There’s a thin line between love and hate . . . and it cuts right through the middle of their office.
Bad boys? They run right over good girls like Georgina Keller. But after a confidence-shattering breakup, she’s determined not to let anyone at her new workplace push her around—least of all the brooding creative director, a “bad boy of publishing” who’s made it clear she’s enemy #1.
Sebastian Quinn’s taste for fast cars, late nights, and beautiful women may have gotten him to the top of a leading New York magazine, but the reputation that made him is suddenly threatening to end his career.
Georgina can help Modern Man shed its bad reputation, but in order to do that, she’ll have to start at the top—and no amount of rakish charm or inconvenient attraction will distract her.
Because if Sebastian gets her right where he wants her, it means she’s going down.
Right Where I Want You was slow burn and just didn’t really do it for me. I finished reading it a few days ago and honestly all that I remembered at first was that ‘mahogany’ was referenced several times and each time I read I giggled thinking of Effie Trinket in the Hunger Games trilogy.
Right Where I Want You was not only slow burn, but slow for me period. It took me days to get into and even then I had to keep pushing myself along to get the story read. All this time they are fighting each other and then it seemed like once they figured out it wasn’t really hate all along, everything happened at warp speed.
The highlight of this entire book for and what moved it from a two star to a three star read was Sebastian’s best friend, Justin. If it wasn’t for him this book would have fallen completely flat for me. He injected much needed personality into Right Where I Want You.
Although, Sebastian was sweet and caring once he decided to open up to Georgie, it was like pulling teeth for him and then Georgie, she couldn’t decide who she was, I realize that her ex did a number on her mentally, because I’m pretty sure we were reminded just about every time it was her POV, but man. She needed to get over it. She was even seeing a therapist for it.
Right Where I Want You made me itchy with anticipation and sadly ended up falling flat for me. If Justin gets a story though, I will be all over that!
