Product Description:
'Blake Kemp was a man who knew his own mind and was as stubborn as the day is long in Jacobsville, Texas. As the town's leading lawyer, he had a reputation to uphold, and he didn't want the tender ministrations of his assistant to get in his way - even if he desperately needed her, since those big boots of his did have a tendency to step on toes. So, of course, the boss man fired pretty, gentle Violet, for having the nerve to, of all things, try to help him! But, being a smart as well as hard-headed man, Blake could soon see that without his guiding light, his life would soon be in darkness. Only one thing to do - hire her back and make sure that business didn't mess with matters of the heart. Only then did he find that Violet had an agenda of her own - and it didn't include letting the boss man forget how indispensable she was - both on and off the job!'

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Boss Man by Diana Palmer
While I enjoyed reading the book, it wasn't one of her better books. Not one I would read a second time as I have done with many of her other books.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Wheres the hero?
Typical romance by Diana Palmer. Violet is a strong character, unlike a lot of the females in the other books. However, the male character in this one comes up extremely short. He has no attractive attributes whatsoever. He's selfish, caught in the past, and unwilling to do his part to make the relationship work. It seems like he cares about his pet cats more. Even to the end, he makes Violet settle for a measly relationship.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Don't Bother!!!!!!!!!
What a waste of my time and money! This author is living in a time warp! If you have another title, just change the names and you'll have a new book. How does she get away with submitting the same crap to the publisher?
Palmer's male characters are gods gift to women and get away with treating women like trash. The women are so fiesty, they put their men in their place with witty responses like "you, beast!" ...Blah, Blah, Blah.............



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Boss Man~Cute
I enjoyed this book. It was a cute story. It tied up alot of questions that continued thru other books. I loved the two cats & how Violet won them over.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Dissapointed
In other books Blake has tantalized with the possibility of a good romance but when his turn came, I found his story a dissapointment. It was the same for Dr. Coltrain & Cash Grier; the possibility of a highly charged romance was hinted at in stories where they had 'guest appearances' but it seemed that when it became time to tell thier stories Diana was tired of them and just threw a combination of old plots and contradictory situations together. Diana Palmers works are either very good or ... Read More
