Cynthia St. Aubin blends humor, drama, passion and sensuality in her Harlequin Desire debut, Corner Office Confessions.

CEO Samuel Kane will do whatever it takes to oust his twin brother from the billion-dollar family food empire. Knowing that the best way to get rid of his twin is to put temptation in his path, Samuel hires a woman his brother has always desired and chased but who had never succumbed to him: Arlington Banks. Samuel thinks that his plan is foolproof – only he never imagined that he would find himself falling for Arlington himself!

Having been thrust in close proximity together, sparks begin to fly between Arlie and Samuel from the second they clap eyes on one another. Having had a simmering history of their own, resisting temptation soon proves easier said than done, but Samuel knows that he must erect a wall around his heart and keep Arlie at arm’s length because giving into his attraction to her would mean breaking his father’s cardinal rule to never mix business with pleasure!

With so much at stake and everything to lose, Samuel and Arlie find themselves forced to make an impossible choice. Does their love stand any chance of surviving when the odds are stacked against them? Will secrets, lies and deceptions end up tearing them apart for good? Or is their relationship just meant to be?

Cynthia St. Aubin’s Corner Office Confessions is a terrific category romance I couldn’t bear to put down. Cythia St. Aubin’s terrific debut is full of heat and heart and will have readers cheering on strong and sassy Arlie and sexy and charismatic Samuel.

Witty, intense and emotional, Corner Office Confessions heralds the arrival of an exciting new voice for category romance and Harlequin Desire fans: Cynthia St. Aubin.

Cynthia St. Aubin is one of those authors that are an instabuy for me. She never fails to deliver a great story, great characters, great humor, and always always lots of delicious cheese.

Corner Office Confessions is a second chance romance following Samuel Kane and Arlington aka Arlie. Their chemistry is off the charts making the book sweet and spicy. 🌶🌶🌶

The side characters are also written really well and I hope to see a lot more of them in future installments. Mason Kane's book is going to be amazing, I just know it!

This was a very enjoyable read, I highly recommend it along with the rest of Cynthia's books!

Thank you Net Galley for the Arc!

Thanks to Netgalley and Harlequin for allowing me to give my thoughts on this book.
This is an office romance that involves 3 main characters,
the instigator in the scenario - CEO Samuel Kane
the unwitting lady who is our female main character - Arlington Banks (Arlie)
and finally the final pawn in the triangle Mason Kane, Playboy and twin brother to Samuel.

Samuel comes across as being an uptight petty brother who is fed up with his father who is constantly letting his playboy brother get away with his dalliances and ineffectual business ethic. He is fed up with never having his father praise him for his hard work and diligence.
Mason was as you expected - at first, but by the end of the story, you realise he is more than just his reputation.
Arlie, well she was the housekeeper's daughter who secretly pined for Samuel as a girl, who managed to create herself a good career, but was unwittingly caught up in corporate espionage and has no choice but to accept the job offered by Samuel if she wants to keep a roof over her head. She knows it's going to be hard with her past feelings, but she's hopeful... until she realises there's more to this position that Samuel let on.
The story unfolds and the past and present collide with all 3 of the characters involved realising they had made assumptions
Samuel was enamored by Arlie as a boy and this soon turns into a comedy of errors and missed opportunities to come clean to the girl that has always had his heart.

I enjoyed this book and by the end of the story, I was happy that Samuel grew up enough to realise what was important in life. Mason was a character I ended up enjoying just as much and I hope that there is a further book about him - and Charllotte.

I was super excited to read this title. Sadly, the formatting of the book made it difficult to become engaged.

Unfortunately the formatting of this book made it very difficult to read, and made it very hard for me to engage with the writing itself. Please make sure netgalley editions are proper e-books with turnable pages!
