Lily ran away from her father to seek her fame as an actress when she's 18. Five years later, she's back in town, almost broke, without much to show, and her father offered her a job in the family company. NOT as an exec though... As exec's assistant... and the exec? Wes, her former secret crush... and the family landscaper's son. But if she can work for a year, his father promised to release her trust fund early... By 24. She had to stay to keep her dreams... // Wes knew he wasn't good enough... as son of a gardener. He was happy when Lily's father gave him a job and a chance to be more... so he can court Lily properly one day. Now 25, he's the youngest VP in the company... But he was hoping for a few more years to make him absolutely indispensable to the company, so when he asks for Lily's hand in marriage, there would be no way to refuse him. Lily's early return derailed his plans, and it's obvious she's not happy working for him either... For there's tension underneath the hostility...
Good setup, a semi-reversal of fortunes, but the rest of the book was basically secret liaisons while they hide their feelings from the entire company, each other, and themselves. And the cover's kinda lame. Generic hunk in blue jeans? Really? 4/5
