Publisher Description
I’m not going to stop. I’m going to drown in you, and then I’m going to do it again. And again. Until I’ve had my fill.
Zoe Brook has been sent to clean up a bad boy’s reputation. And that’s just fine—she knows all about hiding the sins of the past. But Hunter Grant, sports hero and renowned womaniser is so much…more than she ever expected.
Money, passion and power come as naturally to this man as the women who flock to his bed. But Zoe’s determined not to be another notch on his bedpost. So when Hunter turns his considerable focus and energy to seducing her, she draws on every sharp put-down in her arsenal. But with no sassy comebacks left, the final words on Zoe’s lips are…Yes. Oh, yes.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
This love/hate romance, part two of the multi-author Fifth Avenue trilogy (following Avenge Me by Maisey Yates), pairs up pro-football bad-boy Hunter Grant, whose anger management issues got him kicked out of the NFL, and Zoe Brook, the PR diva who is out to reform him for her own secret ends. Predictably, Hunter plays the "poster boy for chest-beating alpha male" and Zoe takes the role of unconvincing ice queen. Despite a decade of scheming revenge against their mutual enemy, series villain Jason Treffen, Zoe risks throwing her life away because of her breathless and unreasonably instant lust for Hunter. He supposedly has a sensitive, vulnerable side, but his behavior rarely strays from misogynistic obnoxiousness. The plot serves as a background device that both flat characters mostly ignore in favor of repeatedly batting pointless innuendo back and forth. Capping off the dull conversation and indulgent, ill-advised sex with a scene of domestic-violence-as-romance (" Hit me harder,' he told her gruffly") takes this book from cheesy to deeply unfortunate.
