Synopsis: 

His new hire has a secret...
As far as Nina Beaumont is concerned, money ruins everything. Leave it to her wealthy family to screw up her professional life and her personal life. When she crashes and her car sinks, sending her identification and all her belongings spiraling into the watery abyss, Nina sees her chance to escape. And stumbles into a job with the hottest man she’s ever met…as his maid. Between running an inn, caring for his grandmother, and trying to keep the dirty-dealing Beaumont Corporation from stealing his land, Joe Farina's plate is full. He doesn't have time for romantic entanglements—especially not with the suspiciously bad maid he just hired, no matter how much he needs her…both in and out of his bed. Screwing with her life is one thing, but Nina’s not about to let her family screw with Joe. That is, if she doesn’t lose him when he finds out who she really is.

Review: 



This is my first read by Coleen Kwan and I know I will be reading many more to come. I had this book read in a few hours. I could not put it down once i started. It was fabulously written. Loved everything about this story. Nina Beaumont is the daughter of a Billionaire and shes tired of her life. She may have grown up without a care in the world but now as an adult she doesn't want her name and fathers money to control her professional life or even her personal. While driving she think up a plan to go incognito somewhere for a short time and not deal with the riches of her last name. Fate intervenes and she ends up swerving to miss a duck and her BMW goes right into a river the only think Nina comes out with is her phone. She realizes this is her chance to put her plan in motion since her money, credit cards and ID are at the bottom of the river.

Joe is the owner and operator of the Inn that is Hartley. When Nina shows up he thinks she is the temp that was hired to be the maid. Nina plays along with it even though Joe never gives her the time to tell him shes not really the temp the agency sent to be his maid. Nina cannot get over the fact that Joe is drop dead gorgeous but she loves that no one knows her true identity. Joe is trying to keep his 2nd property a run down house away from the Beaumont Corporation who want to tear it down and build a new hotel/resort that is not needed.

Things get heated between Joe and Nina but will they last with the secret Nina is keeping?

There is so much emotion in this book. One minute you are laughing the next you are pissed off at one the characters and ready to throw your kindle thinking it will do anything. there was even a few moments that my heart broke.

What happens when Joe finally learns Nina's true identity? Will he be able to forgive her or will her lies be the end of them?

Excerpt: 


Still simmering dangerously, he marched over to the bar where Nina was sliding her tray across to Vince.
“Having fun?” he bit out.
She spun around at his sharp tone. Vince raised his eyebrows at him, but all Joe’s attention was focused on the maddening woman in front of him.
“I am,” she smoothly replied.
Nina was in the black denim jeans and lemon sweater he’d seen her in many times before, but despite that and the fact she’d been working several hours, she’d never seemed more luscious and irresistible. Why was it so hard to stick to his guns?
“Things are winding down,” he said. “Why don’t you quit early?”
She raised her eyebrows. “But my shift doesn’t end for another hour.”
Another hour of watching her strut around the place giving all the male customers something to pant over? His blood vessels wouldn’t survive that. “I’ll cover for you. You can have an early night. Don’t worry, I’ll still pay you for the full shift.”
She tapped her fingernails on the bar counter. “I’m not worried.”
“No, nothing’s worrying you today, apparently.”
A muscle twitched in her cheek. “That’s right. I’m peachy keen.”
“I can see that. So can everyone else. Especially that group of guys you were just batting your eyelashes at.”
Blue fire sparked in her eyes as she leaned toward him. “Jealous? Would you prefer I bat my eyelashes at you?”
Her scent filled his nostrils. She smelled of honeysuckle and hand-cut potato wedges and a hint of beer—a knockout combination that made him want to pull her to his chest. The force of his urges made him dizzy. He glanced about, wondering if anyone was witnessing his turmoil, and saw Vince had retreated to the other end of the bar counter, where he busied himself polishing a glass as if his life depended on it.
“Look.” Joe jerked his chin. “We’ve scared Vince away.”
You’ve scared him away. I haven’t done anything.”
“The hell you haven’t. Ever since yesterday you’ve been flouncing around in front of me, wiggling your ass in my face.”
“Wiggling!” Several people looked up. Nina flung down her dishcloth, lowering her voice as she said, “Why would I wiggle and flounce at you? You’ve made it clear you don’t want my ass anywhere near your face.”
Blood thudded in his ears. Maybe holding back wasn’t such a good idea after all. For a start, it was bad for his blood pressure. And how could he concentrate on anything if he constantly had to fight his urges? And battle his raging jealousy every time Nina so much as smiled at another guy? If this frustration continued for much longer, he’d explode, and probably at the worst possible time. Better to find a safety valve and release some pressure, right?
He butted in and shoved his elbow on the counter next to her, pressing his forearm against hers. She let out a little gasp as her flesh quivered against his. He was quivering, too, the contact with her skin firing every brain synapse. Her blue eyes, big as saucers, sucked him in.
Yeah, he needed that safety valve real bad right now.
Joe bent his head toward Nina’s. “Meet me out back in half an hour,” he whispered, “and I’ll show you where to put your ass.”
