I adore this book. <3

Ally just finished her MBA and got a job at Jet Stream Studios. Her uncle who was her biggest supporter got her the job. She doesn't feel like it is nepotism, cause she is very good at what she does, but still wants to prove herself. Her uncle warns her about Marcus. 

Marcus is one of two bosses, the one that doesn't particularly like anyone, that is not directly on his team, especially her. He appears antisocial and doesn't back down from anything. He goes for what he wants and thinks Ally is set there as the spy. 

He is proven right when her uncle asks her to report if she sees something. However, when things don't add up, Ally goes to Marcus instead of her uncle. And the more time they spend together going over numbers, she sees different sides to him and starts to like him. :)

I love them both: how open Ally is and how her openness slowly crumbles Marcus's defenses and how true to himself he is, he stands for his values and his company no matter what. 

It's a slow build, enemies, to loves romance, and it's soooo good. :)

synopsis

Who can you trust?

Ally Michels is fresh out of her MBA program at Cal and has landed her dream job at hot, up-and-coming video game developer, Jet Stream Studios, all thanks to her uncle, Jet’s largest venture capital investor. She’s feeling pretty good about her future until an inadvertent blurt in a company meeting brings down upon her the dangerous attention of Jet’s co-founder and chief developer, Marcus Abby.

Beautiful, brilliant, and vicious, Marcus is every bit the arrogant, deceitful founder her uncle warned her about. But in the power-fueled world of venture capital investing, things aren’t always what they seem. When Ally finds herself caught up in a play for corporate control, she must work with Marcus to save the company and an ideal she believes in, while navigating perilous family loyalties and fighting to hold onto her own integrity.

For Ally, there’s just one rule: never, ever trust Marcus Abby. Because the one man she needs to stop a high-stakes plot is the one man who has every reason to want her gone.

SIDE EFFECTS is an adult contemporary, twisty, underhanded, certainly unscrupulous . . . romance.

She has the job that she loves,  lovely friends and a fiance that she loves more than anything. They are planning a wedding, renovating a house and generally looking forward to what's to come. But Ella is keeping a secret. She gets random pins and needles, freezing spells, and random episodes, that she ignored for too long. Then she got the diagnosis, with Multiple Sclerosis. Ella has a hard time coping with it and mostly tries to ignore it. There are many challenges to living with a disease, but for Ella, the worst is how people look at her now.

It's a very real tale, of dealing with a difficult diagnosis. But it's also a tale of resilience, of a woman's journey from denial, and

His career is about to take off when he runs into a pretty woman, who has no idea who he is. She thinks he is just a friendly (and hot) security guard. Little did she know that in those few minutes, she will inspire his first album. Years later she had a crazy task of emptying a library and need help. Who better than Alex who is now a big star, with the biggest writer's block. He escapes to the retirement community to get away from deadlines and managers who are trying to force him into something he doesn't want.  Sparks fly again and they still have crazy chemistry, but she still doesn't know who he is. :) It's the cutest love story, full of chemistry emotions and swoon-worthy moments. rating❤❤❤❤ cover❤❤❤❤ book info genre contemporary, romance, adult published February 21, 2023 number of pages 373 Goodreads || Amazon
