It was typical for him to find her personality annoying. She got on his nerves and wormed her way to his heart. Aya tagged her boss as off-limits, made him her unwilling confidant, annoyed him every work day, but it's undeniable that she learned so much from him, turned her life around and her view on a lot of things. When she found out his true feelings for her, would she be able to convince him to let it out? Note about the series: Each book can be read as stand-alone. Maybe not Book 1 about Lee and Oliver, if you'd rather know what happened afterwards, but to me, the resolve is enough as an ending for Book 1. That could be my own opinion, though. Book 3 is set much later so it could be read as stand-alone, totally apart from Book 2.
