Summary
"You’re alright entertainment though,” she shrugs.
“Well, that just shows you how little you know me.” She takes a step toward Christen. “You see, I can be far more than ‘alright’ entertainment. Not giving up that easily.”
"That's a shame."
Tobin takes another step forward. “I thought most women admire persistence.”
“Well that shows you how little you know me. I’m not most women.”

Summary
Young and upcoming author Therese Belivet is just starting to find her place in the world, finding time to work on her newest book while juggling jobs to keep herself afloat. When she lands a job working as the personal assistant to Carol Aird, Managing Partner and co founder of the RossAird Law-firm. Therese thinks she’s got it made- a stable job (at least for a year) with good pay and health benefits, I mean she feels like she’s living the dream.
But when she hears the rumors about her boss, she can’t help but feel a little bit unnerved. Dubbed “Ice Queen” by her subordinates, Carol Aird is not someone you want to make an enemy out of. Therese thinks she’s got it handled, but Carol Aird turns out to be more trouble than she expected.
After a month of working for her, Carol Aird has managed to get under her skin like no other. Whether it be her arrogance or frigid nature, she somehow always manages to get under Therese’s skin. But when a chance encounter leaves them in the same same bed together, Therese can’t help but think there is something more to the ice queen than meets the eye.
