GRR Reviews Bad for the Boss: A BWAM Office Romanc by Talia Hibbert

Bad for the Boss is a British romance that featured a half-Asian guy and a plus-sized Black gal. Not sure if it's good or bad, but I hardly noticed the race of the characters once I'm into the story.

Theodore Chamberlain is a stereotypical bad boy businessman with a terrible temper. He should have never met model employee Jennifer Johnson until Jennifer's email accidentally ended up in his inbox, and he's intrigued, and what he wants... he gets. Jen's not ready to give in, as she does not want to risk her perfect job for a fling, but Ted's determined to offer her any guarantee she wanted, as long as he can have her... And when a threat from her past surfaced, Ted's there...

Ted's supposed to be Asian? Well, he's HALF-Asian, supposedly his father married Chinese from Hong Kong. And JJ is black with curves. But I honestly don't feel much ethnicity there in the book except for occasional bits. The guy's British except for his name (Ted's actually his middle name). The plot was actually above average, with a bit of bookend beginning and end. All in all, above average.
