Cocktail
waitress Sophie Dalton doesn't exactly have a life plan. She's perfectly happy
being everyone's favorite party girl. But when a Las Vegas bachelorette party
goes awry and an uptight businessman mistakes Sophie for a prostitute . . .
well, Sophie wonders if it's time to reevaluate her priorities. Swearing off
her thigh-high boots for good, Sophie slinks back home with damaged pride-and a
jackpot of a hangover.
Yet what
happens in Vegas doesn't always stay there. On a trip to Seattle to open a new
office, Grayson Wyatt meets his latest employee-who turns out to be the same
woman he recently called a hooker. Wealthy and gorgeous, Gray is a man used to
getting what he wants. And it doesn't take long to figure out that smart,
sassy, sexy Sophie is everything he's been looking for. As their late nights at
the office turn into hot morning-afters, they realize their Vegas
misunderstanding may lead to the real thing . . .

Cute story with the underlying themes of opposites attract as well as not judging a book.
Sophie is a definite people person, and everyone she comes into contact with seems to become an instant friend; Gray on the other hand, is Mr. Roboto personified. And their first meeting is nothing short of a horror story, but one that eventually serves as a wake-up call for Sophie. So imagine Sophie's distress when the gentleman her sister brings for the weekly family dinner is none other than the same man she encountered in Vegas just a few weeks prior. Through a somewhat predictable turn of events, Sophie eventually goes to work for Gray at the company where he is the new CEO. There's plenty of sexual tension between Sophie and Gray, but he refuses to acknowledge the depth of his feelings for her, especially since Sophie looks so much like his ex-fiance.
This book, while enjoyable, could have been better; we know how Sophie feels being compared to her older sister all the time, but I would liked to have known if Gray has always been that surly and uncomfortable around people. Although I liked seeing him loosen up and actually act like a normal human at the company picnic. There's also some angst that happens (isn't that why we read books like this, for the angst and drama?). Sophie and Gray aren't the only ones who have to figure out their relationship, the side story is pretty entertaining and I can't wait to read the next book in the series.

Layne is a snarky cynic with a serious weakness for happily ever afters.
Marrying
her high school sweetheart was a good start. *cue Disney soundtrack.*
But Lauren
wanted all romance, all the time.
Now she
writes fictional happy endings, and considers her job done well if you swoon
while reading her books. Don't worry. You will.
Once upon a
time she lived in a Manhattan high-rise, but now she's on the laid-back train
in the Seattle area. If you ever find yourself in Issaquah, she'll
probably buy you a drink. Maybe.
