Message Received by D.K. Sutton


From a meet-cute to a training meeting, Message Received starts off with Sean flirting with Ben before finding out he's the boss... 

From the blurb:

First rule of keeping your job? Don’t hit on your boss.

Ben Pierce always follows the rules. Keeping everything and everyone in their place. But his newest employee, Sean Miller, doesn’t fit into his neat little boxes or his neat little life. The man is irritating, impulsive, and impossibly gorgeous. But most troubling of all, he has Ben wondering what it'd be like to let someone else take charge.

After hopping from place to place, Sean Miller finds a job he wants to keep. Or rather, one his roommate wants him to keep. Helping his friend through this difficult time is the most important thing. So for now, Sean has to play nice at his new job. No flirting with his boss. No touching his boss. No showing his uptight and yummy boss the joys of surrendering to the right person.

And absolutely no falling for this surprisingly sweet and vulnerable man. That might be the hardest rule of all not to break because finding the one person who fits you perfectly might be worth risking everything.

Message Received is an 86,000+ words, opposites attract, boss/employee novel with an HEA. It’s part of the Sloan Brothers series but can be read as a standalone.


Heather's Review:

Ben and Sean are likeable characters who find themselves embroiled in work related tensions and personal chemistry.  The secondary plot is a little bit convoluted, but the relationship is sweet and kinky and was a great read.  I enjoyed reading Message Received and recommend it if you like office romanes with a bit of external drama.
