Power Play by Tiffany Snow

23341854
THIS KIND OF BUSINESS CAN ONLY BE PERSONAL
Sage Reese lives for her job. More precisely, she lives for her debonair boss, Parker Andersen. Sage handles everything for Parker, even as she fantasizes about the one thing that isn't in her job description: him. But when a high-stakes account crosses the line from shady to deadly, a tough cop starts giving Sage the attention she wishes Parker would . . .

Detective Dean Ryker couldn't be more different from Parker. While Parker wears expensive suits like a second skin and drives a BMW, Ryker's uniform is leather jackets and jeans . . . and his ride of choice is a Harley. While Parker's sexiness is a reserved, slow burn, Ryker is completely upfront about what-and who-he's after. And Sage tops his list.

Now, as Ryker digs deeper into the dark side of Parker's business, Sage finds herself caught between two men: the one she's always wanted-and the one who makes her feel wanted like never before . . .
Tiffany Snow
A native of St. Louis, Missouri, Tiffany Snow earned degrees in Education and History from the University of Missouri-Columbia, before launching a career in Information Technology. After over a decade in IT, she switched careers to what she always dreamed of doing - writing. Tiffany is the author of romantic suspense novels such as the Kathleen Turner Series, which includes No Turning Back, Turn to Me and Turning Point. Since she's drawn to character-driven books herself, that's what she loves to write, and the guy always gets his girl. She feeds her love of books with avid reading, yet she manages to spare time and considerable affection for trivia, eighties hair bands, the St. Louis Cardinals, and Elvis. She and her husband have two daughters and one dog.
Review: I really enjoyed this book! Author Tiffany Snow really knows how to build passion between characters that builds and builds until you just can't stop reading. The story was left on a cliffhanger and I cannot wait to find out where the story goes. I highly recommend this - it's a real page turner.

The Fixer: The Naked Man by Jill Amy Rosenblatt

“Katerina—I need some help. Be a good girl and come over here and I’ll make it worth your while.” 

It’s an offer NYC college student Katerina Mills should refuse. But how can she? 

A desperate situation.... 

After ditching her cheating lover (and boss), she’s stuck in dead end temp jobs. Her dad just ditched her mom and his promise to pay Kat's college tuition bill. 

She has two weeks to come up with $14,000 or she's out of her apartment, out of school, and out of luck. 

A dangerous world.... 

Katerina falls into a job as a "fixer” for New York City's wealthy and privileged men. They have problems they need “fixed,” quick and on the QT, and they’re willing to pay. 

The rules are simple: collect the money, use your contacts, fix the problem. 

Kat's first job is easy: tail a shopaholic socialite wife. But who’s tailing Kat? 

Kat’s second job is not so easy: steal a VHS tape hidden in an antique chest. She can’t do it alone. To be a thief, she needs a thief: handsome, reclusive Alexander Winter to be exact. 

Kat soon learns the real rules for a fixer: there are no rules, there are no refunds. Get in. Get results. Get gone. 

As every step brings her closer to her goal and closer to danger, there’s one rule left for Katerina Mills to learn: once you’re in, there’s no getting out.
