Synopsis
From the very beginning, I suspected I was making a bargain with the devil. I accepted Bryce Gentry’s position as his personal assistant knowing there was more to the job than answering emails and taking meeting notes. I mean, so what if he likes to watch me do my office work without my shirt on? No big deal. All I care about is making ends meet and taking care of my son. But Gentry seems determined to make me a pawn in his personal vendettas and power plays.
And then there’s Gentry’s handsome former collaborator and current rival: Jackson Vale. Jackson makes me FEEL. He makes me feel alive. Feel sexy. Feel in control and out of control at the same time. He makes me want a future when I can barely manage the day to day.
For a girl like me, it’s dangerous to want. If there’s one thing I’ve learned in this life, it’s to never put my heart on the line.
The stakes of these games are getting too high, too fast. It was just supposed to be a job. But now I’m stuck between two men intent on destroying one another. Will I make it out of this with my heart, soul, and body intact, or will this CRUSH ME?
Warning: Contains triggers and dark themes which may be distressing to some readers.
Susan's Review:
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1889890048
I give Crush Me 5 stars for discussing life issues which are sensitive, that many people deal with on a daily basis, handling it well, and stimulating many of my emotions. Although not everything was resolved, it still leaves me hoping for a happy ending.
Stasia Black has written a masterpiece that introduces life issues that are not pleasant, not easily resolved, and definitely hurt the victims. Although the storyline is disturbing, it was well written.
Callie and Bryce meet when she interviews to be his personal assistant. She accepts the position and figures out quickly that she's made a deal with the devil. He’s going to crush her because she's not strong enough for his... What was it Jackson called it? Gentry’s games. Will she make it out with her heart, soul, and body intact?
Calliope "Callie" Cruise is a twenty-two year old mother of a two and a half year old. She wants a simple life. One where she just does her job in peace, gets paid well, and goes happily along her way. All she cares about is making ends meet, taking care of her son, and kicking her ex’s ass in the upcoming custody battle. When she accept the job at Gentry Tech, she did not bargain for what happens. The stakes are too high. Will she get crushed?
Bryce Gentry, good-looking, blond hair, aquiline nose, long face and squared jaw, like a model, is CEO of Gentry Information Technologies. He hires Callie for the position of his personal assistant. And let his games begin. Gentry seems to want to make her a pawn in his vendetta against Jackson. Who will win this game in the end?
Jackson Vale is Bryce's ex business partner and current rival. When he meets Callie through a business meeting, he becomes smitten. He makes her feel alive and sexy. He makes her want a better future even when she can't handle the day to day. Can he convince her to take a leap of faith?
Crush Me is an erotic romance novel about office politics, life issues which are unpleasant, and a triangle that is not a love triangle. There are many twists and turns that you don't see coming...it's awesome.
I loved this book and look forward to reading Please Me.
