What I liked about this book was Elle, the gritty heroine. She a girl from a council housing project in London who is embarking on her corporate law career. She not the lest bit pretentious. She understands that she has gotten where she is by her brains and very hard work. She's not angling to climb the class ladder only the corporate ladder.Despite that she manages to attract the attention of two billionaires who both want to date her. Oscar, a nobleman and bank president manages to finally date her first. Ivan a self made Russian billionaire does everything he can to steal her away. He brings all his business to her firm which brings Elle a very premature promotion and salary increase.The race is on as to who will win Elle. Both men have issues in how they behave.The book is told with elaborate detail but rather than being annoying it sets a pace that makes you feel like you are really living Elle's life.
