Marble isn’t the only thing that’s hard at this museum.
His body is as chiseled as Adonis. His lips are as sculpted as David. And his ego is the size of the Guggenheim.
You know the type—wolfish smile and the gravity of a black hole. The kind of man who sucks all the air from the room the second he enters it. My cocky boss thinks this internship was wasted on me, and he doesn’t hesitate to let me know.
But he’s wrong, and I’m going to prove it to him. If I can stay away from his devil lips, that is. Lips that cut me down and kiss me in the same breath, leaving me certain he’s on a mission to ruin my life.
And maybe my heart.
I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
I really enjoyed the message in Piece of Work, it was inspiring to see Rin come into her own and she discovered who she was and truly become a force to reckon with. I loved what a little red lipstick inspired her and how it helped bring her confidence in her brain forth into her appearance. That the clothes and make-up didn’t change who she was, but rather helped her out of her shell along with her friends and Court.
“I didn’t think I wanted to hide anymore. I wanted to be seen.”
There many humorous parts in Piece of Work, but I feel the story is more inspirational than comical. I was frustrated with Court for the vast majority of the book, because he was jeopardizing more than he realized and that made him a little to selfish in my book. He took chances when he shouldn’t have.
Court and Rin’s chemistry and compatibility was off the charts and even though it frustrated me, I still loved how they couldn’t resist touching each other. Not only was sexual tension hot and intense, but I loved how they also exercised their minds together.
The beginning and the end of Piece of work was magnificent, but the middle really kind of dragged for me. The pacing felt off and I can’t really tell you why, because it was necessary for character development. I really hope that we can get more from this cast of characters. I would really enjoy seeing Rin’s come into their own, just as Rin did.
