At twenty-five, Wren Cooper knows exactly what she wants: a job writing for a successful blog, to work with her best friend, and to snag the hottie she’s crushed on since she was a teen.

The problem? He’s her boss.

Being the city’s most eligible bachelor and CEO of the wildly popular blog, OurGen, shouldn’t be that hard for Wilder Owens. When a sexy, smart-mouthed young woman from his past accepts a role at his firm, he discovers being the boss isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

There’s no denying the chemistry between Wilder and Wren. If only Wilder could get past his own self-imposed “no dating employees” rule and Wren could relax and finally admit to her feelings after all this time. Can they stop arguing long enough to see what’s right in front of them?

This was my first time reading m.m. clem and I thought this book was pretty freakin' hilarious! Wren, bless her heart, is always mortified by the things that inadvertently spill out of her mouth, yet she still can't help her lack of filter. Of course it doesn't exactly help things that she's been crushing on her boss for umpteen years, but there it is. Wren seems to be an amalgamation of personalities; sometimes she's shy, she definitely lacks a filter, but given the right circumstances she's got a spitfire persona that comes out, usually it's aimed towards Wilder. Their interactions were all over the place, but in the best way because we know how she feels about him from the start, but he's a bit of mystery when it comes to what he thinks and feels about Wren (at least at the start); we see his inner thoughts about her changing and I couldn't wait to see how their interactions and relationship would change over the course of the book. And I have to say that the date articles Wren wrote for the blog were mostly hilarious, a few that were completely cringeworthy and a couple of sweet ones. I'm looking forward to reading the next book in the series. 

m.m. clem lives in a small town in the heart of Indiana with her husband, 3 bad ass kids, and her dog Leela. She spends most of her time hauling said bad ass kids to dance practices, band practices, and club meetings. When she’s not being a slave to everyone else’s schedule, you can find her sleeping, binging on Netflix, and losing hours of her life on social media.

m.m. is addicted to iced tea and has the mouth of a well-educated sailor. She also has a huge empathetic heart. She’s quirky and has a strange/dry sense of humor too. Sarcasm is definitely her second language.
