REVIEW - Kissing the Boss (Fairy Tale Quartet #2) by Linda Kage

The Book
Release Date: 2 March 2018
Goodreads Link

What’s the one thing you shouldn’t do when your boss is your ruthless evil widowed stepmother who hates your guts more than anyone?

Kiss the man she’s interested in.

So what does Kaitlynn Judge find herself doing?

Yep, she kisses the one man her stepmother currently wants, who also happens to be the CEO of the company where she works.

Can we say doomed?

After the death of her father, Kaitlynn's life has been stuck in a rut. But that begins to change after meeting a dashing stranger during the office Halloween party. Now she has to navigate vengeful stepmothers, meddling stepsiblings, and gorgeous guys in hot pursuit to reach her happily ever after.

While making a detour from the fantasy aspect, this contemporary take on the Cinderella story continues to cling to a few of our favorite traditions. You’ll still find the unmerited oppression along with fleeing women, missing shoes, mouse companions, magic wands, pumpkin-like rides to the big bash, and so much more. So rest assured, it’s all familiar and yet quirkily different.
 

My Review  5 STARS
**My thanks to the author for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**

This is another retelling of a fairytale, however this one is based on Cinderella and focuses on Kaitlynn Judge, who has a wicked stepmother, and two nice stepbrothers.  We also have Ezra Nash, the brother of Isobel Nash from book one.

Kaitylnn is a lovely warm-hearted girl who sees the good in everyone, even her wicked stepmother.  There is also so much love (sibling) between Kaitlynn and her stepbrother Brodrick (Brick) and we see a loving helpful brother, the other brother Hayden has his own issues, but also loves her.

Ezra has never met anyone like Kaitlynn before and cannot stop himself from falling for her, even as he tries to distance himself from her to keep her safe he just cannot do it.

Both are sweet individuals and we meet two other characters Camilla and Gabriella who will probably feature in the next two books.  I cannot wait to read them.

I read this book in one sitting as i just could not put this book down and i loved the suspense as to what was going to happen next.
