This book is the author debut into the romance world. And wow this book was amazing. I read it in one day. Rose and Xander both come from trouble past and both have major PDST. The growth these two have is amazing. This book left on a open for book two. I can't wait for more from this author.

First of all, let’s talk about this beautiful cover?!!! I love it. It’s gorgeous!

The story is an interesting one. It was a bit harder for to get into it, because it’s a bit complex. Or the characters are more complex than usual. At least for me.
Zander visits one of his companies and meets his employee Rose. Very intrigued by her and her quiet but also genius nature, he tries to get to know her better.
This story ends on a cliffhanger, kind of, but not too bad. The conclusion about these two will be interesting for sure.



I kindly received an arc and voluntarily left a review

This is Vikki Jay’s debut novel and I have to say I am thoroughly impressed. I love a good office romance but this is so much more than that. Rose has several issues that she’s had to work through in her life. It’s caused her to become closed off and her anxiety runs her life. She’s super smart but not socially adept, until she meets Zander. He too has a past that he’s not faced because it’s too hard. I love how they pull the best out of each other and also allow the other to have their quirks without judgment. Can Rose overcome her feeling of not being good enough? Can Zander face his past and give Rose a part of himself that he’s never given to anyone else? This is definitely a book to read, especially if you love a smart, nerdy heroine and sexy as hell hero.

Beautiful Rose - Vikki Jay {5 Beautiful Stars!}

What a fantastic romance I'm blown away by Vikki Jay's debut novel Beautiful Rose it is obsessively sexy, nerdy and oh my god flirty!

Officially falling in love with Zander as my favorite hero so far of 2022 or should I say *coughs* wolverine hero ;)

Quirky and Innocent Rose has been surviving her past everyday since it happened ridden with anxiety and timid of strangers that is until she meets her CEO Boss Zander, who is bent on breaking down every one of Rose's walls and finding out every bit of the marvel she is.

A very sweet romantic read beyond the beautiful of this story is watching Zander and Rose who drawn together by attraction, begin to heal each other's heart as they fall in love. Beautiful Rose has the tenderness and made this slow burn romance melt every bit of my kindred heart and I'm so glad they'll be more of Rose & Zander because frankly I'm not ready to let go.

Thanks to Vikki Jay and Give Me Books for gifting me this phenomenal debut ARC.
