About the Book:

FBI Agent Jude Camden handles every aspect of his job with by-the-book professionalism. There's no reason why his latest assignment—which calls for him to pose as the boyfriend of perfumer Gemma Clare—should be any different.

Except Gemma is different. She's creative, bold, and feisty. And as soon as she meets Jude, she wants to loosen him up, wrinkle his perfect shirts, and test every ounce of his towering self-control.

The FBI has an iron-clad rule against romances between those working together on operations. Jude's never met a rule he didn't respect. But adhering to this one is going to be tough because, as time goes by, he finds Gemma more and more irresistible.

Buckle up! It's going to be a rocky road.


My Rating & Thoughts:    


The beginning was hilarious, I loved how Gemma and Jude first meet. I found myself very quickly caring about each of them and enjoying their interactions. I was intrigued in the mystery Gemma is trying to solve for her great-grandmother. Each time the perspective switched to Fiona I was annoyed, I did not care about her and just wanted more of Gemma and Jude. Despite not being captivated by the reason for Gemma and Jude's interaction, I kept reading because of the characters and their dynamic. Their contrasting qualities complemented each other well, and the discussions of faith between them felt natural. I really enjoyed spending time with these two characters and watching the relationship develop. Overall, I found this book more enjoyable than book one.
