Bailey and the CEO: A Corporate Love Story (A Better Man, Book 1) by Amy Q. Barker – Review by Audrie Harrington

Bailey and the CEO: A Corporate Love Story by Amy Q. Barker
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this book! It is an alternating point of view, but not chapter by chapter, more like by section. Bailey, one of the main characters, is in her late 30s, a widow, raising two teenage girls, and is one of the VPs at her company. She is likeable and so real. She is doing really well in work and life until a few brushes with the CEO of the company. He is handsome and has brushed by her and sent sparks through her body. They end up on the same plane and sitting next to each other. Bailey was rushed and almost missed the plane and then was overwhelmed and nervous to be sitting next to Fox, the CEO. Fox is a divorced dad of two teenagers and spends a lot of time at work and the rest with his boys, but Bailey has caught his eye on more than one occasion. Fox is handsome and also a really likable character, a good man. Bailey starts to relax when talking about work and they enjoy talking for the two hour flight. When they are walking in the airport Fox asks her out, clumsily because he hasn’t dated much since his divorce. They both have so many questions: Will they be allowed to date? Will dating be worth the trouble and work it will take with HR? Will they both be able to overcome some issues from their past? They decide to give it a go in secret and the sparks fly. This book is more romance than spice and was a quick page turner. The author is working on a series and I can’t wait to read more!
