BLURB:

She had a smile that could drop any man to his knees, and all I wanted to do was corrupt her.
With just a few smooth words, I got my wish. She melted when I touched her, her voice nothing but moans.
When it was all over, I didn't expect to see her again.
Flash ahead to Monday morning and I'm shocked to find out she's my new boss.
Power, wealth, a body I could ride for days; this woman had it all.
The attraction between us is explosive, the look in her eyes just begs me for more.
There's only one problem, her ex-boyfriend doesn't want me near her.
He tells me she's off limits, and he's willing to tear her apart to win this war.
But I don't take orders from stuck-up suit who already had his chance.
She's my queen now.

REVIEW:

This is my first book by Leah Holt and it was a great introduction to her writing style and story building. I loved the concept behind the Queen of Pentacles, the focus of a woman who has everything but nothing in what she really wants.

Queen of Pentacles follows Ash, a man who is giving a chance to start at the bottom again in his career after a mishap from his prior magazine company. He is now starting as an editor and observing the life of the rich and famous at a charity party. The people there are all about competing and looking the best and showing how much money they are. But a woman catches Ash's eye, Nola is everything that Ash wants, her spunk, her actual love for helping people, but she's hiding behind a mask. After their one night neither can forget what happened, but they don't think they'll see each other again until Ash shows up in a meeting in Nola's company.

Ash is all alpha and knows what he wants, he's also a gentleman when is comes to impressing and taking care of Nola. But the two are blocked by a constant annoyance of someone who keeps harassing and blackmailing Nola. Nola has a lot to discover about herself, she need to grow up and out of the safe zone she's been living in.

Overall this was a great story and smoking hot, the romance is off the charts , even is such few pages. I was able to feel the connection of the characters and get pulled into their world. I look forward to reading more from Holt now that I have tried her work.
