Reviews for Maid in the USA (Pierce's Story)
65 ratings5 reviews
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5The story was OK and I found the characters interesting, but it felt a little off. I think if it had gone through some more editing, the story might have stood out better. Overall, it wasn't terrible, but I have no interest in reading it again.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5All though there are a few cliches in this story, I gave it 4 stars because of the flow, characters and the overall warm fuzzy feeling it gave me when I reached the happily ever after ending.I've been on a bit of a romance kick as of late and so I'm looking for that special something in the story. I will admit that I wanted to see Celine be a little bit more wary about Pierce's initial offer but other than that, I thought her reactions and behavior fit the story.Pierce was interesting because he defied my idea of what kind of person/character he was going to be when he started waving around money and telling Celine that he needed her help. He was a little high-handed but that passed as the story unfolded.Would I recommend this? Yes, I would.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Was a great romance. Kept me entranced. It took so many twists that you never knew where it was going and that kept you into it.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Well not bad.. My heart ache for the little angel Kylie and not Celine btw. Lol. Actually it's a nice book but I hate the ending. It seems like everything just lump into a chapter. How the wedding bells ringing etc. I would love to see more acts between those 2 instead. Too bad.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Alright, nothing special.

EPILOGUE
CHAPTER ONE
Celine hummed a love song as she pushed the housekeeping trolley down the carpeted hallway. Today was going to be a great day, she told herself, no matter that she was stuck in Cambridge for yet another summer, when she would much rather be back home in France with her mother and her two rowdy little brothers.
She smiled as she thought about Marc and Sylvan. The ten and twelve-year-old boys were probably driving her maman crazy at this very moment, with their constant pranks and rough play. If only she could be home with them. She was the only one who could keep those two in check.
She stopped at the door to suite 1206. No time to dwell on that now. She had twelve suites to clean in the next few hours and she wanted to make a good impression. For the last two summers she’d worked at small hotels where the pay was minimal and the hours long. This summer, she’d been lucky to land a job at one of the largest hotels on Main Street. She would be earning almost fifty percent more than she’d made at her previous job. It was still a far cry from adequate but, if she kept to a tight budget, she might just be able to save enough to go home for Christmas.
Celine knocked on the door. No answer. She knocked again, just to be sure, then she stuck her keycard in the slot and pushed it open. Gathering up a handful of towels and tiny bottles of toiletries, she tucked them in the crook of her arm, grabbed the handle of the vacuum cleaner then backed into the room.
The presidential suite was magnificent, with a spacious living room filled with antique furniture and ornate carpeting. A sparkling crystal chandelier hung from the ceiling. Celine paused to admire the elegant room. Oh, to be able to live like this. She chuckled to herself. It would probably take a month’s salary for her to pay for one night in this suite.
Now, where to start? She had an armful of towels, so the bathroom it was. Still humming, she pushed the door and walked into the bedroom.
At that moment, she heard a click, and the bathroom door opened. She gasped and the towels fell from her hands. Standing in front of her, his face hidden by a thick towel, was a tall, muscular and very naked man.
Celine screamed.
What the...
The man dropped the towel and stared back at her in obvious shock.
I...I’m sorry,
Celine said, as she backed away. I thought the suite was empty. I’m so sorry.
The man was staring at her with eyes that were shockingly green. I was in the shower,
he said, raking his fingers through his dark brown hair, so if you knocked, I wouldn’t have heard a thing.
Mon Dieu. He was standing there, tall and lean and every inch a man; all that Celine could see, even as he began to turn away. She dropped her eyes, her face hot with embarrassment, then she turned to flee.
Wait. I want to talk to you.
Was he serious? She would not turn back to talk to a naked man, no matter how handsome. She was back in the living room and had already grabbed hold of her vacuum cleaner when his voice stopped her.
Don’t leave,
he said, his voice imperious and bold. He sounded like the kind of man who expected to be obeyed. He was standing in the bedroom doorway and this time, thankfully, he had the towel wrapped around his waist. Wait for me in the living room. I’ll get dressed.
Without bothering to wait for a reply, he turned and went back into the bedroom, leaving Celine staring at the empty doorway. Who did this man think he was, to be ordering her around like that? She frowned as her thoughts raced wildly. Come to think of it, that was a good question. Who was he, really? He had to be a very important person, or else a very rich one, to be staying in the presidential suite of one of the most expensive hotels in town. Her heart pounded as a new thought crowded her mind. Was he going to come back and reprimand her for violating his privacy? Was he going to report her, or worse, get her fired? Her palms grew damp and she slid them down the sides of her uniform. She couldn’t afford to lose this job, she just couldn’t. When he came back, she would have to plead her case.
In less than a minute, the man was walking out of the bedroom in dark slacks and a white shirt which he buttoned casually as he approached. His long, lean feet were bare.
Have a seat,
he said, and beckoned to the couch by the window.
Excuse me?
Celine stood stock-still, her hand on the vacuum cleaner, her eyes wide, as she stared back at him. Why was he offering her a seat? If he was going to reprimand her, why not do it quickly and let her go? He must really plan to lecture her. She decided to speak up, maybe appease him before he got the chance to blast her.
I’m very sorry for barging in on you like this,
she said, her voice earnest. It won’t ever happen again. I’ll be back later to clean your room.
With that, she started toward the door, pushing the vacuum cleaner before her. Maybe, if she made a quick exit, nothing more would come of this. At least, that was what she hoped.
She was halfway to the door, when he laughed, a deep husky laugh. It stopped her in her tracks. She turned to stare at him.
No need to fly so fast,
he said, tucking the ends of his shirt into his trousers. "I’m not going to bite. I just want to
