Mr. Big Shot Kindle Edition

4.5 out of 5 stars 4,087 ratings

Biting banter, fake relationships, and illicit workplace rendezvous—anything goes in this romantic comedy from USA Today bestselling author R.S. Grey.

While most little girls grow up idolizing Ariel or Belle, I was banging a plastic gavel and pretending to be Judge Judy. I spent my summers divorcing Barbie and Ken and splitting their Dreamhouse assets. Now, my goal to become the very best acquisitions lawyer at the top firm in Chicago is within reach.

I’m one month into my big-girl job at Elwood Hoyt, venti Starbucks in hand, ready to take on the day. The sleek elevator doors are about to close…then
he steps in after me. Hudson Rhodes—the one senior partner I was told to avoid at all costs—just so happens to be the heartless villain I’m assigned to work under.

Ever since he found out who I am—
the Scarlett Elwood—we’ve been enemies, the sort who constantly bicker and bark, take jabs in the boardroom, and occasionally pop up shirtless in each other’s steamy dreams. Y’know, that kind. He has to know I could run to my dad at any time and demand his firing, but his confident smirk says he knows I’d never give him the satisfaction.

The elevator chimes as we reach our floor, and I feel his broad shoulders pull even with mine. Fury mixes with fear, hatred with lust. He turns to briefly hold my gaze before confidently stepping out in front. His message is clear:

If I want to reach my goal, I’m going to have to go through him first.

BOOKWORM REVIEW: Mr. Big Shot by R.S Grey
RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ SPICE: 🔥🔥.5 This is going to be on my top 5 R.S. Grey reads. It reminded me so much of why I love her books. Hudson Rhodes is no babysitter, but when one of the original partners at his law firm asks him to keep a close eye on his daughter who is one of the upcoming mergers and acquisitions associates. Scarlett Elwood wanted no favors. She already lived under her father and brothers' shadows, but she wanted to make a name for herself. That road to success apparently goes through notorious devil-in-a-suit Hudson. Just when he had thought he had her pegged to be someone with a silver spoon in her mouth, she smashes his workplace expectations and becomes one of the best assets in his team and in the firm. A workplace friendship develops, but it is really only to mask their true feelings for each other. I ADORED THIS READ. It is a classic R.S. Grey read, taking two people who were supposed to have this big ball of animosity toward each other and transforming it organically into an unforgettable romance. I love the transition from enemies to friends to lovers. Yes, there are SO MANY HR red flags, but we willingly turn our heads because Hudson and Scarlett's charismatic connection is just GOLD. My other favorite part of R.S. Grey books is the ensemble cast, and this group in this one has to be one of my favorites. Lucy, Scarlett's family, and even the antagonistic associates brought so much to the story and created depth to the characters that made me fall in love with them even more.

    RS Grey has outdone herself with her latest work, creating a literary gem that stands out as her best book to date. The story is not just well-developed; it's a delightful rollercoaster of humor, romance, and heartwarming moments that will keep readers hooked from start to finish.

    What makes this novel truly exceptional is its cast of characters. Hudson and Scarlett, the main protagonists, are not only relatable but also incredibly endearing. Their chemistry leaps off the pages, making readers root for their love story. However, Grey doesn't stop there; she skillfully crafts side characters that are as vivid and captivating as the leads. Moira, the cynical cat, and Lucy, the wise witty old secretary, steal the show with their unique personalities and witty dialogues. Each character is so well-defined that readers can't help but become emotionally invested in their lives.

    The humor infused into the narrative is RS Grey's forte, and in this book, she hits the mark perfectly. The witty banter, hilarious situations, and clever one-liners will have readers laughing out loud, creating an immersive reading experience that is as entertaining as it is heartening.

    As I turned the final page, I found myself overwhelmed with a bittersweet feeling. I didn't want the story to end; I had become attached to these characters and their world. Grey's writing has the power to make readers feel a genuine connection to the story, leaving them with a sense of longing for more.

    In conclusion, RS Grey's latest novel is a testament to her talent as a storyteller. With well-developed characters, a hilarious narrative, and a touch of heartwarming moments, this book is a must-read for anyone looking for a delightful escape into the world of romance and laughter. I eagerly await her next masterpiece, hoping for another chance to be captivated by her storytelling prowess.

    I really enjoyed Hudson and Scarlett. Their chemistry was intense from the start. I liked that she was supposed to stay away from him, but that didn't quite work out. The way she was treated by the other first years was maddening, but she was a tough cookie. I loved her independence and fighting spirit. They built a strong friendship to start, which I really enjoyed. This was a really good story.

    R.S. Grey is the QUEEN of enemies-to-lovers. She is masterful in getting in those jabs & sarcastic digs and then ever so slowly transitioning the MCs into lover status. Mr. Big Shot is no exception!

    I liked Scarlett from the beginning & laughed when Hudson’s first line was “I’m a villain”. Classic. They were funny, but also had tension & you could tell they cared for one another. While he tried his hardest to fight his feelings for her, even convincing himself that he was sick one day because of them, Hudson was protective and kind and supportive.

    The side characters of Lucy, along with Hudson & Scarlett’s families were a great addition to the story and everything flowed really well.

    Read this book in practically one sitting!

    This book was so fun and easy to read. I liked most of the characters and enjoyed the development of characters and plot. But ultimately that last line we get from her dad just weirds me out.

    Like I don't usually like meddling characters because it feels like bulldozing, but this wasn't even bulldozing it was creepy. And it was literally only creepy because it was her father and not another female relative doing the meddling.

    I don't know it just rubs me the wrong way to think a father set up a situation so that one of his employees (who's older and more experienced than the daughter) could wind up with her.

    Otherwise fun.

    Grumpy boss is one thing, but MR BIG SHOT is the guy that has the underlings sweating and scurrying in his presence - and he loves it. When the boss’s daughter is assigned to his legal team all intraoffice resentment and gossip seems directed at her, but she is the kind of woman that rises above it.

    The tone goes from flirty to intense to “hands off, we work together” so you’ll enjoy the journey. I can’t end the review without commenting on Moira. I’m not a cat person, but I loved this character.

    Reviewed in Canada on February 7, 2024
    I usually don’t gush but, this book was such an enjoyable read that I have broken my rule and decided to gush just a little bit. Fantastic, multifaceted characters, humourous banter and a perfectly paced plot combine to make this slow burn romance a very engrossing read. Scarlett and Hudson are workaholics who are great with the legalese but not so great when it comes to interacting with others. Their social awkwardness whenever they find themselves in a situation outside of their comfort zones made for many amusing interactions. I loved every moment of this book.
