Have you heard of the Devereaux Duet by Sadie Rose? Push is the first installment, and we find out how Ollie and Roman meet. Not only that, but we see how their relationship builds, and the conflict that pushes them apart. Let me just say this book was so good! Seriously. If you enjoy age gap romances that take place at the work place, and one of the people in the relationship is a billionaire, then you need to grab this book!
It was Olivia's first day at her new job. Before she went to the office though, she swung by the coffee shop that her boyfriend, Jeff, always frequents. Their relationship was having issues, so she decided to surprise him. She knows he always stops in, so it's a no brainer. That is until he walks in, and he's not alone. Olivia tries to sneak out, but runs smack into another person, and spills her drink all over herself. It is then that her boyfriend sees her, and heads her way. The man that Olivia ran into, jumps into action, and pretends to be her partner. And that is how Roman and Olivia (Ollie) met. But they would soon run into each other yet again. After all, Olivia is now working for Devereaux Industries. Little does she know that the Roman she met this morning is Roman Devereaux. As in the owner of the company! Of course Olivia doesn't only meet Roman that day. She also meets Raymond, and he is about to become one of her best friends. From the initial run-in with Olivia, Roman has become intrigued, and he is going to make his intentions clear. Can they have a successful relationship while keeping it separate from work? Or will other issues jump in their path and push them apart?

I loved seeing how Roman and Ollie's story began. From that initial meetup at the coffee shop, to the discovery at work and Olivia's introduction, to her blossoming friendship with Raymond, and her continuing friendship with Madison. It was all spectacular. Plus it seemed like Roman would just randomly appear where she was, and that forced proximity helped grow their attraction.
Of course no romance is without issues. Roman and Ollie definitely had some moments that they needed to work through. The biggest being the secret that Ollie was keeping. Now did she mean to keep this a secret? Eh, not really. The right time to tell Roman what was going on just hadn't happened. So when things blew up, the blew up in epic proportion. One party may have gone a bit over the top, reaction wise. That conflict though was just a stepping stone though, and I have a feeling that bigger things are going to happen. Yet this issue did push them apart, so it will be interesting to find out how they reunite. But we do know who helps play a role in that reunification!
So yes, I loved Roman and Ollie's story. That's just obvious. BUT, I also enjoyed getting to know bits and pieces about Madison and Raymond. Those two seem like great side kicks. I am intrigued by both, that is for certain. Then there is Miller. He intrigues me as well. While he maybe doing protection work for Roman and Ollie, I sense there is more to his story, and I hope we find that out.
Thankfully I don't have to wait too long to see how this story ends, as Pull releases on February 25. Bring on the conclusion to this story. I am so ready!
Thank you for taking time to read my thoughts on Push. I do hope you'll give this story a read, and perhaps fall for the characters. I will tell you that it is a quick read. So if you're looking for a book that is under 200 pages, grab Push!
