Myra Michaels has been a personal slave to Kace Cox for far too long. She’s tired of him making her work all hours of the night and taking long work trips with just the two of them that could have been an email. She’s also really tired of the uncontrollable attraction she feels for him and she’s got to get away from it. But the day she quits, she makes an even bigger mistake and now she’s got a secret baby bump to think of. Hiding out in a reclusive billionaire’s castle sounds like a great plan. That is until Kace comes knocking.

Kace Cox has wanted Myra since the moment she walked into his office. But his policy of not sleeping with employees leaves no room for his desires. He’s waited all this time and hasn’t touched another woman since the day he laid eyes on her. So when Myra quits she’s finally fair game. He gets just one taste of her and then she disappears, but she has no idea how determined he can be.

Warning: What could possibly happen when he finds her?! Get toasty with us, because you know it’s a steamy happily ever 

May be spoilers:

Toasty is part of the Cozy series. It has 12 chapters with an epilogue and is about Kace and Myra.

Myra works for Kace and has for a few years. They both want the other and even though he’s a jerk to her, they both want the other.

He just doesn’t make a move until she quits. That’s a little off for me as I feel if he wanted her bad enough, he wouldn’t have waited so long.

He does have her once she quits, but then she runs.

She’s a virgin, but nothing is said about his past.

She’s gone for 6 weeks before he finds her.

I liked it, but I really wish they didn’t wait years to profess their feelings. Still a good read though.

No cheating, no real ow/om drama, 6 week separation.

Epilogue is 2 years out, then 6 years later. They are happily married with 3 kids. I gave it 🌟🌟🌟 ½ . Thanks for reading.
