BLURB
There is only ONE stranger Dominic Smith tolerates, and that’s me.
And it’s because I’m on the payroll acting as his fake fiancée.
The international billionaire and dedicated loner needs my social skills to schmooze the locals while he glares from the shadows, but if he thinks he can stay there, he's mistaken.
We’re meant to be a couple, so he has to stop being an antisocial jerk boss long enough to pretend he’s in love with me, but it surprises us both when he’s convincing.
I can’t deny I’ve found it an easy role to play. Too easy perhaps. But no matter how real our feelings seem to become, I have to remember it’s a ruse. Business CANNOT mix with pleasure… can it?
When my contract ends, so does the relationship. He’ll head home to the other side of the world, and I’ll finally have enough money for everything I thought I wanted.
But will he make room in his luggage for my heart, when he takes it with him?
Boss in the Shadows is a standalone romance with an HEA. While it's part of a series, each book is a different couple and can be read on its own.

AUTHOR BIO
Janie loves good coffee, bittersweet chocolate, and contemporary romance in all its forms. But while she loves many genres, billionaire romance is her favourite to write. Who doesn’t like a hot guy with buckets of money? Especially when he has to work hard to win the love of his life.
I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.
This book takes place in New Zealand and stars Aria who is the sister whose sisters, Mel and Sage are dating billionaires, Ajax and Grant from the previous books in the series. We also get to see their friends, Ed and Jasmine in this book.
Aria owns a dress shop and needs to find a new location, but money is a bit tight for her. She is paired with Dominic as he needs to expand his business and needs a fake fiancée. He hires her to pretend to be engaged to him while helping him network for his business as his fiancée.
Dominic is a very serious man and definitely not a people person. He likes dressing casually, is anti-suits, needs a haircut, wears glasses and is very strait laced, and likes one-word answers. We actually met him in the previous books as the IT security friend everyone calls when they need help. He is so serious that he is really cute and funny. I laughed at the first dinner party with him, Aria and Mel and Grant.
This had a bit of a makeover with Aria making Dominic into more of a fashionable man and it was a total laugh riot. I loved them together so much. This was a fun story with two extremely opposite people who end up in a fake relationship. It made me smile, laugh and sigh. I am really loving this series.
My only real criticism on this story was I felt the end wrapped up too easily. The before the fake dating was a good 30-40% of the story and the wrap up and ending was so fast that I was like, what? Beyond that this was a fun story with cute characters and some great laughs.
