The Assistant

by Cheri Baker

How far would you go to get the life you’ve always dreamed of?

High up in Seattle’s most luxurious office tower, a powerful woman conceals a dangerous secret. As the CEO of a prestigious staffing firm, Dana Duke offers exquisitely trained executive assistants to the city’s business elite.

In corporate America, where the winner takes all, talent isn’t enough to guarantee a victory. That’s why Dana offers a unique set of services to her most ambitious clients: corporate espionage, psychological manipulation, and blackmail.

Meet Jessica Warne, a recent college grad determined to succeed on her own terms. Stuck in a dead-end job and drowning in student loan debt, she’s eager to climb the corporate ladder. When Dana offers her a chance at a better life, it seems her troubles might be over. But are they?

The Tracker

Liked the book but had I known it was going to require an addition book or more. I would not have opened the first page. Never leave the reader hanging, just not good business!

I started out really enjoying this book, the characters and their interrelationships, the story and setting, but things kept changing. New characters kept being added, and many of them turned out to be not who they pretended to be. There was a lot of lying going on. And everything kept falling on the shoulders of the main character. And then the story kept getting darker, but when the book ended, the story wasn't finished. You have to read the next book to perhaps get the answers. I hate being played along like this and so I recommend this book only to the reader who has unlimited patience.

Absolutely Brilliant❣️

Binge-worthy❣️You are hooked as soon as you start reading...
Very anxious to read more . . .
Next please🐿️ More and more difficult to put down . . .

SPOILED for me by the author's abuse of Almighty GOD's Name and the abuse of the word HOLY. This is blasphemy and is NEVER acceptable. Minus 1 *
That said, the story was otherwise well crafted.
I'm looking forward to reading future stories - without Blasphemy, please
