Beauty salon… and the Beast
Quinn:
Working at the family wedding resort wasn’t exactly on my Bingo card.
But it’s the only way for my siblings and me to get our grandfather’s
inheritance, so here I am, staffing the Hott Spot Spa and Salon front
desk. It’s an absurd gig for a man who makes Oscar the Grouch look like a
people-person.
Still, I’m a hard worker. I’ve made a fortune off
my scientific discoveries, and if I can engineer groundbreaking drugs, I
can do anything, right? Not according to Sonya Rossi, the spa’s smoking
hot and relentlessly perky manager. My grumpy approach is testing even
sunshine-y Sonya’s patience. Meanwhile, I’m not sure whether I want to
rain on her parade—or kiss the smile off her face.
Then the
universe throws another curveball, putting us under the same roof. The
closer Sonya gets, the more I like it—and her. I want to get to know her
better and let her see the side of me I never show people. Until now,
I’ve only believed in what I can touch, sense, and prove. I definitely
don’t believe in love… but Sonya's making me wish I could.
A
spicy, grumpy-sunshine, opposites attract, under-one-roof, forced
proximity standalone romantic comedy set in the beloved small town of
Rush Creek.

What I thought about Hott Shot
Serena Bell returns to Rush Creek with Hott Shot with a fish out of water story about how a last will and testament can just make a huge difference in lives.
When Grampa lays out his conditions in his will, his first "gotcha" is that scientist Quinn Hott must work the front desk as a receptionist at the Hott Shot Spa and Salon. This is not the ideal job for Quinn, who would rather deal with his own businesses. But Grampa has a plan, and part of the plan is to put Quinn in this situation. I can't wait to see what he has for the other siblings!
This is pure rom-com with lots of fun and feel good moments. I really enjoyed this light-hearted romance. Did I mention there is also forced proximity? Spa manager Sonya has her hands full with Mr. Grumpy receptionist, and to make matters worse, they are sharing a cabin!
So not only does Quinn have to get used to being a receptionist instead of scientist at his BioTech company, he has to deal with his growing attraction for Sonya. There's plenty of juicy banter and smoldering attraction here and I loved it.
This is a great start to a new series and I can't wait for more! An entertaining contemporary romance.
