Book Description

Mary was a little lamb...

Mary Reyland was fed up with being taken for granted, and ready to step on a few toes--while wearing a pair of sexy black fishnets to her next client meeting....

Till she discovered her inner vixen!

Edmund Davis enjoyed being in charge. That's why he chose to work with "mousy" Mary. But when a sultry, confident Mary strode into his office, he wasn't sure how to handle the challenge. And apparently the new and improved Mary wasn't going to settle for anything less than she deserved, in business or pleasure....

5.0 out of 5 stars I liked this story, October 12, 2010

This review is from: Power Play (Kimani Romance) (Mass Market Paperback)

I Purchased the first part of The Black Stocking Society and thought it was horrible so I didn't expect much, if anything, from this one but it seems that Ms. Girard found her footing with the story of Mary and Edmund. I liked watching Mary and Edmund grow together as well as individuals. I feel like their love was true and fresh. From their meeting to Mary's submissive/passive Trying-to-grow-into-a-big-girl personality to Edmunds domineering I-get-what-I-want take-no-prisoners personality; everything was blended together to make the perfect little underdog urban romance.

Can't wait to read Body Chemistry!

I initally gave this story four stars but upgraded it to five because reading this made up for the first book.

I enjoyed the book...sweet romance NO HEAT! It is considered a series but the stories really have nothing to do with each other. I have read 3/4 books and they all stand alone.
