Change in Strategy

4 1/2 stars. Another winner for Sierra Hill. I am really enjoying this series so far and this, book 2 in the series that can be read as a stand-alone, definitely lived up to my expectations. Peyton is 21 and very innocent. She has been through a lot in her family life and her own personal battle but now is hopefully her time to shine. Landing a coveted internship in LA is just what she wanted. She meets someone her first night there in that movie-esque eyes lock across a crowded room way. There may or may not be some kissing involved but then Peyton leaves expecting to never see him again. Imagine her surprise when she walks into her first day at her internship only to find him as the CEO. Sigh. Brody Jensen. Swoon. He is so sweet, sexy and irresistible. I love how their story unfolds and how they deal with difficult situations as they come up together. Mostly. It is not always an easy relationship to navigate since he is her boss but the love bug bit Brody that first night at the bar and he will not give up until Peyton is his. I really enjoyed this story and these characters and love that Garrett and Brooklyn made appearances. And Kyler is a hoot! Would love to see him fall in love!

Well I thought Peyton meeting with Brody at a bar after temporarily moving to LA to start a internship in men’s fashion but not knowing that he’s the CEO of the place she’s interning at was going to top the Game Changer. Unfortunately, the women that Brody and Garrett are choosing are so annoying and irritating?!? Each of the leading men must have an ‘hero complex’ to his emotionally unhinged young women in their twenties. The only comedic relief is Brooklyn and Peyton’s fun loving gay friend, Kyler who will be the last character to have his story told in the third and final book series, Change of Hearts. Unfortunately as much as I want to know how Kyler’s story ends, I’m not going to purchase the digital copy of the last book. I’m not exactly a fan of MM gay genre especially with more sex between him and the ‘closeted older art history professor, Lucas and Garrett’s best friend from the Game Changer.

Sierra Hill is an amazing author who creates storylines that intrigue us and capture our attention, and characters that pull on our heart strings, who we will never forget. “Change in Strategy” is the second book in her Change of Hearts Series, where we meet innocent intern, Peyton and successful businessman, Brody. It was love at first sight for Brody when he spotted Peyton across the crowded bar, and she was in awe of his good looks, kindness and sexy smile. Her mom told her not to fall for a handsome man in an expensive suit, and because of this, Peyton had shielded herself from relationships, which kept her safe from anymore heartache and despair. She really didn’t like living this way and she had worked very hard to overcome her personal demons. Peyton’s future looked bright and she couldn’t wait to begin her career in the fashion industry. She wanted to open her heart to the possibility of love, but why did her new boss have to be the same man who had ignited feelings inside her that she thought didn’t exist? What crazy trick was the universe playing? Brody prided himself in being nothing like his father who was a womanizer and had a different wife every few years. Brody’s job was his life, with little time for anything more. When he met Peyton, he knew she was special, the chemistry instantaneous, and he had to see her again. He was certainly surprised when she showed up in his office as his new intern. He made it a policy to never date an employee, but how could he survive the work day with Peyton in the building? Could he possibly keep his hands to himself?
