Sexy/icy boss and saccharine “smart girl” romance is one of my favorite tropes, and Never Say Never fits the bill...mostly, but I found myself wishing for more detail on several points:

• Camila's work—little snippets or details to understand what was so demanding of her time and how she was perceived by the world at large.
• Is Camila like Regina Mills—kind of evil and also broken inside? Is she more like Miranda Priestly—ruthless, cunning, always ahead of the game, and the envy of all?
• Beyond Camila’s prestige, and her physical attractiveness (though there wasn't much in the way of description of her appearance beyond her clothing choices), what actually made Emily want to be with her?

The book was timelined to be a slow burn, but their mutual attraction wasn't developed enough, and (apart from the taboo of dating a younger woman and a subordinate) it was unclear why Camila was so hesitant to move things forward with Emily (though there was one comment from Camila about her reasons right at the end, it felt unsupported by the rest of the book).

The potential was there with their chemistry, but I finished this book with a lot of unanswered questions that distracted me from appreciating the pairing's eventual union.
