OUR REVIEW:

Man in Love picks up exactly where Man in Charge leaves off--so if you haven't read the first one, pick that one up first. 


Like many Laurelin Paige duets, this novel comes with the drama and excitement. For many of the first chapters, it felt like these poor characters could not escape the people and situations intent on keeping them apart. Between Tessa's situation with her boss and her deception and Scott's situation with his family expectations, it felt like they'd have a steep hill to climb to get to their HEA. 


But never fear, Laurelin Paige only makes her characters (and readers, lol) suffer for a little while before she offers relief through all sorts of fun sexcapades and other things. So sure, the situation felt bleak for a hot minute but that was immediately followed up by several hotttttt minutes and a solution that made for an especially happy happily ever after.


A final note, that I think I failed to point out in my review of book one, but Paige pointed out in her acknowledgements--she quotes her editor Erica Russikoff about how this duet may not be considered light as it is a "duet about social status, debilitating disease, and ethnic prejudice". And those points are things that feel more liked features that made this novel more than the typical CEO romance. It made it interesting and I really like that the characters aren't the same as every other character in every other romance. 



  Blurb: Scott Sebastian is a liar. Fitting, since I'm a liar too. Yet there's no place for me in his glittering world of half-truths. With all our secrets in the open, I should stop trying. What I've learned should send me running far away. I can’t keep pining for a man in love if I’m not the woman he’s in love with. But it's not that easy to escape the Sebastians. I already knew they owned this city. Now I'll find out if they also own their son.       About the Author: With millions of books sold worldwide, Laurelin Paige is a New York Times, Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestselling Author. She is a sucker for a good romance and gets giddy anytime there’s kissing, much to the embarrassment of her three daughters. Her husband doesn’t seem to complain, however. When she isn’t reading or writing sexy stories, she’s probably singing, watching Killing Eve or Letterkenny, or dreaming of Michael Fassbender. She's also a proud member of Mensa International though she doesn't do anything with the organization except use it as material for her bio. She is represented by Rebecca Friedman.
