After witnessing the unexpected stardom Fifty shades of Grey enjoyed on launching, it becomes evident that Jane Austen's romances won't have such a high readership anymore. Abby Weeks, with The Assignment series, takes us into the world of call girls and millionaire sex predators as a budding reporter takes in the assignment of playing the role to land the article that will take her to fame. If any woman reading this book had had some prejudices and contempt regarding the real scenes behind a call girl's life, who thought selling sex was easy matter, I hope she will close this small introduction book thinking otherwise, cherishing the easy routine of her life. Even while praising the author for a bold story, I know I will not read the sequel, just because sex scenes and men degrading a woman are not for me. Yet I can already tell this book will be a psychological drama that will either break our heroine or make her into the strong woman she is yearning to become.
