Cocktails and Books's Review of King of Wall Street (The Royals)

by Louise Bay

THE KING OF WALL STREET IS BROUGHT TO HIS KNEES BY AN AMBITIOUS BOMBSHELL.

At work, I’m King of Wall Street. The heaviest hitters in Manhattan come to me to make money. They do whatever I say because I’m always right. I’m shrewd. Exacting. Some say ruthless.

At home, I’m a single dad trying to keep his fourteen year old daughter a kid for as long as possible. If my daughter does what I say, somewhere there’s a snowball surviving in hell. And nothing I say is ever right.

When Harper Jayne starts as a junior researcher at my firm, the barriers between my worlds begin to dissolve. She’s the most infuriating woman I’ve ever worked with.

I don’t like the way she bends over the photocopier—it makes my mouth water.

I hate the way she’s so eager to do a good job—it makes my body twitch.

And I can’t stand the way she wears her hair up exposing her long neck. It makes me want to strip her naked, bend her over my desk and trail my tongue all over her body.

If my two worlds are going to collide, Harper Jayne will have to learn that I don't just rule the boardroom. I’m in charge of the bedroom, too.

The King of Wall Street is a stand alone, contemporary romance.

All hail the King of Wall Street!

Max King meets his match when his new junior researcher forces him to ignore his usual office demeanor and figure out how to act when he finds himself extremely attracted to his employee.

I always love when an alpha male gets knocked on his arse by a woman who refuses to take his BS. That's Max and Harper. She calls him an a-hole more than she calls him by his given name, but she manages to bring chaos and calmness to Max's world. They were incredibly sexy together, even when they were bickering.

I loved the relationship between Harper and Max's fourteen-year-old daughter. Max's daughter was missing her mother and Harper was the perfect elixir to help her navigate living with her father and is over-protectiveness.

I always enjoy a Louise Bay book, but this one had all those elements I love in a book: sexiness, laughter and emotions. If you haven't picked up a Louise Bay book before, THE KING OF WALL STREET is definitely one to pick up.
