Bad for the Boss
Bad for the Boss | Talia Hibbert
6 posts | 7 read
For the first time ever, this red-hot standalone is available to Google Play readers. Nobody denies the boss. Until her. Theodore Chamberlain’s known for his laser-sharp focus and blunt demands—in the boardroom and the bedroom. The anti-social millionaire has never mixed business with pleasure before… but for a fierce new employee with knockout curves, he’ll make an exception. Jennifer Johnson knows better than anyone that life is tough. Why complicate things by risking the job she loves for a lust that can’t last? Her boss may be hotter than hell—but Jen’s the one who’d end up burned. Trouble is, Theo’s mightily persuasive, surprisingly sweet, and extremely difficult to resist. When a threat from Jen’s past resurfaces, her powerful boss becomes her unflinching protector. Can Theo save Jen from the evil that stalks her? And will Jen ever give in to her desires and dare to be bad for the boss?

This book felt like a strange intersection of billionaire BDSM, romantic suspense, and erotic romance. The sex was hot, the "contract" seemed like an unnecessary plot device, and the suspense felt really strange. All in all, they all felt a bit thrown together without much cohesion. Fluff, but not as enjoyable as her Brown sisters series! 3/365

Sexy and suspenseful! This book was so good - Jen was hilarious and awesome. Theo was beyond sweet and so hot. There‘s the touch of taboo with an office/age gap/Cinderella tropes and a bit of suspense thrown in too and it all worked beautifully.

The sensitivity Theo shows is so good. And I loved Jen, she‘s sweet and sarcastic and loves food- I feel this woman 😀

I loved Get A Life, Chloe Brown so much I decided to delve into my kindle for other Talia Hibbert freebies I may have grabbed. This isn't as good as Chloe, but I liked it! (I don't typically read thriller-tinged romances, so I cannot compare.)

This was 🔥🔥🔥🔥. Seriously loved this it book it was the perfect combination of steam and angst with a dash of suspense to keep the plot moving.

Trigger warnings for.... age gap, power imbalance and parent death.

On a high from reading that Hibbert book and reviewing her backlist for other interesting titles, I sincerely accidentally one-clicked this title and rolled with it. It was... not entirely my cup of tea, and I should have investigated further before purchasing. I loved the idea of the heroine, a black woman described as very not thin who is never seen as anything other than beautiful and desirable by the hero, but...

esurient ...I disliked her too-perfect characterization: she's a technical virgin giving flawless romantic advise, just began her first-ever professional job and is a rising star, presented as a good girl wanting to cut loose but one poorly-plotted romance misunderstanding has her handed (free) drugs by a shady friend, but she only accepts the baggie because she's being socially polite.

esurient The plot was such a kitchen-sink collection of romance, trauma, blackmail, and attempted murder, which are all separate plot tangles that barely tangentially apply to each other. 5y
esurient I like how this author is very upfront about giving plot descriptions and trigger warnings, but despite reading the warning about 'office relationships with power imbalance,' I was completely surprised to find a ripped-from-the-summery Fifty Shades of Grey echo, complete with a relationship (mild) BDSM contract, which the characters mostly treat as a funny joke, sweet-but-also-serious.

esurient Albeit, this book is probably the healthiest and best-written presentation of those particular story elements. (edited) 5y
esurient All in all, my feelings on this one were mixed to unhappy. I don't intend to continue with this trilogy, and I'm unlikely to purchase anything more of hers any time soon (...I do have a couple of her freebie titles...), but I will keep an eye out to see if the author writes a companion to that Huntress Halloween story.

esurient (I did really like how the hero's responses to the heroine's trauma(s) were to immediately present safe spaces and fling money at therapists.) 5y
