Six months out of law school, Rachel Pearce is completely disillusioned by her job hunt. Despite pounding the pavement with her Ivy League degree in hand, her job prospects are no brighter than the day she graduated. Then in a chance meeting with a former acquaintance, eccentric young millionaire Henry Walker, Rachel finds an unexpected opportunity: Henry is looking for a personal secretary. Swallowing her pride, Rachel sets aside her law firm aspirations for what she envisions as secretarial work—mountains of paperwork and filing. But when she finds her most demanding duty to be daily cookie runs for her new boss, she’s baffled by her unconventional job responsibilities. As she’s pulled into Henry’s delightful whims, caught in a whirlwind of private jets and fancy dinners, Rachel finds herself inexplicably drawn to this handsome and charismatic man. But reality always has a way of intruding, and logic tells her that this adventure can’t last. When real life inevitably comes calling, Rachel must decide if she’s willing to trade in her dream of success in the courtroom for a chance at love.
This book was a pretty fast and easy read. It had a cute writing style but the storyline I felt was a little predictable. Plus the fact there were only a few character of the book. Like when Rachel works at the office for Henry, it seems they are the only two people ever there. I found that a bit odd. But I would recommend it.
I did read that this book is a kind of sequel to another book by Aubrey Mace. This book stands alone but I would look into reading the first one which is about her friend, Shannon (Entitled: "Before the Clock Strikes Thirty")
