Book Review: Unlocking Her Boss's Heart by Christy McKellen

Unlocking Her Boss’s Heart is a slow burning Harlequin/ Mills and Boon romance written by Christy McKellen. Cara Winstone is the heroine. A happy go lucky, ever chipper Personal Assistant to her new boss, Max Firebrace, who is the complete opposite. He is still grieving the loss of his wife who died 18 months ago. 

Cara turns up on Max’s door step begging for a job or she will lose her flat, leave London and go home to her parents and admit her London dream is over. After losing her last PA job Cara is desperate and begs Max takes her on. He reluctantly does but remains closed off to Cara. Slowly her chirpy demeanour chips away at his dourness and the  pair grow closer will they get their HEA?

First published in 2016 this is an enjoyable read. Both the main characters are relatable and realistic. Grief can change a person but Cara was determined to help him find himself again. This book is shorter than your average romance but it didn’t affect the pacing of the book. I will probably reread in the future and read some more of the author’s books as I enjoyed her style of writing. 

I received this book via Netgalley and Mills and Boon in exchange for a honest review. I am a #MillsAndBoonInsider #netgalley #gifted
