Bond Girl, by Erin Duffy






3 stars
I’ve read a ton of books like this one, but I still love them.  Alex Garrett is a young girl that dreams of working on Wall Street after visiting her Dad’s work as an investment banker.  She is smart, attractive and a go-getter! 
Alex faces the traditional problems women go through moving from college to the work world.  She is determined to make her mark in a male-driven profession.  The men she deals with are funny and helpful while the woman that Alex thinks will help her is the only person that is not willing to help Alex.
Everything Alex faces from spending a thousand dollars on a cheese wheel to walking in on a slumber party in the conference room will make you laugh and cheer her on.  You watch Alex grow as is a very capable worker (except when reading her horoscope) but ignores the signs when it comes to romance.  I don’t know a woman that hasn’t done this.  In the end, Alex figures out what is important to her and what she is willing to do to achieve her dream.
