I bought this book during the one of the Stuff Your Kindle Days, I liked the cover and the blurb. However, I wanted more and still hate the pregnancy trope.  

This book has two points of view. The first is Tim Stag and he has it all under control. He's taken charge of his family ever since his mother’s death, raising his brothers while finishing college and law school early. Now he runs an empire, and nothing will stand in his way as he looks to expand Stag Law. Until he met Alice Peterson. The new corporate chef is supposed to give his company an edge, but Alice is anything but corporate. Wild and spicy as her food, Alice sweeps into Stag Law and drives Tim to distraction, and he isn’t used to distraction. The second point of view is Alice Peterson, and she has just finished culinary school and managed to get a job within the first week of finishing. She is determined to start her career and to support her family who still live in the family home. However, from day one she’s got the hots for the boss, but she determined to not make a move, until it all boils over. Now she must make sure she keeps her professional and personal life separate. 

Juniper and Amy were the saving grace in this book, both were like, you both need to talk to each other instead of ignoring each other and in Tim’s case getting blackout drunk and in Alice’s case acting like she isn’t pregnant.  

Tim is a walking red flag who used his power dynamic to try and push Alice around. Just because she was pregnant does not mean she has to move in with you or get married, like what year are we in 1860s? I hated the insta-love, there was zero chemistry between them. Like at all. It was just first meet, sex, inner dilemma, conflict, pregnant, conflict, resolution. There was no slow build up, or even a few conversations before Tim started acting like a hormonal teenager. Alice had more of a build-up, with the fact that she was worried about banging the boss, but still thought he was goodlooking. The only time these two communicated was when they were having sex but besides that, they didn’t really talk useless it as to do with their mummy issues. I would have loved to have seen more of the family dynamic, like with the Stag Brothers and Alice’s brother got mentioned a few times but that was about it. I would have just loved to see more of the family dynamic. I still hate the surprise pregnancy trope and I feel like this one was done a bit poor, like surely if you do something on someone’s phone like muting an alarm or reading a text, you would tell that person and then Tim was pissed that she was pregnant like are you kidding me? 

I wanted more within the 220 pages we got like chemistry and family dynamic and instead we got unwanted pregnancy, abuse of power and a walking red flag.
