Ana Huang

He'd never wanted anyone enough to chase them...until he met her. Charming, easygoing, and rich beyond belief, Xavier Castillo has the world at his fingertips. He also has no interest in taking over his family's empire (much to his father's chagrin), but that hasn't stopped women from throwing themselves at him...unless the woman in question is his publicist. Nothing brings him more joy than riling her up, but when a tragedy forces them closer than ever, he must grapple with the uncertainty of his future--and the realization that the only person immune to his charms is the only one he truly wants. *** Cool, intelligent, and ambitious, Sloane Kensington is a high-powered publicist who's used to dealing with difficult clients. However, none infuriate--or tempt--her more than a certain billionaire heir, with his stupid dimples and laid-back attitude. She may be forced to work with him, but she'll never fall for him...no matter how fast he makes her heart beat or how thoughtful he is beneath his party persona. He's her client, and that's all he'll ever be. Right?

"This book definitely isn't my favorite Ana Huang book, I don't think anything could ever dethrone Twisted Games, but it was still soooooo good! Grumpy x sunshine, forced proximity, opposites attract, billionaire, dual POV! Xavier and Sloane are both very different from Ana's usual main characters, but it was honestly kind of a refreshing change. Xavier is a total golden retriever boyfriend, and Sloan is without a doubt the black cat girlfriend. Despite their differences they're so amazing together! The plot was fun and fast paced, and the romance was swoon worthy! I also loved getting to see some of the characters from Ana's other books! 10/10 would recommend! "

"“ in a world of black and white, she was my kaleidoscope “ XAVIER CASTILLO. THE MAN YOU ARE. I would have folded so fast for that man. This book was so good. A bit different from the rest of the series, but so good. Can’t wait for Vuk’s story. "

"FINALLY. Ana Huang’a books hit different. A book that is relatable to me. I MISS THE TWISTED SERIES AND THE IF SERIES. Seeing old character was so comfy. At the point make a whole reunion!"

"It was good and I love all Ana’s books but I just kinda get tired of the repetition in them! I feel like her new one in this series (coming spring 2025) will be better as it gave us an insite at the end of this book! This one was better plot wise and definitely less smutty than the other books written by Ana not my favorite but not my least favorite overall a good read but if something was to happen to my memory it wouldn’t be the first one my mind would go to to re read "
