Description
Meet Jackson McKay...
There's only one thing you need to know about me. I'm a cold hearted bastard that will never love you the way you deserve. And I'm sorry to say, bastard beats nice guy, every time.
I never lie. Never deceive. I lay out exactly what will happen. My only promise is that I'm a one-night stand. That this is will be our first and last time together. Then I stand back and let them walk. But they never do. Because they all want to believe they will be the one to change me.
And, Gwen Johnson, the woman that will be his demise...
There's only one thing you need to know about me. What I want, I get. End of story. I didn't come to own one of the best restaurants in the city of Chicago before the age of thirty by taking no for an answer. And what I want is for this cold hearted bastard, and culinary genius, to work for me. I don't care how difficult he is. I'm going to figure out what makes him tick, what he needs most, and then I'm going to go in for the kill.
The way I see it, you either own it, or it owns you...

What a roller coaster of a story! This was one of the most intense couples I’ve ever read. They’re sizzling chemistry practically came off the page. Turning insta-lust into insta-love is very hard to achieve and for me to believe, but it was nailed in this book. Honestly, at the beginning I wasn’t too sure, but these characters definitely won me over. There were so many tender and heart warming moments that made this a well rounded story. And of course, I love a good grovel. This was one hard fight for love; I just wish there was an epilogue!
4.5 STARS
HOLY CANOLI! I love when I am introduced to a new to me author that writes some amazing stuff, and Jennifer Dawson definitely meets that profile. I always get so nervous reading someone new because the author's writing sets the tone. With that said, I absolutely adored Dawson's writing. I was not expecting this author to be so seasoned. I was rooted to my seat from start to finish. I wasn't sure where this author was going to go with the story line considering the title and blurb, but Dawson made dang sure Cold Hearted Bastard was a compelling - captivating read. For the most part, I would not consider this book to weigh heavily on someone. It was rather witty, with amazing banter within the dialogue. Gwen and Jackson's story flowed wonderfully. The chemistry was spot on. I haven't read a book in quite a while that has held this kind of chemistry. To be blunt, it was euphoric. I could so easily feel the heat from Gwen and Jackson rolling off the pages. Gwen and Jackson are a force to be reckoned with. They were both so head strong and confident, and I found that even more appealing. The secondary characters were just a bonus. I loved that this author added their two sense through the entirety of Cold Hearted Bastard. Overall, this book was fantastic, and I look forward to more of this authors work..
Jackson is head strong and confident, and he makes no apologies for who he is. His womanizing arrogance is just the icing on the cake. Once hailed the best culinary master of this generation but things change.
Gwen has more confidence in herself than I have in my pinky. She is beautiful from the inside to the out. When she wants something she makes it happen, and nothing will stand in her way. This red haired goddess has a backbone and knows how to use it.
When Gwen crashes into Jackson's town everything changes. Does she get what she came for?
