I'm not quite sure how to review The Intern. It was the first book I've read by Marni Mann. I was pulled in by the blurb. Mann's writing style is addictive and it the heat level was what I would expect from an erotic romance. I liked the plot for the most part. Where this book struck a nerve with me was Declan. I couldn't get past how wrong his inner thoughts and actions rubbed me. The man was a pig. The sexual thoughts he had, especially at the beginning were a turn off. Then, when Hannah starts working for him, he's downright nasty to her. If I were her, I would have been begging her cousins to give me a different mentor. It was horrible. I didn't really care what his excuses were. He was a condescending jerk and didn't deserve her. That being said, the end was actually really cute, and I liked how things worked out. I just couldn't get over the stuff that made me cringe. I would still read more from this author and even this series.
