Just a Grumpy Boss by Deb Goodman

Sebastian Tate’s a hot, grumpy boss trying to push his company to the next level… and in a comedy of errors not even Shakespeare could write, I’m now his assistant.

My theater history career goals might seem odd to some, but hey, life’s too short not to follow your dreams. Still, when my beloved beachside theater is deemed unsafe and I lose my job, my brother calls in a favor. I have no choice but to work as Sebastian’s executive assistant.
Sebastian is grouchy and demanding—too handsome for his own good. Haunted by the past, he can’t risk a relationship with anyone.
I’ll be going back home to California soon, anyway. My whole life is there. Keeping things professional between us will be no problem.
But when he accepts my help to fine tune the company’s charitable efforts, our long working hours become even longer. Suddenly, I have a front-row seat to another side of him. The man’s dedication to his family is charming. His frosty demeanor? Slowly melting. His unlikely kindness? Making me wonder if love isn’t just for poets.
Except, I don’t want to fall for him. I really don’t.

Can someone please tell my heart that?

Just a Grumpy Boss is a sweet, small-town romantic comedy with all of the sizzle and none of the spice! It’s the third book in the Tate Brothers series, which chronicles all six Tate brothers’ pathways to love at their resort in the idyllic, quirky small town of Longdale, Colorado.
