GRR Reviews Talisa's Heart (Sisters of Charming Place by Imani King

Talisa's Heart, other than the protagonist being an African-American, just came across as a standard "hot for boss" trope romance with no particular innovations.

Isaac Brighton is a rich white boy, doing corporate law. Talisa is a black girl doing PA work so she can save enough money to go to graduate school. Talisa has no interest in Isaac, but Talisa cannot deny that Isaac is one gorgeous guy... and when he chose her to go to New York with him... that fling turned into a lot more. But Assistants are not supposed to hook up with their bosses... and even if Isaac want long term, Talisa is going back to school...

Overall, the romance is a little angst-y, but not too much so. There are really no clever plots, and polish is average, thus, average rating.
