On Location

The hot gentleman on the subway is where it started for Alia Dunn. After she almost has a one-night stand with him, he ghosts her. Yet he haunts her when he becomes the production assistant on one of her dream productions for her travel network, but she's got bigger problems than Drew Irons on her set, and its name is Blaine, the host of her show.

Blaine is an alcoholic, and drug addict who can't get shit together in order to save his career as an actor. But stardom is nepotism, and he is cast as the host. Unsurprisingly, he sucks. Drew has to pretty much show him how it's done. And even though there's tension between the two, Alia is grateful for Drew. She becomes very grateful.

After a string of misunderstandings, Alia and Drew realize that both of them said things that they shouldn't have. There's an undeniable pull between them, and they decide to explore it. Under Alia's stringent rules, after all, she is his superior. Through their passion, more misunderstandings come to light, though Alia realizes she's falling for Drew, which scares the shit out of her. When Blaine messes things up big time again, tensions fly, and Alia must figure out what's real.

This book was awesome! One of the best books I've read in a while. I would give it like a 4.5 but alas, that's not possible. Alia had some trauma that made her act the way she does, sometimes cold but very protective of herself and those she loves. She's a well-rounded character, and it's super cool that she's a POC. And Drew was cool too, he had flaws but so did Alia, and he seemed genuinely so in love with her.

There was a good amount of sex in this book compared to most of the books that I read, but it wasn't bad! It was written well, not too over the top, it definitely solidified their romance and their attraction, and sometimes I feel like some books don't do that well, they just write sex to write it. It's pretty descriptive though so heads up if you're not into reading that sort of thing!

Overall, great book! Definitely recommend! Great writing and great characters!
