About this ebook

What’s the one thing you shouldn’t do when your boss is your ruthless evil widowed stepmother who hates your guts more than anyone?

Kiss the man she’s interested in.

So what does Kaitlynn Judge find herself doing?

Yep, she kisses the one man her stepmother currently wants, who also happens to be the CEO of the company where she works.

Can we say doomed?

After the death of her father, Kaitlynn's life has been stuck in a rut. But that begins to change after meeting a dashing stranger during the office Halloween party. Now she has to navigate vengeful stepmothers, meddling stepsiblings, and gorgeous guys in hot pursuit to reach her happily ever after.

While making a detour from the fantasy aspect, this contemporary take on the Cinderella story continues to cling to a few of our favorite traditions. You’ll still find the unmerited oppression along with fleeing women, missing shoes, mouse companions, magic wands, pumpkin-like rides to the big bash, and so much more. So rest assured, it’s all familiar and yet quirkily different.

Editor's Note

New Adult Fairy Tale...

Kage’s take on fairy tales continues in “Kissing the Boss,” a New Adult riff on Cinderella. Instead of a prince, however, the heroine’s interest lands on the CEO of the company she works for, and also the guy her stepmother wants. Kage’s lively characters and banter breathe new life into the traditional story.

    The beginning is wonderful. It takes off like magic. Funny and passionate. There are a lot of missed cues, but it gives it even more the charm. I couldn't finish because there was a point i had to stop, and i dont want to spoil why. It is a good read to give it a chance is worth it.
