Coldhearted Boss by R.S. Grey

4 out of 5 steam level

Wow I had a really hard time rating this book.  Here's the deal, it started off rough for me.  Mostly because it featured my least favorite trope of all time- poor girl and rich boy.  Now there are occasions in which the story or characters will help me get past my hatred of this trope (I'm looking at you The Distance Between Us).  But that's the exception... the rule is Poor vs Rich trope is a big no for me.  But alas, Rachel is a master at her craft and had me totally rooting for this couple.  I was invested in their lives and knew their motives.  So without further pomp and circumstance I officially rate this book ...4 out of 5 steam levelHow did she turn me around completely to this book? Well she also included my favorite trope: hate to love you.  What else do I absolutely adore in a romance? A slow burn.  And oh boy did this feature a slow burn!  It also featured R.S. Grey's signature wit and charm that she writes into her characters.  So while this book started off rocky for me, about 1/3 of the way into it I was absorbed fully.  I read the next 2/3 of the book in one sitting.  Let me emphasize this...I read the next 2/3 in one sitting after I taking a sleeping pill.  I refused to give into sleep because I loved this book so much!  It ended with a perfect epilogue- which you know I'm a sucker for.  What can I say, R.S. Grey does it again!  If you like a steamy romcom then run don't walk to your nearest R.S. Grey book because she is a Queen of her craft!
