The Apprentice

by Carrie Williams

In desperate financial straits, aspiring writer Genevieve Carter takes a job as a personal assistant, only to discover that the middle-aged woman she will be working for is none other than her literary heroine, Anne Tournier. Genevieve is at first ecstatic at gaining an introduction to London literary life and Anne's many famous friends. However, her new employer expects rather more from her assistant than was implied in the advertisement, and Genevieve gradually becomes enmeshed in a web of sexual intrigue and experimentation with younger and older men and women. Then, by accident, she learns that she has been cast as the heroine of an erotic novel that Anne is writing. Determined to get her own story out first, Genevieve starts a blog where she relates her sexual liaisons to a growing and appreciative readership. Lured by the prospect of a lucrative publishing deal, a competition ensues between mistress and apprentice, one which will push Genevieve to her artistic and erotic limits.

The idea isn't too bad, but this one never seems to acquire any depth. Have another book by this author on my TBR shelf - hope it's better.

There will be no spoilers in this review, just my overall opinion. I couldn't get over this book - I absolutely loved it. It was more than erotic sex, it was a well thought out plot with character development that you love to support. Would 100% recommend.

This book had so many mistakes in it and I felt as thought it was about nothing. I get what the story was about but it literally wasn’t worth it. Will not be reading it again. UNHAUL!

Rare is the book where I’m more interested in the man than the woman. Anne was an annoying fly!

I'll review properly later - I thought the content and story line was brilliant! Just a little miffed by the ending...
