Review: 𝒲𝒽𝑒𝓃 π’΄π‘œπ“Š 𝒒𝒾𝓋𝑒 π’œ πΏπ’Άπ“Œπ“Žπ‘’π“‡ π’œ π’¦π’Ύπ“ˆπ“ˆ  is a laugh out loud romcom that had me rolling on the floor but also biting my nails! Ann was able to bring all the broody and possessive vibes when writing Dawson Tate but also show a softer much loved side after he meets his matching Reese Taylor. This book was a sweet, fast paced, and quick read that brings the feel-good vibes with a touch of forbidden office romance at its best. Ann truly tied the novella up in a way that makes us want more of these two but also gives us a hint at what’s to come! 
 
Reese Taylor is a fierce and fiery FMC and I adored her from the moment we met her. Her unconventional meet-cute with Dawson brought me to tears because he is the GRUMPIEST MMC ever but also has a sweet side only shown to her. The way the meet-cute went from sweet to HAWT also showed just how much chemistry these two had and we can only leave it to Dawson to ruin his chance before it truly began! 
 
Ann was able to make the couple have a more organic feel while reading through the way she added the push and pull between them. The fight they had to deny feeling and prevent them getting close to each other was comical and added OH SO MUCH angst to the book. I appreciated how the office romance was a slower build until the explosion and loved how Reese stayed independent and true to her self. Dawson was also the best match for the fiery red head and seeing the cold lawyer fall hard for his woman was full stop swoon!

Rating: 4.5/5; Ann once again gives us a heartwarming yet angsty workplace romance with a noteworthy HEA! 
 
Thank you to Wordsmith Publicity & Ann for sending me this eARC!
