Goodreads Summary:
No one ever said Gayle Lindley’s first job would be a killer.

Fresh out of college, Gayle’s career path should follow the yellow brick road straight to the top. Thanks to a menial errand gone wrong, a wayward tongue, and a randy supervisor who won’t take ‘no’ for an answer, Gayle’s stuck in corporate hell.

Discovering a company secret only turns up the heat.

The one part of her life not going down in flames is her friendship with the gorgeous but intensely private, Jon Cripps. Jon would make the perfect consolation prize for Gayle’s pity party if dating a co-worker wasn’t career suicide. Then again, with all Gayle has been through, maybe falling in love is the lucky break she needs.

Hitting the cool sheets with Jon soothes her mind and body, but it also enrages whoever’s behind the smokescreen she’s uncovered at work. Someone is willing to kill to protect their secrets, and Gayle and Jon are the targets.

With both her heart and livelihood at stake, Gayle’s early career-limiting moves could turn into life-terminating ones


My Review:
An awesome, engaging read. This was a great book. This book was the right mix of mystery,suspense and romance. I loved delving into the world of accounting through the eyes of Gayle. This isn't the type of book I would normally read but I'm so glad I did as I loved it. Gayle was such a character to adore. I loved her willingness to put herself out there, her fight to take on her harrasers, and her ability to do it all while falling in love with John. I loved that Gayle didn't let anyone talk down to her and she knew just how to work people and get things done. It was so cute to see such a fireball considering she was so little. This book was good as the author explained the accounting world in terms the average person would understand. It felt like since Gayle and John were leading the story it made more sense. Gayle and John's hijinks along the way as they try to solve the mystery were hilarous at some points. I found myself just laughing out loud at some of it. John was such a great match for Gayle. They complemented each other so well and played off of each other well. The chemistry between them was amazing too. You could just tell they would end up together and sizzle once they did. Overall this was a great read and I would highly recommend it to others.
