I'm excited to take part in the release blitz celebrating "Stuck with the Boss" by Georgia Coffman, book #3 of the Stuck with You series. Characters from the earlier books make appearances in this one, but it reads as a standalone.
After yet another in a long string of dating disasters, high school math teacher Erin Hayes decides it's time to take a break from looking for love and focus on her career. Unfortunately, her bad luck continues when she attends the first faculty meeting of the school year and totally humiliates herself in front of her infuriating (but handsome) new boss, Oliver Westbrook. Neither that nor the fact that he continues to annoy her stops her from developing a crush on him, and secretly, principal Oliver can't help being attracted to Erin too. The situation reaches a boiling point following an offsite retreat when Oliver and Erin are stranded alone together at a rural campground. While waiting for their ride back to the city, their true feelings for each other are revealed, leading to an unexpected yet steamy hookup. Even though dating isn't technically against the rules for them, Oliver asks Erin to keep their relationship a secret for the time being. The last thing either of them needs to deal with is accusations of favoritism, especially after the school's vice principal announces her retirement and Erin's fellow teachers begin competing to fill the vacancy. When rumors about the principal and the math teacher begin to circulate anyway, will Erin and Oliver's fledgling relationship survive?
This book had me smiling and laughing from the first page to the last. I loved the push-pull and hilarious banter between Erin and Oliver, as well as the funny nicknames she and her friends came up with for him. Even though Oliver came across as a grump at first, he had such a good heart, and the way he connected with his younger half-sister Rebecca and nephew Malcolm in addition to Erin was very sweet. He took a big risk by moving from London to New York, but it paid off for him because he finally found the family he'd been looking for all along.
I highly
recommend "Stuck with the Boss" for all contemporary romance and romantic comedy fans. It's my new favorite of the series so far, and I can't wait to get my hands on the next installment.

About "Stuck with the Boss"
I have a crush on my new boss.
I’m very professional, but I’m not superhuman. I can’t resist a broody man in a suit, and the new principal wears his well. He’s so put together and sophisticated—a far cry from the duds I’ve been out with lately.
On top of that, his smooth British accent gives me the feels.
I didn’t think men like Oliver Westbrook existed in real life.
I just wish I would’ve made a better impression at our first faculty meeting. In fact, I wish every encounter with him didn’t end with me nervously sweating through my blouses.
If only I could stop putting my foot in my mouth.
To make matters worse, I get stranded with the frustratingly handsome man after a teacher retreat since our co-workers accidentally forgot us.
But the minute we’re alone and miles away from reality, something glorious happens.
Oliver loosens his tie and opens up to me, revealing more about himself and his feelings, which makes my knees weak.
With every vulnerable truth, I find myself falling harder.
I’m in deep trouble—the kind that’ll land me in detention.
But it doesn’t stop me from taking the risk.
