In this sexy and entertaining multicultural romance, two office rivals work out their differences to forge a lasting love. Debut author Sarah Smith pulls it off perfectly. A skilled forger, Emmie Echavarre. She must be in order to survive as one of the few female workers at Nuts & Bolts, a power tool firm where the majority of the employees are stern, powerful men. She is incredibly tough from nine to five, Monday through Friday, the complete contrast of her laid-back actual personality. She doesn't have to pretend to anything, right? Tate Rasmussen, a coworker, is detested by her. Since the first day they met, Tate has been antagonistic toward her. He responded to Emmie's cordial greetings and frequent attempts to get to know him only with scowls and curt one-word responses. Unfortunately, she can't help but ogle his Thor-like biceps. Things get hot when Tate and Emmie are made to collaborate on a charitable construction project. Tate's hard exterior is beginning to reveal a sensitive heart to Emmie, but it will take more than a few encouraging words to let her forget the past and believe what they have is genuine.In this sexy and entertaining multicultural romance, two office rivals work out their differences to forge a lasting love.
