Publisher's Summary
A witty and revealing roman a clef about a woman who finally gets her dream job in book publishing only to realize she's working for the industry tyrant, in trade for the first time.
In a New York minute, Claire Truman lands both a plum position at a top publishing house and the man she's wanted for 10 years...then reality intervenes. Her new boss is Vivian Grant, a notoriously ruthless tyrant known for her tirades, traumatized assistants, and tabloid-inspired best sellers. Soon Claire's job is stealing more and more of her time and her relationship with her fiance begins to feel the strain. It doesn't help that she's working late nights with a brilliant - and handsome - first-time author.
As Vivian's outrageous demands continue to escalate, Claire wonders if she likes where the fast track is taking her - and worries about what she might turn into...
Critic Reviews
"Clark...nails the dark side of the vulgar, spiteful boss archetype....[T]hose in the Page Six and Lloyd Grove set will appreciate this devilish read." (Publishers Weekly)
"Vivian's vitriolic tantrums are laugh-out-loud funny." (Booklist)
