Lily, you predictable perv. I knew you’d open this email faster if I tempted you with a glimpse of JT’s “PP”. Well, put your pants back on and grab some bubbly because I have much better news to share.

I GOT A JOB!

As of tomorrow, I’ll be the new executive assistant at Lorena Lefray Designs. I am SO excited, but there’s one itty bitty problem: I won’t be Lorena’s assistant. I’ll be working for her older brother, Julian.

I know what you’re thinking- “But Jo, what’s the problem?”

Google him. Now. He’s the man in the fitted navy suit whose face reminds you that there’s hope yet for this cruel, ugly world. Keep scrolling…Do you see those dimples? Yup. That’s the Julian Lefray I will be reporting to tomorrow morning.

Lord, help us all…

XO,

Jo

tina's thoughtsI think it is safe to say, in my opinion, that RS Grey is the young and fresh Queen of the Rom-Com. She has made a name for herself with her awesome characters and refreshing humor. Her books are filled with hilarious antics, sweet moments, and hot connections. What more could a girl want from such a story? Not much! THE ALLURE OF JULIAN LEFRAY is a fantastic new book to add to the RS Grey collection! There is humor galore, romance in spades, and a fantastic story of love and life.

THE ALLURE OF JULIAN LEFRAY is told in dual POVs. We see insight into both Julian and Jo’s minds, which allows the reader to truly understand both characters motivations, hesitation, and true feelings. I love reading stories in dual POVs because it allows the reader to understand more of what is happening and root for the two love birds to find their place together. Jo is an independent young woman who is determined to follow her dream and find her place in the fashion world. She is a fashion blogger who has taken the next step in her dreams- moving to New York and making a name for herself. I loved reading her blog posts in the book and seeing a glimpse to her approach and experiences that influenced what she shared! She is classy with a touch of home grown Texas girl. She is a hard worker and a dreamer. I loved how well rounded she was as a character. Jo worked hard for her future and her hard work was rewarded.

Julian… Oh my lawd. He is the swoon worthy match to our dear Josephine and their chemistry is HOT! I loved seeing glimpses inside of his brain, seeing how he viewed Jo and his determination to accomplish all that he put his mind to. He is a family oriented man and I loved that about him. He loves his sister and would do whatever it takes to be there for her. He is smart, sexy, powerful, and kind. I think Julian is my favorite sexy man from RS Grey’s collection! His personality is both mysterious and open. His affection for Jo is adorable and his pursuit of her is beautiful!

This story is filled with so many sweet moments, hilarious moments (in which I found myself literally laughing and snorting out loud), and steamy moments. RS Grey has an incredible talent for blending all of those areas into one book that will leave you smiling and breathless. I love how her stories are light and fresh. There are hard things and sometimes rough themes but they are shared in such a way that the drama is not overwhelming and the hard times are lined with hope. If you are looking for a wonderful romantic comedy that is fresh, engaging, and fun- look no further! THE ALLURE OF JULIAN LEFRAY has everything you could want from a fun rom-com and it is one you will not want to miss!

about the author

I am a lover of books, chocolate, reality TV, black labs, and cold weather. Seriously, if I had it my way, I would be curled up on the couch with all of those things… everyday.

I live in Texas where I spend my free time writing and reading. My favorite authors include Mindy Kaling & Jonathan Safran Foer. I’m a comedy geek and love all things “funny”. Women like Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, and Mindy Kaling are definitely the biggest inspirations for my writing, though I think my work tends to skew a bit smuttier than theirs.
