Rate this book
MR. MAY

Man: Cade Austin, CEO of BrenCO

Mission: To lure pretty Kylie Brennan out of the boardroom and into the bedroom!

Mistake: Letting her know his not-so-honorable intentions…

Cade didn't need a meddling woman in his life! So when the late owner of BrenCo left him 49% of the company—and Kylie the other 51%—Cade decided he would buy her out, then get her way out of town. But when she came strolling into the office—all lush curves and long legs—Cade knew that this was one woman he wasn't going to let out of his sight for long!

MAN OF THE MONTH:

Could he talk his business partner into becoming his marriage partner?

192 pages, Mass Market Paperback

About the author

Barbara Boswell

124 books45 followers
Barbara Schroeder was born on 28 October 1946 in McKeesport, Pennsylvania, USA. She worked as nurse, before she married William P. Boswell, a attorney, and they had three daughters.

She has been a longtime romance novel fan, becoming hooked on the romances by Harlequin back in the mid-‘70s when she was home with her three small daughters. When the youngest reached school age in 1983, she wanted something to do with her extra time. She thought about going back to nursing, but didn't care to deal with hospital shifts. She'd often made up stories in her head and/or continued the stories that she'd read, so it seemed like a fun idea to try to write a story of her own. It took a lot more effort and organization than the loosely strung-together scenes she'd run through her mind, but she was right about the fun part! She enjoyed the whole process and wrote a story that she knew she would enjoy reading. She sent it off and was thrilled when it was accepted! It was even more exciting to see her name on the book cover. Some 50-plus books later, it's still a thrill to see her name on the book and it's still fun to make up stories — at least most of the time!

Barbara gets her ideas from everywhere but especially from reading, which she loves to do. Sometimes, just a sentence in a newspaper or a magazine will spark an idea to develop into a romance. Other times, she'll be inspired by another romance novel and she will try to put her own spin on a favorite old plot. Barbara believes that we all have our preferences — she's always been partial to the "secret baby" story line. That, plus the "marriage of convenience" and class or family conflicts are some of her particular favorites.

Her three daughters are all grown up now, and she and her husband are the proud grandparents of a beautiful little grandson. They also have three cats who seem to think that they are the rulers of their house. They are terribly spoiled, and they just might be right.

Delightfully enjoyable Barbara Boswell book. The heroine is made a heiress and has to deal with her vulture relatives who I would have stabbed. The hero was supposed to inherit the company and is unhappy about what the heroine may decide and the power she yields. There is instant attraction between them though the heroine tends to be wary because of the shares she owns plus her being a lawyer but all in all a book I enjoyed.

Can't wait to read the heroine's brother's story.

Una herencia, un plan, una familia complicada... pero el instalove me ha superado en esta ocasión, creo que la historia sucede en 3 o 4 días como mucho y ya se están prometiendo amor para toda la vida, acciones en una empresa que complican todo mucho más... es entretenida, se lee rápido pero le ha faltado algo para que me gustara un poco más.

He leído malos libros y aparte esta este. La historia no tiene sentido, los protagonistas carecen de carácter, emocionalmente se comportan como adolescentes y en fin son completamente ridículos. Pésima trama, pésimo desarrollo de historia, malos personajes, mal desarrollo de protagonistas. Definitivamente no creo que lea nada más de la autora. No necesito perder más tiempo
