In office hours

Description

A masterclass in office love ... Stella Bradberry and Bella Chambers work for Atlantic Energy, a global oil company in London. Bella is a pretty single mother who dropped out of college and is doomed to work as an invisible assistant to a series of men of half her intelligence. Stella is twenty years older, about to get a seat on the board, and is the original no-glass-ceiling, high-achieving, multi-tasking mother of two. Everyone admires her; she's so straightforward and sensible. So what possesses both women to embark on pole-axing, heart-wrenching affairs with men they wouldn't have looked twice at outside the office?

Description

"This novel features Bella, an invisible assistant to a series of men half her age; and Stella, who is about to get a seat on the board. So what possesses these women to embark on pole-axing, heart-wrenching affairs with men they wouldn't have looked at twice outside the office? Smart, funny, and agonizing, this novel holds up a mirror to modern corporate life - the lies and sabotage, the strutting lunacy of CEO's, men's choice of sandwiches, women's choice of underwear, taking credit for others' ideas, the crashing of egos ... and the dangerous conduct of work colleagues who break all the rules."--Inside cover.
