Tess Drake
review 1: Finally a strong female character. I'm sure there are people on here who will say Tess' crass language and sense of humor are far from endearing. Another reviewer actually called her "too masculine." First of all, women are allowed to like sex and be good at their jobs without being called masculine. If this was a male character, he would be applauded. Great read, especially for young women who are looking for a female character that has heart but also drive. Definitely recommend (for those who are not faint-hearted)
review 2: My copy of this book has been stored on my shelf for a long time, left unopened. It was very pretty much neglected. I got the copy (a hardcover) on sale. The cover was an eye-catcher right then my impulsiveness brought the book without k

When I ran out of books to read and at the same time I decided to take a break from my usual historical fiction genre, I picked it up discovering it had harbored dusts for its idleness. I gave it a chance to be read and appreciated.It was a story about a book agent named Tess Drake and the publishing world.Tess Drake - deal-maker, witty, a true friend, guarded but a fool when hormones callPublishing world - a place where one can rise and fall within a blink of an eyeThis book is quite erotic. In that case, it failed me because I am not a fan of erotica based novels. Neither do the crime-solving part. What saved it from my distaste was the happy ending. I am a sucker for heroines who struggled greatly but in the end receives a happy ending as a compliment. I guess the writing style is not for me. It is not the kind of book that I will brood over for days because there are no more pages left for me to read. However, it did saved me from the sadness that I bore from the last book that I've read.P.S. You can see a lot of people from the entertainment industry mentioned here. Tess Drake being acquainted with Sienna Miller. Sean Penn laughing at Tess Drake. Tom Cruise talking over the phone with Tess Drake for a movie rights. (...and I don't know why am I including this in my review.) less

Entertaining drivel narrated by a man's fantasy of an alpha woman.
