Publisher's summary
A boss. His employee.
And a scandal that’s about to change everything….
As an operating partner at Jade Harbour, Raymond Chao prides himself in fixing even the most disastrous of portfolio companies—no matter the cost. While his colleagues might not always like his methods, they love his results. But his latest business partner isn’t cooperating, and what’s worse, Raymond's underhanded tactics have landed him in hot water with the law.
Elvin Goh has been Raymond's assistant for years, and he's been in love with the charming, ruthless playboy for just as long. There's very little that Elvin won't do or hasn't done—for Raymond. Impossible crush aside, it's his job. But this time, even Elvin can't see a way out.
When long nights in the office lead to whispered confessions and a newfound intimacy, it seems like a dream come true—for both of them. But with the prospect of failure on the horizon, can this dream team beat the odds and come out the victors in the office and in their hearts?

Story
Kyran Harbor is everything I'm not. Rich. Popular. A superstar football player who's awfully broody for someone who has it all. Basically, he's a preppy jock who hates me. Oh, and he's also my stepbrother. That's right. We're stuck together, sharing a school, a house, a bathroom. Honestly I wouldn't care if he wasn't such an uptight control freak who messes with me just because we're different. I had every intention of avoiding him when we got to college. Until abrupt misfortune forces us both into a compromising position.

Bookstore owner Aubrey Barnes likes his quiet, orderly London life, thank you very much. His shop may be struggling, his only employee is a menace, and his plumbing is one creaky pipe away from disaster, but he can handle it. Maybe. He cannot, however, handle the film company that's thrown his Soho street into chaos. And he definitely can't handle the charismatic American actor Blake Sinclair.

In my defense, I was left alone with a bottle of single-malt and a lifelong penchant for protecting my baby sister. Still, that's no excuse to send 10 drunk-texts on why her hasty marriage would be a mistake. If only I had just texted my sister. But nope. I accidentally sent the message to her, her groom, and his super hot wingman. I also used the phrase “super hot wingman”, so I’d like to die now.

They were the king and queen of Hollywood - and then she wanted a divorce. The only way to survive his depression is to bury himself in work.

Life doesn’t always pan out as you expect. When it explodes in my face, literally, an old friend offers me a place to heal and a job renovating the kitchen of Burlington’s coolest wine bar. V&V is a chill fest. Living above it should be a blast. But I’m not built to be a social butterfly. Not anymore. I’m a damaged man. And I’m not its target clientele. At least, I think I’m not until I come face-to-face with the most beautiful human I’ve ever seen.

Story
My path to success never included an enemy as a teammate, especially one as infuriating as Quinton de Haas. Clawing under my skin is his favorite pastime, only feeding the animosity between us as the years pass. We’re as completely opposite as two people can be; the golden boy and the black sheep. Constantly at odds or at each other’s throats. The only thing we can agree on is hockey is our true love, and we’ll do whatever it takes to come out on top. I never imagined that drive would lead me to do the unthinkable: falling into bed with my not-so-straight rival.

Between running a garage full of beefed-up gear-head mechanics and bailing my idiot brother out of trouble every other week, the last thing I have time for is a relationship. I’ve tried it too many times, and the ridiculous reasons I always find to end it have become a running joke around the garage. But I’ve learned my lesson. No. More. Boyfriends. I don’t care how many times Porter falls asleep drunk in my bed or how cute he looks covered in oil smears while I teach him how to fix up the vintage car he has rusting away in his garage; I’m not going to fall for him.

Love and the right timing were two things I didn't believe in. Love is about walking to the edge of the cliff and taking the leap together. Timing was never on our side. My first mistake was hooking up with my best friend. My second came years later, when we met again, and I fell for her. My third was letting her go, because I had to. Because a love like this wasn't built to withstand the winds coming in our direction. Love and timing. I didn't believe in either. Then there was you....

In the dark alley of a pub, the words "Please don't" take hold of her heart and break the silence she seeks. Thinking herself beyond redemption, she tentatively grabs on to the slim thread of hope that unfolds inside of her. Holding her secrets close, she can't resist the comforting draw coming from The Skipper. The unconditional friendships it offers, the protective roof it provides, and the spark that its owner ignites in her - melting the frost off her heart, and slowly stripping away her resistance.

With her long ponytail and sparkling green eyes, Tessa Donovan looks more like the girl next door than a businesswoman - or a heartbreaker. Which may explain why Detective Luke Asher barely notices her when he arrives to investigate a break-in at her family’s brewery. He’s got his own problems - starting with the fact that his partner, Simone, is pregnant and everyone thinks he’s the father.

The most beautiful man I've ever seen is the same one who can ruin everything. The first time I lay eyes on Callan Walker, I know he'll be trouble. With his smug grin, hot Aussie accent, and thousand-dollar shoes, he's just the kind of rich guy who always gets what he wants. And he wants two things: a night of sin, and my cooperation as he outmaneuvers his powerful mother to take control of his uncle's estate. I can't afford either one. I'm the only thing standing between my little sister and the foster care system.

Enemies turn to lovers in this bad boy billionaire romance with a twist. I had a plan. Finish law school. Start a job. Stay away from men like Brandon Sterling. Cocky, overbearing, and richer than the Earth, he thinks the world belongs to him, and that includes me. Yeah, no. Think again. It doesn't matter that his blue eyes look straight into my soul, or that his touch melts my icy reserve. It doesn't even matter that past all that swagger, there's a beautiful, damaged man who has so much to offer beyond private planes and jewelry boxes. But I had a plan: no falling in love.

Ari had a game plan for life: shoot people. Get money. Hang out with fellow criminal friends. He saw absolutely no reason to change that plan until one dark night in Memphis, when a little girl reached out to him with pocket change and a desperate plea for him to help her. Adopting an abused little girl off the streets was, needless to say, not part of the plan. Ari had no idea what he was doing with an eight year old. He especially didn’t know how to juggle taking contracts and raising a little girl.

The icing on the cake was her brother, Colt. I didn't expect anything to happen. He's almost 10 years older, aloof, mysterious, and devastatingly handsome.

Tetsuda adds French accent, author has ax to grind
This is an updated review.
If you read, and enjoyed Hard Sell, then you might like the fact that many of the same tortured topics make it to this book too. Going Public follows Ray Chao, the other hotshot from Hard Sell and his executive assistant Elvin Goh. While a few elements of the story are different, we see much of the same dynamic here, but on overdrive.
Tetsuda delivers another solid performance, having to add a variety of French accents along with everything he did in the first book. I find his style quite pleasant and glad he returned for the this title as well. His narration is the only consistent positive I can say about this book.
Besides a couple of contradictory plot moves, the real problem is we have to deal with Elvin. Elvin Goh is the always been poor version of Tobin Lok in book one. Elvin, who comes from a large family, with a father on disability and an overworked mother and lots of siblings that he feels responsible for, wears suffering nobility on his sleeves as if he was Marie France, leading the peasants to storm the Bastille. He, like Tobin before him, finds the time to question the ethics of his love interest, Ray and project all of his issues around growing up poor onto Ray. While in the first book, Tobin was difficult about letting Danny treat for dinner, Elvin is all over the place, accepting wildly extravagant gifts then losing his mind over who he thinks Ray really is, shutting him out.
Elvin is always worried, always judging, and quick to drop a mask and hold Ray at arms length.
Then we have poor sap Ray, who has come to the realization that he loves Elvin and is willing to be put through this emotional torture over and over again. What is really sad is that Ray was given this great back story of how he was practically cast out of his family for not agreeing to follow in his fathers footsteps. He is lonely and seeking grounding. That would have been a great story. But I believe that Lin has created Elvin in her image, a noble warrior against entitlement and excess - her bio spells out that she likes to write about outsiders who fight to carve out their place in society. That is a noble cause, but maybe romance novels aren't the place for it, Going Public certainly suffers for being stretched to fit this ideal.
The synopsis refers to Ray's underhanded tactics and getting in trouble with the law. If you read Hard Sell, you know that Ray uses a network of connections to find out what they need to know to get the sale done. In this book the reader is faced with a most ridiculous premise. We are again deep into Jade Harbor and its owner Joanna’s ruthless pressure.
This time Ray is facing trouble on two fronts. Even knowing that Ray is semi estranged from his family, the first plot line is Ray's pushy coworker Ming, along with owner Joanna are pressing Ray to get his family to become Jade Capitol investors. Everything about Ming and this request is a source of stress for Ray. The second plot revolves around a paper plant Jade acquired and wants to spin off through a stock offering. We never get the impression that Ray had anything to do with Jade Harbor buying the paper mill, but it sure becomes his problem. Ray, Elvin and Ming get caught up in underground intrigue and suddenly Lin is trying to write a John Grisham novel. Sadly, she is also still trying to write a romance and treatise on social justice. I think she fails on all fronts.
Trying to avoid anything spoilerish. Much like what Danny faced in book one, Joanna is brutal on Ray to make everything work. She is so hard on everyone all the time. Ray goes off to the paper mill, mayhem ensues. Ray and Ming discuss a questionable plan that sends Elvin into a fit. When a really smarmy lawyer that Joanna has hired carefully words her opinion of what to do, it is essentially Ray and Ming's original plan. Joanna remains harsh and tells Ray to do what he has to do. So he does. As asked. And everything becomes his fault and the only held accountable. As the synopsis has told you where all this is headed, what becomes unbearable is Elvin's quest to let Ray know that Ray is entitled and that Elvin can never be a part of his world until Ray understands humility - but Elvin will still let Ray do extravagant things for his family, a nice double standard.
Ultimately I see this book at victim shaming. Elvin becomes this noble representation of simple people and Ray spends a lot of time groveling when he really isn't at fault. Sadly, this isn't the end of the book, there is more and it gets worse. I had to set it aside for a bit I found it so ridiculous.
The real frustration for me is that Lin wrote some really compelling moments of thriller that she completely abandoned to give Elvin the martyr's spotlight. There were great side moments with Ray and a cousin as well as his grandmother that suggested there could have been a sort of homecoming. So much potential, and what the reader gets is a highly disjointed series unfinished storylines and a lot of self righteous grand standing by Elvin. I would never recommend, unless it was to offer an example of a really disappointing book.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
