Hot Asset by Lauren Layne

Hot Asset (21 Wall Street, #1)

by Lauren Layne

Featured on Inside Edition.

A sexy agent hounds Wall Street’s hottest new wolf in an exhilarating novel from New York Times bestselling author Lauren Layne.

Ian Bradley is the definition of a Wall Street hotshot: seven-figure salary, designer suits, and a corner office. His drive off the floor is just as potent. Every woman who knows him has felt the rush. But now he’s met his match in Lara McKenzie—a woman with the power to bring Ian to his knees.

An ambitious, whip-smart daughter of FBI agents, Lara is a rising star in fighting white-collar crime. Her latest case—the investigation of Ian Bradley for insider trading—could make her career. She knows a scoundrel when she sees one. Ian fits the bill: a cocky, ridiculously handsome bad boy with a slick swagger.

She’ll do anything to prove he’s guilty. He’ll do anything to prove he’s not. But it’s only a matter of time before their fierce battle of wits gets oh so hot and personal. Now, taking down Ian has become more than business for Lara. It’s become a pleasure—and there’s more at risk than she ever dreamed.

And my love affair with Lauren Layne continues.

Once again, she assembled a fabulous group of characters, who I want to get to know better. The seeds for future romances were so well planted, and I can't wait to sow those seeds.

Ian and Lara were such a great couple to kick this series off with. I am always up for a good enemies-to-lovers, and these two were great together.

There was the chemistry and banter we have grown to expect, but there was also some really sweet moments, which made me let out a wistful sigh.

LOVED the ending a whole lot. I swear! I clapped my hands, because I was so happy for a certain character, and I liked that there was sacrifice, but not the kind that compromised their dreams.

Another great Layne series!
