✪ Office Mate ✪ Katie Ashley ✪ Blog Tour ✪





Thorn

From the first time I played army as a kid, the military has been my life. As an Airborne Major, Id led my men through two tours in Afghanistan. But when my father was elected president, I became an even greater target for the enemya prize for someone to take out. To ensure not only the safety of myself, but of my men, I got stripped of my cammies, shoved into an Armani suit, and placed into a management position at my fathers company. After years of trekking through the desert with an assault rifle, I was way out of my area of expertise, which my transition coordinator was more than happy to let me know on a daily, if not hourly basis. The brunette bombshell would be the death of me in more ways than one, especially since I hadnt been with a woman since my last deployment. Shes turning out to be one of the greatest foes Ive ever done battle with.

Isabel

In the backwoods Georgia town I was born in, you either married right out of high school or got the hell out of town. I chose the second and never looked back. After graduating top in my class, I started working for The Callahan Corporation. Fast forward five years and I was about to become the youngest female manager in the history of my department. And then all the blood, sweat, and tears Id put into my career were for nothing when the bosss billionaire son was handed my position on a silver platter. Not only that, I was expected to help transition him into the job that was supposed to be mine. Sure, hes easy on the eyes with his chiseled good-looks and impossibly built physique, but Im not going to let that distract me. I hope soldier boy is good at military strategy because sabotage is the name of the game Ill be playing.




ARC Received for an honest review
I adored Barrett in Running Mate (and still do in this one), however I freaking LOVE Thorn in Office Mate.

 Isabel and Thorn's story is one fueled by lust, hate and sooo much sexual tension you can cut it with a knife.

They don't meet in the best of circumstances, so along with all the UST there is so much resentment between them that at times you couldn't be sure if the would kiss or kill each other!

Isabel gets her revenge on Thorn in laugh out loud ways, and even as you know they are wrong, you can't help but fist pump when they happen.

It is wonderful journey as hate turns to friendship and who knows, maybe much much more.

It was great to get a little glimpse of Barrett and Addison and where they are at now.
Sweet, tender, funny and drama/angst free, Ms Ashley has given us a lovely story that I read in one afternoon.
I can't wait to see what she brings us next.
