Review: Boss I Love to Hate by Mia Kayla


Title: Boss, I Love To Hate
Author: Mia Kayla
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: April 25, 2019




Dear Mr. Brisken,
How do I hate you?
Let me count the ways.
I hate your smug, sexy millionaire face.
 I hate your cocky, skirt chasing, playboy ways.
 I hate working as your secretary—but, I love the pay. It almost makes dealing with you worth it.
I hate how my friends call you a BILF, when really BILK (Boss I’d like to kill) is more appropriate.
I hate that I need you to be my date for my best friend’s wedding because my ex-boyfriend, the King of Heartbreakers, and his new busty blonde girlfriend will be in attendance.
But mostly, I hate how once the charade is over, I might not hate you at all...it was so much easier when you were the Boss I Love To Hate




Review:

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

A love a book that can take me by surprise. When I was reading chapter 1, I thought that Sonia was going to be my person and it would take me a while to like Brad, but as it turned out, I liked Brad more than I liked Sonia. To be honest, I got the impression that the author wanted to write a different kind of hero than the average one, but she decided to go with the most used and (most hated for me) way by making him a manwhore. Throughout the book, we are reminded that Brad has slept with many women including most if not all of his secretaries, which was not to my liking. In chapter one, we even see him in the bathroom after he did the deed with another woman. But also in chapter one, he admits that he wants a happy marriage and family. So one hand he is the kind of person who sleeps around and on the other, he is looking for a happily ever after, which are opposites. At least he said that he was dating Olivia for her personality. Later on, we see a Brad who is not a douche and loves his nieces like they were his own kids. He is the cool uncle. And I fell for that guy. He is caring and loving and he knows how to plan a date. 

Sonia, on the other hand, seemed a little cold and too hung up on her ex. She just couldn't let go and move on like a normal person, which was something that didn't sit well with me. Another thing that made me not like her so much was the whole sanitary pad scene. I understand why she didn't want to help, but as a woman, I am judging her, because we should always help each other. I can't give more details, but when you read the book or if you already have, please tell me if I am too harsh or if I was right. It helped as a plot device, but I did not like that kind of attitude. 

In the end, Brad and his nieces are the ones who stole my heart. That man was a great hero and I wasn't expecting that. I liked how Sonia's feelings for him were slowly changing and went from hate to love.Their relationship had a nice development and it was one of the book's strongest points. 





"One of the best office/enemies to lover books I’ve read. Brad and Sonia were so cute! I loved their banter, I loved the way they were with their families. I loved everything about this book. Addictive, funny and so amazing!" - Early Reviewer

"Perfectly written, unique, wonderfulness. I will be rereading this over and over again. One of my top ten books ever! Mia Kayla knocked this one out of the park, she left me with more feelings than I knew what to do with. The ultimate book hangover ( I mean hangover like I couldn't get over it or stop thinking about it), nothing could compare. I had a really hard time reading anything else after this book because it was just that good!" - Early Reviewer
Mia Kayla is a New Adult/Contemporary Romance writer who lives in Illinois. She is the wife to the husband of the year and mommy to three unbelievable cute little girls who have multiplied her grey hairs. 


In her free time she loves reading romance novels, jamming to boy bands, catching up on celebrity gossip and designing flowers for weddings.
Most of the time, she can be caught on the train with her nose in a book sporting a cheeky grin because the main characters finally get their happily-ever-after at the end. 
She loves reading about happy endings but has more fun writing them.
