The Assistant

2014

by Elle Brace

Emily Johnson needs this job. What she doesn’t need, is all the aggravation that comes with being the assistant of the world’s most eligible bachelor.

Adrian Kingston, a 25-year-old billionaire and Emily’s boss, is known for being difficult. He works late at night and early in the day – and expects his assistant to do the same. The only thing he does for fun is, well, women. The spoiled, wealthy playboy gets whatever he wants from whomever he wants.

Some mornings, women swing in and out of his office, one after the other. And as if he couldn’t get enough girls, he even tosses his flirtation and sexual innuendo Emily’s way.

Good thing Emily knows how to keep her priorities straight. A flirty, devastatingly handsome boss? His jealous girlfriends? Her demanding workload? Emily has enough on her plate! She really doesn’t need all the headache.

What she doesn’t understand though, is this: Why does Adrian seem to need her? After all, Emily Johnson, while beautiful, is not exactly Adrian’s usual type. What could he possibly want with her?

Is this just another game played by a bored, rich billionaire trying to win the only girl who has the guts to tell him ‘No?’ Or could Adrian Kingston really be falling in love with The Assistant?

A sweet, sexy contemporary romance for new adults.

Boy Meets Girl

2004

by Meg Cabot

Meet Kate Mackenzie. She:

  • Works for the T.O.D. (short for Tyrannical Office Despot, also known as Amy Jenkins, Director of the Human Resources Division at the New York Journal).
  • Is sleeping on the couch because her boyfriend of ten years refuses to commit.
  • Can't find an affordable studio apartment anywhere in New York City.
  • Thinks things can't get any worse.

They can. Because:

  • The T.O.D. is making her fire the most popular employee in the paper's senior staff dining room.
  • That employee is now suing Kate for wrongful termination.
  • Now Kate has to give a deposition in front of Mitch Hertzog, the scion of one of Manhattan's wealthiest law families, who embraces everything Kate most despises ... but also happens to have a nice smile and a killer bod.

The last thing anybody—least of all Kate Mackenzie—expects to find in legal arbitration is love. But that's the kind of thing that can happen when... Boy meets girl.
