This has been on my TBR for a while, so I was glad that I finally got to it. This was a cute if not short romance where I loved seeing the heroine grow because frankly she was way too meek for me to like in the beginning. The story had a little bit of a cinderella feel to it complete with the HEA.I was wondering though if Julie's friend Sheridan would get a story. It seemed like there were hints of Sheridan having a similar situation with her boss although it seemed as if she was fighting it tooth and nail. I'll have to go searching for that! I'm behind on sharing the many books I've read, when receiving the opportunity. Eve Vaughn is one of my favorite authors. This book, Candy Girl was an awesome read. The heroine was taken advantage of in the office, supplying candy to everyone who would take without giving. No one ever offered to bring candy in or to reimburse her for this act of kindness. The heroine was a person who was afraid to say no, until her boss steps in to comfort her from her boyfriend's betrayal. The two discover and act upon their chemistry, and the situation gets hotter than hell!Anyway, I enjoy how the heroine finally summons enough strength to tell those around her "no." That means, no more supplying candy, and refusing to allow folks to pawn off their work on her. I work in an office setting, and I can relate. If you don't draw that fine line and are afraid to say no, folks will take kindness for weakness. Give them an inch, they will take a mile. Awesome job Eve!

Clearly Eve Vaughn could make short story becoming steamy and sweet.
