About the author

USA Today Bestselling Author Lacey Silks writes seat-gripping romantic suspense with heat and spice. She’s married to most of her characters and tortures her husband with quirky book roles. Lacey’s two kids and her dog Kygo fill her time with homework questions and sweet licks all over her face (the dog not the kids).

When she’s not writing seat-gripping and heart-throbbing stories, Lacey enjoys camping and skiing with her family. She’s an early bird by nature and drinks coffee instead of water, because that’s how her busy billionaire heroes do it.

Lacey’s flawed and relatable characters fill the pages with laughter, snark and tears. She judges men by the size of their feet, loves sexy lingerie, and can’t live without her “boost juice”: coffee.

Bossy Request
Reality in Each Fantasy, Book 1

I Picked Up This Book Because: Wanted a quick read for my down time at work.


The Characters:

Sharon:
Frank:

The Story:

I think this book could have benefited from being a page or two longer (reported as being 22 pages there are only 13 pages of story). I get that the tension was supposed to be a buildup 5 years in the making but it still seemed rushed. The characters timelines didn’t really make any sense. He was a super mature 30 year old and she’s been working for him since she was 20? Or at least that is what I was lead to believe. One spilled coffee takes him from “hands off” to I just want to touch you and the job be damned? I just couldn’t fall for it.

[BookAddict ✒ La Crimson Femme · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a fast and smexy read. It's a nice uncomplicated reading focused on a hawt handsome rich male boss and a gorgeous secretary. Sharon is attracted to Frank yet she resists him. She doesn't want to lose her job with unwanted advances. Her surprised dinner invitation from Frank leaves her panting with anticipation.

As expected, dinner is bypassed for a juicy dessert. It's sweet as the two of them devour their dish. Ms. Silks creates cute characters with a popular boss/secretary theme. Recommended for erotic readers looking for a fast enjoyable read.

This was a short quick hot read that I wished was longer. Sharon has worked for Frank who is her hot sexy boss for five years and during that time she was so attracted and lusted after him. She helps him with his tie almost every morning. Frank has also been lusting after her and the only reason he hasn't made a move is for fear that she loses her job if the company finds out they are having a relationship. Frank invited Sharon to come over to his house for dinner and they get hot and heavy. This was a short quick read that was well written with no errors in grammar or spelling.

This is a freebie story from Amazon and is a nice quick read (22 pages). It tells the story of a secretary having the opportunity to finally be with her gorgeous, hot boss when he invites her to a thank-you dinner. "I cannot imagine anyone else working under me, and I can't wait to thank you properly."

[Heather in FL · Rating 5 out of 5]

Damn. I want a boss like Frank. :-) He was hot as well as sweet and he was very concerned about Sharon not leaving him after they both indulged their wants with each other. I thought it was really cute that he tried to make her dinner, lol. Very sweet and sexy story.

I wonder why I read it now.

Overview

Frank's feelings toward his secretary are tested. He can no longer resist Sharon, and makes his move. Will Sharon begin to work under him the way he's dreamed for years?

My Thoughts

If there's something that Ms. Silks does well is give us these little novellas that give you just enough to want to know more, but enough that you're not upset when it's done. ok, well maybe a bit since i always prefer SEVERAL chapters of these guys.

Anyhow, we meet Sharon who is Frank's secretary and has been for the last 5 years, and there's chemistry between them that they haven't acted upon. It's only on the day that it's basically a perfect story - where Sharon stares at Frank in the gym while he's running w/ his shirt off and gets caught watching, and then spills steaming hot coffee on herself when Frank startles her that we see things finally heat up. (no pun intended).

Of course Frank's solution is to take her shirt off right? i mean that ALWAYS happens in a work situation, but i guess it's the impetus that we needed to see.

Anyhow, from then on we get usual Lacey Silks progress - very hot very steaming scening for the remainder of the novella. Makes you wonder what's next right? i'm off to find out. Have a good Saturday everyone.

I won this one in the erotic enchants holiday party, I am not really a fan of. short stories within this genra but I chose this one as my prize anyway because I liked all of lacey's covers and I am the type of Guy who judges books by there covers. The story is one that I have read many times, the Main character is attracted to her handsome rich boss and they have sex the end. Not very original but so what it is a short story and I was reading it more for the details, I thought it was well told and well written. I also liked that there where not really any dominant and submissive characters, they both seemed fairly even and I wish it was a little longer and included the follow up to her comment about always wondering what it would be Like for him to work under her. My final thoughts are that it was a good read but a little short for the 2.99 price tag if I hadn't have won it, If the author ever wrote a novella or full length novel I would check it out for sure but aside from this and the extra short story she gave me I probably wont read more unless they have a price drop or she writes something a bit longer.

*4.5 stars*

This was a hot little erotic short that is one that I will likely read again in the near future.

Sharon was hot for her boss--but who could blame her. He was handsome, built, and nice on top of it all, but she kept it professional because she liked her job and wanted to stay close to him. But, one night he invites her to dinner and it all changes.

Boy this was yummy. The boss, Frank was incredibly hot. I think that Sharon was a master in self-control for keeping her hands off him as long as she did!

There wasn't too much to the story because it was very short, but what was there was sensual and steamy and really held my interest.

*I won this book in a contest here on GR and this is my honest review*

[Jessica · Rating 4 out of 5]

See more of my reviews on my blog Thoughts At One In The Morning.

My Thoughts:

Take two people who have worked together for five years, add a little spice, and voila! That's Bossy Request. Since they work together, Frank and Sharon worry what could happen if they were to get involved. Of course, after the years of buildup, it's impossible to resist for long. While there's only a little bit of romance that we get to see in this short story, it is hot stuff.

Lacey Silks has done it again! This one clocks in at about 5600 words, but it has enough to make it a very sweet read.

My Rating: Very Good

[Malinda · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was a pretty good short about Sharon and Frank. Frank is Sharon's boss. She's worked for him for 5 years and is attracted to him but there's a strict non-fraternization policy at work. Frank has always kept his distance from Sharon even though he's wanted her since the day he hired her. Finally one day he stops maintaning the distance. It's too short to go too far in to the relationship but it has a good HFN ending. I wouldn't be adverse to a continuation of their story in the future. :D

[Cristal · Rating 5 out of 5]

Bossy Request is one that will set your sense on fire, while Sharon and her boss Frank are clearly attracted to each other and it'd obvious that it's sexual. Once Frank gets Sharon to his home for "dinner" things heat up and they "get together" to find out how you'll just have to read it I can promise a scorching, worthwhile read. You won't be disappointed, you will how ever be left wanting something ;)

[Tasha · Rating 4 out of 5]

I was searching for books by Lacey Silks on Smashwords when I saw this story. First off I have to say that the cover is the first thing that caught my attention, second was it is a short story and finally….. was Contains adult content and graphic sex scenes. Who doesn’t like a story with Adult Content and Graphic Sex Scenes? Well ladies have a fan nearby to cool you off or you will be taking a cold shower tonight.

[Kritikal Reading · Rating 4 out of 5]

I have to give it to the book whose dedication reads, "To Our hot bosses" Made me crack up right away.
This pretty much the story of Sharon, a secretary who is more than just that to her boss. his is a very short story and should be read like that, so the reader cannot demand a background to all of it.
The expressions and descriptions have been very vivid and raunchy.
For a short read, this one did the trick.

[Daisy Sloan · Rating 3 out of 5]

Short story about a boss and his secretary. They're attracted to each other but company policy won't let them be together. Things finally come to a head and the boss invites her over for dinner. They embark on a night of passion that sounds like it's headed for more.

Good story. Just a little short for me.

[Sandra · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was a good, sexy short with the right amount of set-up (just a little). The problem came with the repetitious and cheesy puns/innuendos. Yes, "work underhim", hardy-har, very funny, now stop saying it! Trying to hard.

[Joss · Rating 2 out of 5]

I liked the idea of the book and I realize it's a short story but I don't think I expected it to be that short. I think I would have enjoyed the story more if it was a bit longer with some more anticipation. I liked the writing and would probably read another book from this author.

[Kristy Dean-Veen · Rating 2 out of 5]

This story was okay. About 40 pgs. The story started with good detail then had a quick sex scene and ended. I felt the story was either rushed or was used as a sample to a story. The story left me feeling lost/wanting to know if there was another part of the story.

[Mary Jo · Rating 4 out of 5]

Short, sweet and oh so sexy. This one will get your blood pumping and give you that quick escape. Sharon takes care of her boss Frank, always picking out his ties. What happens when one day Frank pushes for more?

[Carol · Rating 3 out of 5]

When the boss ask you over for dinner you know that you are on the menu!
Frank has the hots for his secretary Sharon but he has hid it for 5 years. It's time he put the moves on her.
Dinner is a disaster but the dessert what just what she wanted!

I can truthfullly say I fell asleep reading this. Not that it was poorly written...maybe I was just overly tired. Damn.

Quick, hot-ish 'naughty nooner', so a quick review...

I liked it!

[Rhonda · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book is basically one steamy encounter. Boy these two have chemistry. If you are looking for a long story with details, this book isn't for you.

[Anime · Rating 4 out of 5]

I enjoyed this short story. I was kind of wanting more cause I was totally getting into it. the writing was good. It was a good erotic story. I will be readying some from this author.

[Crystal · Rating 4 out of 5]

Sharon works for Frank and has been for five years. They fight their feelings for each other and then one night it all ends. This is a really short story but I enjoyed it.

[April · Rating 4 out of 5]

Nice story, hot moments! A few overused, corny phrases, but all in all a quick, entertaining read.
