ASIA IS A SELFISH "B"
I didn't like this authors writing. This story is about a dominate female named Asia and a Wimpy male name Drew!!
Drew spend on week with Asia when they were in collage. Asia family is rich so she decides Drew is not good enough for her family to accept. They break up!! Fast forward six years and Asia has a 5 year old son. She refuses to tell Drew about his son. Instead she uses Drew to help her get a job with another company. If he helps her she will give his company one year of her Tech service. Whatever her service are the author doesn't really make clear!!
The whole story is about Asia's selfishness and how she uses Drew.
Drew is a Wimp!! he does anything Asia tells him. He even puts her needs and wants above his own developing tech company. 70% into the story Drew still doesn't know that Ollie is his son.
What a Nightmare of a story!! Don't waste your time on this. I don't understand the 5 and 4 star reviews. Glad it on Kindle Unlimited so it was just a waste of my time!! -

This was a emotionally thrilling, sexy, exciting and action packed adventure filled with engaging charters, witty dialog, interesting twists and heartwarming second chance born of forgiveness. Was a great read and had me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end.

I got to chapter 8 and called quits. I thought this was an easy, happy book, but it was just drama. Asia was mean and hurtful, she treated Drew as if it was dirt, was way too self righteous to admit that she did wrong and her reason for hiding the baby is non existence. She just decided that she was alone that he left after only a week (I mean he did left after she told him that she wanted to pay for their time together because she was getting her money’s worth), and that was it.
I was going to keep reading but saw in another review that after they get together and decide to pretend to be married she still didn’t tell him. I’m sorry but no, that’s no. I decided this book is not worth my anger, I read to relax, and being angry for an stupid character is not wha5 I need right now. -
Six years ago, Asia Humphry met Drew at a party, neither of them being much into parties but going to this one for a change of pace. They laughed at Drew’s corny pickup line and then danced together. And then holding her in his arms, he kissed her. Both were preparing for some important interviews coming up, but he knew he wanted more when they had time to start dating. Eventually, he decided she should win in the interviews and he was willing to throw it to let her win. She deserved it. They both had worked hard for it. She felt confidence, and he had waited for her. They went to dinner and she surprisingly asked him to come home to her apartment. He would be her “reward” for doing well on the interviews.
Drew and Asia spent a wonderful week together at her apartment in college, then it ended. She knew her family wouldn’t accept him and she had to give him up, so they had a huge fight and he left. She never told him about their child. Now in San Francisco, completely across the country, she sees him. Still not panicking, she figures it cannot possibly happen again. She’s sure she can avoid him. Until she shows up for an interview and meets her familiar new boss!
When Asia needs a husband to land another contract, she asks Drew to pretend to be her fake husband. And when truths come out later, their world is jumbled up. What will happen between them now? How will they ever sort out the mess they get entangled in?
Great story. I loved the sacrifice Drew made for Asia. He was the poor kid who worked so hard to aim for what was important. But he let it go to give her the dream she wanted. Do they work things out when the truth is exposed? Or was that the final straw for breaking any possible relationship now?

This was an incredible book with a well crafted story line. Be warned, once you begin reading you will find this book hard to put down. A different twist on second chance romances. A secret baby and more drama than you can imagine. This is Drew and Asia's story. To be honest, she was not my favorite heroine and I did not agree with her decision to hide her pregnancy and son from his father. She was selfish in my opinion, especially how he blew the interview in her favor. I really can't say more without giving a spoiler - but I will say that this is a book you will want to read, I read an arc and voluntarily chose to review.

Drew and Asia walk a fine line between sinfully, sexy and heart-achingly real. That makes for a tempestuous kind of romance. Married to my Boss has alot of baggage to work it's way through. Rose battle six years of secrets and distance plus one huge surprise. Slowly these characters wiggle their way into your heart without you having even realized that they have done so.

Good book. Needs a little editing.

Trama: horrible.
Personajes: sin química ni profundidad.
Smut: aburrida -
Ms. Annie Rose has released a beautifully crafted romance with a superbly designed storyline as well as the characters to match. This woman has some serious talent and creativity.
Imagine this... After 6 years, two fated individuals meet again and their life as they know it will change in a drastically different way.
Asia and Drew have a steamy and super hot past, however, eventually their relationship ended, because of the odds stacked against them.
To me, Drew is absolutely everything you would hope to find & have in a man and was written as an extraordinary character. In this publication, Drew made an incredible sacrifice for Asia, just because of who he is. Now they can only cherish, in their memories, their 1 amazing week together. That is until they meet again in San Francisco, so many years later, while looking at her new gorgeous boss. With a secret between them, Asia knows that she needs to come clean, but she also needs just one more favor... Does Drew help her again? What will transpire when he learns what Asia is keeping from him? Can these two ever obtain a happily ever after or has she destroyed any chance with her secret?
I am one of those people who do not like to give away any part of the plot, so that I do not ruin it for other readers. If I am being completely honest, I was riveted all the way through this impressive book and I suspect that this storyline will stay with me for some time to come.
I was beyond fortunate to have requested an advanced reader's copy of Married To My Boss in exchange for my honest and voluntarily given opinion and I couldn't recommend reading this book as well as anything published by Ms. Rose more. -
This book was a good read with a well written storyline and characters that were so well detailed that Drew and Asia kept me totally glued to my kindle until the turn of the very last page!

3.5

“Married to My Boss” completely had me from the very start. One thing I really like about this second chance romance was that “the past” was explained right away and completely so the whole book could concentrate on the present.
The author created two passionate characters that belonged together but because of immaturity and misunderstandings, parted ways. Asia had a big secret she kept from Drew and didn’t know how he’d react to that. Drew was confused about what Asia wanted with him and as a result insecurities arose.
If you love heroes that can’t stay away from the ladies they love, who admit they were wrong and make adult time steamy, you will enjoy this book.

3.5 Stars (rounded up on sites that do not allow half stars)
There were aspects of this book I absolutely loved but there were others I thought could have been done better. Overall I didn’t hate it, I probably would not pick it as something I’ll read a second time though.
This book featured something I haven’t come across before. When Asia meets Drew in his office the first time she falls into deep thought. We got to experience it as Drew watching her and wondering what it was all about. I’ve never seen it as a first person perspective from the observer. It was a unique aspect I loved and I felt it gave me a better understanding of both Asia and Drew. We see as he saw her. I also liked how Asia was the one who broached the fake marriage, it was her plan to get a job opportunity she wanted. I did not understand why she would want to put herself into a job (position) that had those particular views on women in the workplace in the first place. She seems like a pretty smart and put together woman otherwise.
The part I did not enjoy and did not understand at all was why Asia never told Drew he was a father. She was not a victim, nothing overly terrible happened so there was no reason for her to keep it from him once she found out. It broke my heart when he rushed to her house after learning not only was she a mother but her kid was sick. He practically dropped everything, got comfort food and rushed to her side to help out. This is after seeing her and speaking to her just the one time (across the room by chance doesn’t count) in 6 years.
Drew and Asia work great together as a couple and I really wish the author had come up with some other viable reason why Drew wouldn’t know he was a dad. It’s a familiar story type and some authors make it work, this was a case of it seeming not as well thought out and not at all original.

I gave this book 4 stars Married to my Boss is a Secret Baby Romance, but it's also a second chance at finding a true connection that leads to love.
This is the first book I read by this autor, and I really enjoyed it.
This was a light, quick romance it did have moments more intensity, and some funny moments.
Asia met Drew in college they had known each other for a while but she was focused in her studies, never gave herself the chance for an opportunity for a romance with him. Until one night at a party they danced, drank, kissed had sex and spent every minute of the whole following week together. Unfortunately they had a huge argument, they fought words were exchanged, Drew stormed out the door and never came back. That was the last time they saw each other until 6yrs later. Asia did get pregnant during that steamy week in college, but she never had a chance to tell him. He now has his own company, and she works as a freelancer helping companies with software issues. Drew has an interview to hire her, she has a plan of her own......she needs a husband! He doesn't know he's a father.
This story comes with a bit of complete misinterpretation, lies, manipulating, family life, steamy sex, mother's love ❤ I liked the secondary characters. I just couldn't believe that Drew couldn't figure out that Oliver was his son, when Asia kept saying liked just like his dad? I wanted to whack him over the head a couple times. Oliver is 5 and smart as a button. You can definitely feel the chemistry in between them Asia & Drew.
This story does end with a HEA, it's a standalone with no cliffhangers. -
Should all women get a happy ending! Maybe? Okay I enjoyed this book, but I wasn’t very happy with Asia’s decision to keep her secret. This story is about Asia and Drew. This story starts off with them both meeting in college going for the same internship. After meeting her at a party and sharing a kiss, he decides she deserves this internship and botches up his own interview. She gets it and they end up spending the rest of the week together. Note, Asia comes from a wealthy family and he works to keep living. They have a fight on their last night as Asia tells Drew that her family will never accept him, and that the week was all they could have. Surprise, surprise he gives her something for the rest of her life. Now fast forward six years where she moves to CA with her son Ollie. You will need to read the story to find out who she is married to the boss and does Drew forgive her for the secret she kept. Like I said you would need to read this book to judge it for yourself. I like this author, and I am never disappointed in what the outcome and this book definitely has HEA as well.

An enjoyable romantic read.
Drew and Asia competed against each other throughout college, all toward a countdown to an internship. Drew, poor boy making good and Asia, rich competitive parents who always had high and higher expectations for their daughter. Finally in their senior years, at a party, they actually communicated with each other. And Drew decided that Asia deserved the internship. They spent the week following her win, in each other's pockets, until things were said and it all falls apart.
Six years later, Asia, a single mother, disinherited by her parents for that "bad" decision, has been recommended to a relatively new company, as well as interviewing for another company. When she finds out the first company is owned by Drew, that's one thing and when the other job's (one she really wants) interview ends badly, due to the fact that the owner has something against single female employees. Asia's solution is to work for Drew, have Drew pose as her husband so she can land the other job as well. Now with their past history and their current proximity, can Drew and Asia work through their issues and come back together...and when will Asia tell Drew he's a father?

This was a decent book. Would I ever read it again... no, will I remember it in a year.. doubtful, but it was a good read. My opinion it was insta love. I just didn't believe the relationship. Their son was the greatest thing about this book and all the side characters. I enjoyed all the characters honestly, I just didn't believe in the relationship. -
Asia and Drew went to college together and competed for the same internship. He decided to let Asia have it by messing up the interview process purposely. She invited him back to her dorm where they had one night that turned into a week relationship. She had to let him go because her parents would not approve and it was the deal they made. Later, she discovered he left behind a surprise. Fast forward six years…Drew was a partner in his own company. An investor suggested he hire an independent freelancer. Asia moved to San Francisco, CA with her son, Ollie. Her brother soon followed and bought the house next to hers. She was going for an interview about a job when she discovered it was with Drew. They hem hawed around one another for a while. Then, she had an opportunity to grad another contract she desperately wanted…to do so, she had to have a husband…she asked Drew. When they were successful, her best friend came to town and Drew was jealous! Then the truth came out and everything was in a shamble…where would they go from there? What about Mark? Ollie?

A new author for me. I liked the book but felt it fell short in places. I didn’t feel the fire between is couple and parts read slow. For me it’s a 3.5 rate. The story is about Drew and Asia. Both meet in college and compete for the same awards. They find themselves at a party a week before an interview they both want - their attraction get’s the better of them and they spend a week together. Asia’s family is weak and sh ends up paying for their dates. Drew earns what he can while going to school. Drew cares for Ava and he throws the interview to ensure that Asia gets it. Six years later Asia has a little boy, Ollie and moves to San Francisco and is looking for freelance work and ends up seeing Drew at a random restaurant and then another person mentions her being a good match for Drew’s company. Asia comes up with a crazy plan, that She and Drew marry to help her get her dream job. In return, she will help Drew by working for Drew’s company for a year for free.
