Review: Cloud Ten – Ferne Hill

by
Cloud Ten - Fearne Hill

Genre: Contemporary LGBTQ+ Category: Bi, Gay Reviewer: Liz RH Get It On Amazon About The Book Frankie Carter lives and breathes PA work. Becoming indispensable to a top exec is all he’s ever wanted, even if he is repeatedly overlooked in favour of other less well-qualified applicants. The problem? 94% of executive PAs are women. But resourcefulness comes with the territory. As does a pinstriped skirt, killer heels, and enough chutzpah to blag the interviews… conveniently passing as a woman instead of a gay man. Egged on by his friends, Frankie lands himself his dream job working for Lysander St. Cloud, a senior exec on the board of the family … Read more
