The Innovator by Nadia Han
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Natalie Chapelle is more than she appears. Natalie is working for the city of Providence, trying to learn information about a building that her father left to her when he passed away, though she is not sure why he would have done so. What Natalie hopes nobody figures out is that the background that got her the job is all a lie, and she is really the heir and designer for a major fashion label in Europe, a family owned company called LaRue. When Natalie first meets Grayson Wu, an architect that is helping the city with a new project, sparks fly as the battle of wills and tempers begins nearly immediately. Both are attracted to one another, but it’s not until they are parent trapped into spending time alone together in a secluded location that they finally allow themselves to give into the lust they feel. Both of them are dealing with a lot of stress and pressure outside of the project they are working together on for the city, but they start a relationship that helps them to both feel more grounded and happy than they have in a long time. When Grayson’s outside business becomes more dangerous, he pushes her away to try and protect her, going as far as sending her back to Paris and her family (with some help) to try and protect her. Once the danger has passed, Grayson hopes to be able to convince Natalie to forgive him. This is a good quick read. It is part of a series, but can be read as a standalone, with plenty of sex and intrigue to keep you reading.
