Working It by Kendall Ryan
Published November 11, 2013
About the book:A story of heart-stopping, toe-curling passion by the beloved bestselling author of Hard to Love, Resisting Her, and The Impact of You.
Straight-laced and well-mannered southerner Emmy Clarke is out of her depth in New York City’s fashion world, but when she lands a job as an assistant at a modeling agency it seems like the perfect mix of business and pleasure. Working under the notoriously tyrannical Fiona Stone is a nightmare, but there’s one distinct perk: ogling the ridiculously hot male models who parade through the office—particularly rising star Ben Shaw.
Ben is everything Emmy’s not: exquisitely gorgeous, highly paid, and well-traveled. He’s also got more issues than Vogue. Emmy looks after Ben on photo shoots, but she refuses to become another one of his lusting groupies. Ben finds Emmy’s refreshingly real attitude to be surprisingly attractive.
Against a backdrop of the most fashionable cities in the world, casual flirting turns into an illicit affair, but when Ben’s twisted past is revealed, and the bitter Fiona catches wind of their relationship, their careers and hearts are threatened.
My Thoughts:
ARC courtesy of Atria Books, via Netgalley, in
exchange for an honest review.
Kendall Ryan is one of my favorite authors and I have loved
everything I’ve read by her. Imagine my
excitement when I received an ARC for her newest book! I couldn’t wait to read it and now that it’s
over – I want more!
While reading this book and after it ended, I was reminded
of the same feelings I had when I read Fifty Shades of Grey. It was intense, it was smoking hot (one of
the hottest books I’ve read in a while), and it was impossible to put
down. I loved everything about Emmy
& Ben! I was immersed into the world
of modeling – something I was completely unfamiliar with. It was refreshing to read a book with a totally
different storyline than I’ve read in a while.
Sexy, romantic, and edgy – Kendall pushed my limits in this book. **SPOILER** I am normally completely
against any storyline that includes a ménage/threesome – but somehow Kendall did
the impossible - taking me out of my comfort zone. And it was hot. **END SPOILER**
Emerson (Emmy) is your perfect relatable heroine. A sweet southern belle from Tennessee, she is
living her dream of working for a modeling agency, despite her insecurities
about fitting into the glamour of the business, and dealing with a horrible
wench of a boss.
Then there’s Ben.
Intense, mysterious, beautiful, sexy – he’s every woman’s fantasy. As the agency’s top model, Emmy ends up
spending more time around him, while trying not to succumb to his charms. But it’s impossible not to fall for him when
they have an undeniable chemistry. Emmy
starts to realize there is so much more to Ben than meets the eye, and despite
her brain telling her not to get too close, she’s mesmerized by this beautiful
broken man.
This book takes you on a roller coaster of emotions as you
watch Emmy and Ben’s relationship grow.
And there is just enough angst and suspense to keep you on edge. I only wish the next two books were already
out! Kendall Ryan has done it again – another must read!
