Review:
The New Guy by Kathryn Freeman is filled with a lot of drama. It’s funny, charming, angsty, and romantic. A woman CEO, Sam, goes to a bar, gets drunk, and hits on the hot brooding guy next to her. At first, I didn’t like either character in this first meeting. Afterwards, I liked them both better. Meeting the sober, Sam and the brooding code writer, Ryan, it was interesting. Never a dull moment. Their chemistry is instant. It explodes every time they’re in a room together. However, Sam is the boss and she’s trying to ignore their chemistry and memories of their hot one night stand. Ryan cannot forget about that night either. Each day, he is more interested in the gorgeous red head for a boss. But after one disastrous work relationship, Sam is scared. This writer’s style works. Each page was entertaining, the story was action-packed enough to keep my attention.
