Candace Gleason passed the bar, landed a great job, and is making a killer salary—basically, all of her dreams are coming true. Until she’s assigned to keep the boss’s petulant son out of trouble.

Jack Morrison is the rebellious black sheep of a mighty real estate family. He runs a nonprofit whose mission is to save poor people from evil corporations, like the one his own family owns. He is obnoxious, ridiculously charming, and insanely hot. He is the bane of Candace’s very existence.

Sparks fly from the moment they meet. Candace suddenly has more to worry about than keeping Jack out of jail. She has to keep him out of her heart.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Kay is a middle child, an extrovert, and a writer. She daydreams a lot. She has a relatively diverse resume. Some highlights include: park ranger, Special Olympics fundraiser, museum marketing manager, and college professor. Some of those jobs definitely influence her writing, as do the places she's lived.

Oh the places she's lived! They make the resume look boring. They include (but are not limited to) the suburbs outside Detroit, Yellowstone National Park, a small town in northern Montana, an even smaller town on the Utah/Colorado border, Las Vegas, and San Francisco.

Kay started writing as a kid, but never got serious about it until she spent a lonely winter in a village with just thirteen other people at 8,000 feet watching the snow drift. Then she put her computer keyboard to work, and she's been at it ever since.

A lot of people ask Kay why she writes romance. The answer is simple. She is in love with the idea of love. She loves to be in love. She loves to see people be in love. She loves to watch people fall in love. It’s all amazing all the time. And the thing about love is – everyone gets it at some point in their life, in some way, from someone. It is a universal thing.

I loved the ethical solidness of the characters and I loved that it ended so happily, even for the 'villain' of the tale. Totally enjoyable and well written m.

She's a lawyer. He's an architect whose life is renovating the old buildings in San Francisco for affordable housing. She learns she has been hired by his father's law firm to keep him out of trouble. The whole cast of characters in this book are unique in their own ways, and that adds a lot to the story. Great writing brings their story to life and draws the reader in.
Anxiously awaiting the next book in the series!

3.0 out of 5 stars Don't Let Him Go by Kay Harris
Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2017
This was received through Reading Alley in exchange for an honest review.

The entire story was told in first person, mostly through Candace’s POV. A portion of the book was devoted to Jack’s first person POV. This is book 1 in the ‘I Want Morrison’ series, so called because each book tells the story on one Morrison sibling. This is Jack’s story, the eldest Morrison child.

Candance Gleason…Candie to her dad and Jack…has finally achieved her dream. She is a new lawyer at a top firm, ready to work her way up the corporate ladder. Just when she thinks she has it all figured out, she is assigned to…Jack Morrison.

Activist, devilishly handsome, reckless, he is the bane of his family’s empire. And a major thorn to Candance. Except now she is hired to keep him out of jail, trouble, and the media spotlight. Not an easy task for someone who delights in thumbing his nose at anything and anyone who gets in his way. Someone who seemingly lives to taunt and tease.

One the surface, this looks like a case of rich kid rebellion. It goes much deeper. Jack’s arrogance is actually a driving passion to make positive changes in other’s lives. Underprivileged people’s lives. He is not above using his privileges to aid in his quest, to help those less fortunate, those being beleaguered by his own ‘type of people’.

Ms. Harris does a fantastic job of creating Jack, a multi-layered character who has so much good to offer if one can see past what seems like obvious character flaws. What I did not care for, and what keeps my rating a little lower, is the constant use of the character’s names in dialogue. While I personally like the name Jack, and see the need to identify who is speaking to whom, I do not care to see their names each and every time they are spoken to. There are better literary tools to identify who is being talked to. This is truly a case of “less is more”. IMHO.

Next, initially I found the whole premise of a family–specifically a wealthy, driven, family like the Morrison’s, hiring their newest firm lawyer to “babysit” their grown son a bit farfetched. If they waited, and gave him enough rope, he would surely hang himself, get jailed for a lengthy stay, and it would put an end to the activist activities that plague the family. It would be must cheaper, quicker, and easier than wasting a babysitter to keep him leashed. For that reason alone, I nearly stopped reading.

However, I am glad I kept on. The story goes much deeper than that summary. The Morrison family does not want Jack in jail, or in any trouble. To avoid spoilers, let me just say when I kept reading, and got to know the family, and Jack’s motivations, better, the loyalty and bonds between them–and the sibling rivalry–between them all became clear.

Lastly, the chemistry between Candace and Jack felt real. Their dialogue–sans the repetitive name usage–was witty and fun. The shift from irritation to attraction was gradual enough to make it believable. Candace’s move from realizing all her dreams to inheriting a pain in the butt to falling for him once she witnesses his motivations make her real as well. The pacing is great. Candace and Jack’s opposite personalities make a great mesh.

Overall, I enjoyed this book 1 in the I Want Morrison series. It is a stand alone book with no cliffhangers. I would like to give it 3 1/2 stars.

4.0 out of 5 stars “How did one say ‘I’m your new babysitter’ to a grown man?”
Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2017
This is an opposites attract romance done right. Jack has been an activist for a while now and he doesn’t hesitate to face anyone in order to protect what he believes in, even if that means going up against his own father’s law firm or landing in jail… many many times … On the other hand, Candance has her own goals, working on a high paying job was her dream that actually came true when she got hired at a prestigious law firm. The only problem was that the law firm was the one Jack’s father has and the first assignment for Candace was to keep Jack out of jail even if that means stopping him from reaching his goals.

There were plenty of funny scenes in this book since it didn’t take long for Jack and Candance to annoy each other, but what i liked most in this story was the way their relationship progressed. It wasn’t like the usual repetitive cycle of hate - sex - hate again until the characters decide that they are in love just because we have reached the end of the book. In “Don’t let him go” we can see that the main character are annoying each other in the beginning, but they never do unforgivable things and it doesn’t take long for them to learn more about the reasons that led each of them to act this way.

Little by little, they start to understand each other and they manage not only to improve their relationship, but also change the way they are thinking and improve the way they communicate with other people too. I was so happy to read about this couple because there was no overdrawn drama between them, they always communicated, they didn’t hesitate to acknowledge and express their feelings and while they did strive to improve one another, they always respected each other’s individuality.

“I accept who you are. Your passion. Your determination. Your freaking stubborness. It’s all part of you and i love you. All of you. Even when you are a complete pain in the ass.”

For those of you wondering if there is any love triangle in this book, i would say no there isn’t. When Candance didn’t know very well Jack, she agreed to go on a date with another man just because there wasn’t any reason at the time to say no, but the date didn’t happen because she had to go get Jack out of jail. Even though they agreed to go on a date again that never happened and after she got close to Jack, not only she told him everything about the other man, but she promised to inform that man that she was now seeing someone else, a promise that she indeed fulfilled.

I voluntarily reviewed the free copy i received via Reading Alley.

This is a story about a lawyer and an activist. Candace is a lawyer raised by activists and yearns to get a six figure job. She is so excited to get a position with Morrison law firm until she finds out her job is to babysit the owner's son. She is to keep Jack out of jail.
Jack is an activist. He can't help but constantly get in bad "arresting" situations.
This is a wonderful love story. Well written. Thoroughly enjoyed this book.

4.0 out of 5 stars trapped.. The title fooled me.

I normally don't read 'this kind of thing', but one gets trapped.. The title fooled me.
It's not bad, quite imaginative, reasonable story..
Of course none of these people have much to do with LAYKI (life-as-you-know-it) but so what? I spose things can happen like that.
But just imagine doing what you want to do, enjoying it, getting an option to give it up, then getting a chance to do something else that you will enjoy, getting a wonderful girl/boy-friend, it all ends up wonderful; "jus' wonnerful'. Etc.
You get what I mean.
