Book Review: Bossy by N.R. Walker

Michael Piersen isn’t up for complications. He’s one of Sydney’s fastest-moving career-focused corporate realtors, and the only thing he has time for is one-night stands with zero fuss.

Bryson Schroeder’s back home from two years overseas with plans to leave his family’s hotel empire and begin his own business ventures. Out with friends to celebrate his return, he sees a gorgeous blond man across the bar, and with merely a smile and a raised eyebrow, they leave together for a night of incredible chemistry.

The rules are clear: no names, no details, no complications.

But one night becomes one more night, and eventually the arrangement suits them both for weeks . . . until their professional and personal worlds collide. With their hearts already on the line, Michael and Bry need to decide just how complicated they want to get.

N.R. Walker’s Bossy takes us back to the tale as old as time of boy meets boy for meaningless sex until feelings started to catch up. It is an old trope but knowing the author’s ability to write sweet, angst free with a side dish of hot romance – you know damn well what you’re about to get into!

Bossy was very reminiscent of the author’s Sixty Five Hours novella (another favorite reread of mine) and it’s just an overall feel-good read with tension being dealt with realistically – where the characters are being adult about it. There was no unnecessary eye-rolling drama. Instead we get something straightforward, something mature which some authors tend to forget to do with these kind of storylines. The author didn’t choose to go the same old pattern, instead she reminds us that as adults – this is how we deal with things and I loved that aspect very much. Such an easy, breezy and a fun read. This is very highly recommended!

About The Author
N.R. Walker is an Australian author, who loves her genre of gay romance. She loves writing and spends far too much time doing it, but wouldn’t have it any other way. She is many things; a mother, a wife, a sister, a writer. She has pretty, pretty boys who live in her head, who don’t let her sleep at night unless she gives them life with words.

She likes it when they do dirty, dirty things… but likes it even more when they fall in love.

She used to think having people in her head talking to her was weird, until one day she happened across other writers who told her it was normal. She’s been writing ever since.
