Hard Sell by Lauren Layne

Hard Sell (21 Wall Street, #2)

by Lauren Layne

He’s a Wall Street wolf. She’s been hired to tame him. From New York Times bestselling author Lauren Layne comes a wildly sexy novel of business and pleasure.

Twenty-eight and filthy rich, Matt Cannon is the youngest broker on Wall Street. He may be a “boy wonder,” but he’s every inch a man. Ask any woman—any night. But when Matt’s latest fling makes scandalous headlines, his clients get anxious, and his bosses at Wolfe Investments level an ultimatum: keep his assets zipped, get a “real” girlfriend, and clean up his act. Only one woman can help Matt with something this hard.

For PR genius Sabrina Cross, the best fixer in Manhattan, playing Matt’s steady is going to be a challenge, even if it’s just for show. They already have an explosive history, she can’t stand the cocky party boy, and worse—she can’t stop thinking about him. So who’ll dare to break her “no touching” rule first? Because when that happens, Matt and Sabrina’s game of let’s pretend will get so hot it could set both their reputations on fire.

Lauren Layne is just one of those authors, who always works for me.

I was happy to finally get the scoop on the animosity between Matt and Sabrina. I will say, I was not expecting that. I wasn't really expecting what I learned about their backstories either, but it really explained why they were the way they were.

It's always interesting to read a romance starring a hero and a heroine, who both don't buy into the whole love thing. It's also very gratifying, when they start to come around. I really enjoyed these two together. The attraction was there, but there was more to it. They were able to scratch beyond the surface of each other and see beyond the illusion they projected for everyone else.

Obviously, I got a little frustrated, but that whole set up at the end had me standing up and cheering. It was perfect.

Another successful LL book, and I CANNOT wait for Kate and Kennedy's story.
