Two MUST reads from Berkley Romance.
Room for Two (The Breakfast in Bed Series)
From the New York Times bestselling author of Keeping It Hot comes the continuation of the sexy and humorous Breakfast in Bed series featuring handsome hotel moguls.
When Asher Jackson, the playboy co-owner of the Oceanix Hotel Chain, meets Dana Anders, manager of the gourmet coffee shop within the Oceanix Resort, he longs to strike up a good rapport with her. But to his surprise, his typical charm immediately fails him and he can’t help but provoke her with sarcastic remarks at every turn.
Even though Dana can give as good as she gets, she’s confused by Asher’s hostility toward her–especially when she harbors a secret attraction toward him. When she finds herself with unexpected bills to pay, Dana strikes up a deal. For a reasonable fee, the financially strapped Dana will pose as Asher’s girlfriend to drive away bitter women who are making his life miserable. Asher hasn’t engaged in a serious relationship since his heart was broken five years previously, so he thinks playing husband to a fake wife won’t be a problem. But as the relationship continues he’s no longer quite so certain. And as the line between false animosity and real attraction becomes blurred, Dana begins to realize that the one thing she wants is what she’s pretending to already have.
Asher and Dana quickly learn that there’s a thin line between love and hate. These two are a mess. Asher, for lack of a better word, is an A1 asshole when it comes to Dana. Throwing out hateful words like candy conversation hearts, he is masking a devastating past. Dana is one hell of a woman to put up with it all. Soon enemies become lovers and nothing will ever be the same.
Book two of the Breakfast In Bed Series was a quick read that kept me entertained. Although it was not as solid of a read for me as book one of the series, I still felt a connection with the characters and story. For me some of conflicts were hard no’s but I was still engaged. Sydney Landon is a favorite for me, and I will continue to enjoy her stories as they come. I am looking forward to reading more from of this series.
