It’s no secret that I am a huge Vi Keeland fan but there was just something about Egomaniac that made this book stand out from the rest. With her sinful and steamy prose, Vi captured our hearts with her charismatic and relatable characters. She showcased a love story that was a symphony of heat, passion, and raw vulnerability.

Drew Jagger is a successful family law attorney. Yeah, he is one of those big shot NYC divorce attorneys that means business. And so when he comes back from his Hawaiian vacation, he is surprised to discover a gorgeous redheaded woman in his office floor. As it turns out, this stranger happened to get conned into renting an office that wasn't supposed to be rented out. And so feeling bad for Emerie Rose, he decides to help her out sort of the mess and file a police report.

And I suppose all of your women are fast asleep after you take care of them.”“Damn straight. I’m like a superhero. The Prolactinator.”



Emerie Rose came out to New York City to start her career and also to earn the affection of a colleague. And so with very little money, Emerie finds herself discovering that the Big Apple took a big bite into her life savings. Not only was she a victim of a rental scam but nothing seems to be going right for her, that is until she meets Drew Jagger.

How do I apply for the job?”“The job?” She actually seemed confused. I thought I was pretty damn clear. “Of sexual partner. I think we should have sex.”

After striking some kind of friendship, Drew temporarily lets Emerie use one of his office spaces for her personal office. And soon, these two finds themselves fighting an attraction to one another. Drew is well aware that Emerie is hung up on a man. It takes Emerie awhile to see that her crush and infatuation with this man is nothing compared to her friendship and attraction to Drew.

When Drew makes it known to Emerie that he wants her, fireworks are going off. Yes, I am talking about hot, dirty, steamy sex takes place. And for the first time in a long time, Drew begins to open his heart to Emerie. But what happens when Drew’s ex-wife comes back into the picture and stirs up drama? Will everything that Drew has loved be taken away? And will Emerie be able to finally show Drew that he is indeed worth the risk and the fight even though he is an egomaniac?



I am in utter bliss right now. Yes, I practically inhaled this book in one sitting. This book owned me. Drew Jagger was the epitome of ultimate book boyfriend when it came to his affection for Emerie Rose. Did I also mention that this egomaniac has a heart of gold? So if you are looking for a love story that blends heart, romance, and steam then this book is definitely for you.
