Whitney G is so very very good at writing stories about completely inappropriate alphas with giant egos and dirty mouths and the women who can handle them. If you have not read any of her books, you really are missing out and doing yourself a disservice. The wit in all Whitney G books is sharp and smart. The stories are completely engrossing and entertaining. I have read almost every book by this author and I've never been disappointed. Cocky Client is one of her three short stories series. The book is only about 90 pages but it is a complete story that you can read quickly and still love.
Penelope is determined to have a one night stand and she does with Ryan. The next day Penelope is set to meet the biggest client of her career as a publicist and it's Ryan. The same Ryan who left her one of the funniest post-one night stand notes you will ever read. Everything about Ryan and Penelope was fun for me. Ryan is totally off his rocker. He can scarcely find a PR firm in all of NY to rep him because he's rich, cocky and unfamiliar with appropriate conduct. Penelope could really use Ryan's business but she has a backbone and refuses to put up with Ryan's outrageous behavior. She manages to get hired despite the fact that Ryan tries to fire her before she starts. All sorts of shenanigans and super hot sex ensues. As I've come to love about Whitney G, she advances the plot with emails between the characters. The emails are effing hilarious. They are not just between the main characters either. The emails involve Penelope's best friend Sean and his attempts to get rid of Penelope's crazy ass roommate. It's just all in good fun and makes the story much more entertaining.
Even though this really is a complete short story, my only regret is that I want more. I would've loved to read more about these characters. I really wanted to know how Ryan came to be such a psycho. Just in general, I wanted more time with both of these characters. Instead of being greedy though, I'm going to appreciate what Whitney gave us and suggest you do the same. Read this and then find everything else you can by this author and read that too. You will never be disappointed.
