His Mistress, His Terms

Trailer: Rich, gorgeous playboy Alex Fitzgerald initially hires Merrow O'Connell for her interior design skills. But soon Alex is determined to break his number-one rule and have the Irish beauty in his bed. She's perfect mistress material! Merrow can't argue with the boss. But she's learned not to let anyone get close and has vowed to stay unattached. So what will she do when the billionaire playboy suddenly wants her to be more than just his mistress?

Thoughts: Not sure why it took me over a month to read this book. I guess I was distracted with several others that caught my eye (as usual) but anyways.....I thought it was a good book. It was not written like a typical HP with the hero fighting his feelings. Alex and Merrow spent a passionate night together and met some time later when he hired her to work with him on a project. Alex was very must pursuing Merrow who was attracted to Alex but wanted to keep her distance. Alex didn't strike me as being cold and distant.....he was very much in the relationship and in love with Merrow the whole time. Merrow is the one that did the running and tried to protect her heart. In the end, Merrow is the one that confessed the love she was feeling first and that really irritated me. I wanted Alex to come clean.

Let me hear your thoughts on this one if you have read it. Still looking for Lynn Graham
