"Saying 'I notice you're a nerd' is like saying, 'Hey, I notice that you'd rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you'd rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe that there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan. Why is that?' In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even 'lame' is kind of lame. Saying 'You're lame' is like saying 'You walk with a limp.' Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he's done all right for himself."— John Green

The Summary

What happens when your next door neighbor is the hottest, most notorious playboy in all of South Beach?

Reece Rowe is on hiatus from respectability. Before she returns to her stable, boring existence of charity events and dating predictable, stuffy suitors who are only interested in getting closer to the wealthy family who adopted her, she’s going to get a taste of what she’s been missing. She screws up her courage and heads to Vincent Ferguson’s office to find out what all the women in South Beach already seem to know about him.

Once CEO Vin Ferguson’s tech company goes public, he’ll have proved he’s no longer the poor, gritty kid from the wrong side of the tracks. But, citing his bad boy reputation, some financial backers waver, and his friends suggest dating a more respectable woman to improve his image. Ridiculous. Because delectable but snooty socialites, like his next door neighbor, are way out of his league.

And then, Reese walks through his office door and makes him an offer. To say his jaw hits the floor is an understatement.

And he can’t believe what she just proposed...

My Review

While I am sometimes in the mood for a long drawn out romance, most of the time I love short, sweet, and sexy romance novels that I can devour in one day by the pool or snuggled up in bed.  Reforming the CEO by Marisa Cleveland delivers on that desire in all the right ways.

Light in the angst, but heavy in the sex, this is one steamy South Beach-set romance that you will love to dive into.  Vin is a tech-wiz, who built his company from the ground up;  Reece is a society queen from the family of South Beach.  Both hide painful issues from their past, and their lives were more entwined than either knew.  But with the past hanging over them, a simple business arrangement might just lead to love.

Reece suggests sex in a multitude of interesting places, and in exchange Vin requests 6 dates to help re-vamp his image from playboy to Mr. Respectable.  Reece is getting her fun summer and Vin is helping secure his company's future --- win-win for the two.  I really loved the dynamic between Reece and Vin.  It was equal, which I always want in a romance.  I hate when the man is the Alpha, making everything about him.  The chemistry between the two was fire; those fantasy sex scenes were surely steamy, but I also enjoyed the non-sex dates.  Reece and Vin just clicked together.

Overall, I felt it could've been fleshed out more, but if there are more books set in this world (which maaaaaay happen based on the other characters) I would for sure read more!  Fun, quick, and hot if you're looking for a new romance to snuggle with, check out Reforming the CEO by Marisa Cleveland.
