Badass Bloggettes: *** BLOG TOUR AND REVIEW *** KING OF WALL STREET by Louise Bay

Social Butterfly PR is proud to present the release of King of Wall Street by Louise Bay

Synopsis:

AN AMBITIOUS BOMBSHELL IS ABOUT TO BRING THE KING OF WALL STREET TO HIS KNEES. I keep my two worlds separate. At work, I’m King of Wall Street. The heaviest hitters in Manhattan come to me to make money. They do whatever I say because I’m always right. I’m shrewd. Exacting. Some say ruthless. At home, I’m a single dad trying to keep his fourteen year old daughter a kid for as long as possible. If my daughter does what I say, somewhere there’s a snowball surviving in hell. And nothing I say is ever right. When Harper Jayne starts as a junior researcher at my firm, the barriers between my worlds begin to dissolve. She’s the most infuriating woman I’ve ever worked with. I don’t like the way she bends over the photocopier—it makes my mouth water. I hate the way she’s so eager to do a good job—it makes my dick twitch. And I can’t stand the way she wears her hair up exposing her long neck. It makes me want to strip her naked, bend her over my desk and trail my tongue all over her body. If my two worlds are going to collide, Harper Jayne will have to learn that I don't just rule the boardroom. I’m in charge of the bedroom, too.

Oh yes! I’m so happy King of Wall Street is the next on my reading list. It is just what the doctor ordered to bring me out of my book funk. King of Wall Street has great characters, a lovely romance, a little angst, in other words, an all-around good read.

This is the story of Max King and Harper Jayne. Max is a force to reckon with on Wall Street. He is a workaholic building his business During the day he is focused on his business, but at the end of the workday, he is a mystery. Amanda, Max’s daughter, owns his heart.

Max has women in his life when he needs sex but keeps that part of his life away from his family. He doesn’t form relationships at all. Enter Harper Jayne, a junior researcher, who intends to make a name for herself on Wall Street. Her entire college career is spent building her resume to interest King & Associates. She admires Max from afar and wants him as a mentor. Unfortunately, once she is hired Harper finds out Max King is a jerk.

There is so many reasons to recommend King of Wall Street. The story looks at the single parent situation from the male point of view. The relationship Max has with Pandora, his daughter’s mother is an adult one with Amanda as the focus of everything they do. Both sets of grandparents are in her life without conflict. They all focus on Amanda and make sure she is raised in a loving environment.

Harper comes from the exact opposite. Her father never wants her. He abandoned her mother and Harper only dropping in her life on random occasions. Harper’s father disappoints and hurts her deeply by not showing up at school events, graduation, or anything that is important to a young girl. When she graduated from college, her father didn’t offer a job even though he offered all of her half-brother's positions.

King of Wall Street is told from alternating points of view to give the reader a look at the heart and soul of the two main characters. They both are trying to deal with the attraction they feel while they are attempting to remain professional. The interactions between Max and his daughter, Amanda as sweet and sometimes funny. The poor man is trying to come to terms with the fact that his baby is now a teenager and interested in boys.

Harper reveals her secrets to her friend Grace. She is a good friend and doesn’t silver coat her responses. She is upfront with Harper and lets her know when she is unreasonable. Grace is the kind of friend we all need, a little flakey but there when needed.

I highly recommend King of Wall Street. There are a lot of feel-good moments, convincing character growth, and laughs too. With every book I read from Louise Bay, I become a bigger fan. This is a must read, and I highly recommend it.
