4 STARS!
Kicking off the new Love And Lipstick series, Kat Cantrell delves into the beauty world with CEO Cassandra Claremont, head of a thriving business she runs with her three best friends from college. It shows promise of being an exciting “girl power” rendition of when power finds love in the world of successful business women.
Cass is under enough stress as it is trying to track down the leak of some crucial information, when in walks the man she never got over, Gage Branson. She is not happy to have her body betray her at the very sight of him again.
Gage is a business competitor these days, but was a good friend, mentor and lover to her in college … until he ended things with no explanation, leaving her with a broken heart. He now wants something that only she can help him with … and she thinks he’s up to no good.
Will she find that he’s the culprit in her problem, or is he as innocent as he says he is? As their desire reignites and leads them to tempt fate, will there be a happy ending possible? And when an unexpected addition to Gage’s life is thrown into the picture, what will he decide to do?
