Manage episode 299097771 series 2522956
She's brought her masters' degree in performance piano and her new Trans Am to the bright lights big city Detroit to... engage in corporate espionage for her eighteenth cousin once removed. He's a 36 year old high flying executive with the world and all the women in it at his feet. Together they do crimes cry a lot have a gross 80's boss-secretary relationship.
This is obviously gonna have some content warnings. In addition to the urrrrgh of the whole workplace romance thing, there's also some child abandonment, some chucking kids into the Doberman enclosure, some ludicrous it's-a me, Mario! Italian stereotypes, some sexual callousness - the whole thing is kind of a mess. The biggest problem a lot of people will have with this is that she's presented as REALLY young. Younger than her chronological age. She keeps getting mistaken for a teenager. It does have good outfits though!
Check out our website for this one to see some international covers for this book, which are as usual amazing and also bananas!
