. I would have preferred if Miranda had used different means to cause chaos rather than going that route. Most readers probably won't have any issue with it but given my background, I just couldn't accept it as plausible or in any way credible. What was worse was the scene at the charity event when the Head of HR publicly assaulted one of the owners in front of clients and employees but she's allowed to keep her job? That was a worse scenario than what happened at the golf event, and it brought the brand into more disrepute in my opinion. It just didn't add up to me.

Also, while I understood Heidi's reaction toward Landon, her acceptance of Julia's role wasn't realistic. She should have been mad at her for not handling it properly but instead, she was mad at Landon. And Julia never once apologized for her unprofessional handling of the situation. Gah, I hate saying anything bad about another author's work but this really pushed my buttons and I hate that because I was LOVING this book up until this happened.

Anyway, that is my only complaint. The rest of the book was excellent and thoroughly enjoyable and I still wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. This is a great series and I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the Wright stories. I do hope the girls are getting books too as I'm so invested in this family and I want to read more in this world.

5 Wright is Right Again Crowns

If it is at all possible, I am more in love with Landon and Heidi than Jensen and Em, and I absolutely adored them. The Wright Boss has all the angst and heat that makes a forbidden romance so delectable, and I was captivated from the first chapter.

Landon is a hero that grew on me. In book one, The Wright Brother, and at the beginning of this story, Landon was kind of a push over with his wife/ex, Miranda. I mean how many chances can you give someone who clearly manipulates everything. His growth throughout the novel, though, turns him into a hero to adore, and I ended up really loving the way he stands up for Heidi and their relationship, showing that he won't cave.

Heidi is a pretty independent and somewhat closed off to an extent. She struggles to put herself out there, but her ability to resist her desires out respect for Landon and Miranda's marriage earns her major respect from readers. The inevitable blow-up between the two brings out the more volatile side of her character, but when push comes to shove she defends and supports the man she loves

The chemistry from the very beginning is explosive for these two. K.A. Linde dangles their forbidden courtship in our faces from the very beginning, and like Landon and Heidi, we crave their connection and their eventual exposure to the world. Readers will need these two to get their HEA. The conflict, especially who causes it, is not a surprise, but it was well developed through the plot, and the falling action and resulting resolution to the story really fit with the character development. In true romance fashion, the epilogue is fantastic and will leave readers with that gooey heartfelt happiness.

The Wright family just keeps getting better and better. They are crazy, yet incredibly supportive. Their love for one another is evident, and the way the author intertwines the romance with the familial relationship makes for fantastic reading. The Wright Boss should definitely be making it to your eReader!

I got to 40% and decided to stop torturing myself on this beautiful friday! I just can't get into it, the characters both hero and heroine are just so weak, agh!
The hero is a cheat, who doesn't know what the hell he wants, a big ass pansy - and the heroine is even weaker, accepting the bits and scraps the hero throws at her. If she is so bright, so beautiful, so put together - why is she lusting after a married man, who not only once but twice has hurt her feelings and put a stop to things ...more

4 stars!

K.A. Linde knows the true definition of angst. She is known as the Queen of Angst for a reason. She needs a title for making the best hated characters. Because Miranda just may rank up there with some certain villain from her Avoiding series.

Landon and Heidi's story was one I was anticipating, and wondering how it would play out. K.A. managed to do it in a way that didn't make Landon out to be a tool and Heidi a home wrecker. Well, there is one moment where I wanted to smack ...more

3.5 stars only because I loved Landon!

My feelings exact after reading this book!

Before I get into my review/rant I've read some reviews (not necessarily on here so don't take it personal) that were sorta put off by Landon and Heidi's relationship in "The Wright Boss"

Landon Wright had been Emery's beau back in high school and He ...more

After reading The Wright Brother , I knew that I had to read The Wright Boss right after that. Though they are not necessarily part of a series, you can read about previous characters that are feature in this book. Landon Wright has been through a lot in the past couple of years, not only is his marriage driving him crazy, but his career has come to a halt making him unable to do what he loves the most. Now he is back home and after having a steamy encounter with Heidi, his ex's best friend, things start to get complicated. He can't stop thinking about her, but the remainder that he is still married make things a whole lot worse especially when Heidi feels the same way for him. They know that their relationship can't go any further. It is then that Landon decides to divorce his wife, the only problem is that his wife doesn't want to divorce him and now he happens to be Heidi's new boss. As the two start to get to know more about each other it slowly becomes evident that neither one is ready to let go of their feelings towards one another. The only question now is just how ready they are to truly leave everything behind to be together.

Heidi has worked hard to be where she is now in her career, when a new promotion presents itself to her, she knows that she has what it takes to get the job done. Needless to say, she wasn't prepared to find herself in love with her new boss. One of her rules is to not involve herself romantically with anyone at work, and now things with Landon could potentially hurt her professionally. As the two begin to develop deeper feelings towards each other, the more she questions if putting her job at risk is worth it or not.

I really enjoyed reading the dynamic between the characters in this book. Heidi is a talented and strong woman. She knows what she wants and knows exactly how to get it, but that all changes when she meets Landon. He is not only kind to her, but also knows the value of having a career. As a professional golf player, he knows how important is it to maintain a good career, but that doesn't last very long because after having an injury he had to stop playing. Facing career problems as well as personal problems with his marriage has taken its toll on him. The characters will have to learn to leave everything behind and learn to compromise if they want a future together. Overall, the author did a good job making the characters relatable and the ending was so sweet that it will most definitely leave you wanting for more. I would highly recommend reading this book and The Wright Brother as well. :)
