I was provided a copy of Unmasking Maya by Libby Mercer in exchange for an honest review.
Unmasking Maya by Libby Mercer follows New York fashion it-girl, Maya Kirkwood. Fresh from a career-killing scandal, Maya takes a hiatus and heads to San Francisco to refresh and reinvent herself. So, when she is offered the opportunity of a life time to create an installation at a new hot tech company, she jumps at the chance. Well, things don’t turn out so well. Derek Whitley, the CEO of the company, quickly becomes her nemesis. Sure, he is smoldering hot but inside, he is colder than ice. But, why does she still feel an odd sense of attraction to him? As the two of them spend more and more time together, it becomes obvious that there is something more then what meets the eye. Sparks fly and presumptions and old resentments come tumbling down, but after one last secret is revealed, will it bring them closer together? Or further apart?
Unmasking Maya is a fun, quick and witty ride and I loved every second of it. I think Libby does a fantastic job at constructing her characters and making them seem real. Right off the bat I was intrigued by Derek and I really like the fact that although he is physically appealing, there is definitely more than what meets the eye with him. And Maya, she is such a hoot and I definitely enjoyed her character as well. Overall, this book is real light and fun and definitely enjoyable. And if you like mystery and intrigue, you will definitely enjoy the secret aspect of this book.
[Rating: 4/5]
