And Then He Kissed Her (Girl-Bachelor Series #1)

And Then He Kissed Her (Girl-Bachelor Series #1) - I loved the idea of this novel: most characters in historical romance novels are all members of the ton...they're rich and privileged. The exception is if a servant/lower class character gets fitted in somehow. This one is different: Emma is a working gal: and she is happy to be one! She works in publishing, and loves her job...except for her boss. Captain Butthead.As the book progresses, she (somewhat unintentionally) begins to take him to task and whip him into shape. He realizes that Emma has some hidden depths, and decides he wants - and needs - her in her life, any way he can get her.This is quite the sweet story, I loved how quickly they came together. They have a lot of chemistry, and Guhrke can definitely pen some steamy scenes! I also love that Emma got to do what she really wanted to do: write. She is definitely a heroine you can relate to and root for, and the book definitely delivers in giving her a satisfactory ending. I definitely recommend picking this up if you're a fan of historical romance!
