Her first words to him were "f**k you"

Dakota Bowers was feisty, intelligent, hard-working, and a hold no punches kind of woman. There was just something about her that entrepreneur mentor Jonah West just could not put his finger on. She was not afraid of him and she let him know it and he liked that. But she was as stubborn as a mule and refused to listen to his advice when she failed to win support on the Shark Tank rip-off TV show, Invest in the Best. Now she had to find an alternative way to take care of herself and baby after her step-mother put her out.

When Jonah ran into Dakota five years later, he had to remind her of what she vowed to do with her invention, Skin For Her. He was determined to make sure it happened because he believed in her. She was the type of woman he needed in his life. Dakota was used to taking care of herself and her daughter. With her opinion on men being that they were devils or the spawn of Satan himself, she had to get used to Jonah mentoring her, protecting her, and loving her. Her first priority was making sure Ella got to enjoy her childhood.

Xyla did an excellent job with this story. Little Ella just tickled the hell out of me. She was too grown for her britches. She loved her mother and was very protective of Dakota, enough to kick the heck out of Jonah when they first bumped into each other. She was fierce just like her mother. She was Dakota's mini-me. And, Jonah's mother and sister killed it trying to see Dakota for the first time. I loved the appearance of the Vegas and Portia in the story too. That lip-biting thing was hot as all get out. I loved how Portia said her husband did that too. So who's next in the Mister Series? Is it Cano?

I love the Misters

I loved it. Jonah and Dakota are a great pair. They're both straightforward with no back and forth mess. Good sex scenes a HEA and no cliffhangers. I can't wait for the next one in the series.

Not this man forcibly kissing the main character like a barbarian... Yecch. I'm so over this trope. The male lead is a d*ckhead and his only redeeming quality after 60 pages of the book is that he's good at business. Why should he get the girl?

This is the second installment of the Mister series and I enjoyed this story. The book featured characters from Mr. Vega but you don’t have to read the first installment to understand this story. I enjoyed the character development the author created for both Jonah and Dakota. I definitely recommend.
