Leanne Banks - Feet First (Bellagio Series, Book #1)

It's all about the shoes! Designing footwear is Jenny Prillaman's life, so getting the plum assignment to create a socialite's wedding shoes is a dream come true. Dealing with the heiress is another story. So is staying away from her dreamy new boss, a man too hot to deny for long, despite Jenny's best intentions of keeping her business away from his pleasure.
Making Ballagio, Inc. an international success is executive Marc Waterson's career ambition. But his life's desire is to find the right woman and settle down. Too bad Jenny would rather follow in his corporate footsteps than try on the glass slippers of a company wife.
At least Marc's got one thing going for him -- the way to a woman's heart is through a really great pair of shoes!

Feet first was a fun read to pass my time over the weekend. I admit that I expected more from the story and never fully got into Marc Waterson's character or was able to really visualize him. I did like Jenny's character a lot, she was funny, giving, sweet and pretty must said exactly what she wanted to - and got what she wanted! Marc's character though seemed rude at times... as in forgetting Jenny's name so much - and the fact that he didn't even notice her until she became "sexy" kind of bothered me. All together the book was a pretty good read though and there were times that I cracked up and something either one of them said - but when it comes to the hero character... I was more sizzle on his end, more flirting and sexiness... which I just didn’t’ get from Marc at all!! 

I also wish she would have introduced and describe Walker & Tara more into the first story, to play them up for their book, Underfoot. Hopefully Walker isn’t as much a stickler in his book then he seemed to be in Feet First.
