Marrying the Boss
by Megan Kelly
Reviewed by Judy Schmitt
In her debut novel,
MARRYING THE BOSS, Megan Kelly deftly blends emotions we all can
recognize-rivalry, protectiveness, disappointment, and respect-to create a
portrait of two people who find love amid a boardroom battle.
For years Mark Collins has worked at his adoptive grandfather's side, eager
to prove he is worthy of taking over the family business. When Lionel passes
away, Mark believes his position in the company is secure. . . . But then he
hears the terms of his grandfather's will. The Lion has arranged a
competition for the CEO spot, pitting Mark against an outsider-Lionel's own
illegitimate daughter.
Leanne Fairbanks wants nothing to do with Lionel's contest. He never
acknowledged her as his daughter while he was alive, and he left her
mother-whom he claimed to love-out of his will entirely. So she has no
interest in competing against Mark Collins . . . until Mark makes it clear
he doesn't consider her skilled enough to win the contest anyway.
And so the games begin! As Mark and Leanne vie for the company's top spot,
they find their emotions stirred by more than just a competitive spirit.
When it comes to writing witty dialogue, complicated characters, and strong
family dynamics, Megan Kelly proves she is already a master! I'll eagerly be
awaiting her next release!
