Maybe Later by Claudia Burgoa




Title: Maybe Later
Author: Claudia Burgoa
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: March 7, 2019



Blurb

My personal assistant—a.k.a. half my brain—has abandoned me to have a baby. Alright, alright, I’m not a total jerk, but the temporary virtual assistant Carla left in her place is driving me crazy.

I’ve repeatedly refused to fill out Amy Walker’s way-too-friendly questionnaire. But somehow, she ninjas me into giving up details about my private life—all while suffering her oh-so-subtle jabs at my likes, dislikes, even my system for running my business.

I don’t care what she heard, I am not a problem child. I just know what’s tried and true.

At first, her feel-good P.S. quotes sounded more like B.S. Yet our emails and texts gradually take on a new dimension, and I find myself thinking of her as something I haven’t cultivated in a long time. A friend.

Maybe she’s right. It’s time I get a life. Starting with stepping out from behind the screen and putting my feelings on the line. I’ll never know unless I try.

Note: Contains a grumpy, workaholic tech CEO with a guarded heart, and a virtual assistant whose skills border on diabolical. Also, two cats named Ramen and Sushi.





Review
Rating: ☆☆☆☆

A 'You've Got Mail' feel to it.

Billionaire Jackson is not known for his friendliness or tact in dealing with those around him so when his personal assistant goes on maternity leave, a virtual replacement is hired in the form of Amy.  Amy is efficient to the nth degree albeit slightly sassy but deals with his moods in an excellent way.  When Jackson meets the enigmatic Emmaline in a bookstore, there is an instant attraction but a reluctance from her to get involved in a relationship.  Little does he realise that the woman he has been slowly falling for via email and instant messaging and Emmaline have more in common than he realises. 

This book is mostly delivered through instant messages, text messages and emails which make it a challenge for the author but it is one that meets head-on.  The characters were all interesting and fun to read.  The interactions between them brought a smile as Amy put Jackson in his place time and time again, and Jackson brings Amy out of her shell and willing to take a chance in the real world.

Excerpt

February 21st   

Mrs. Jones,

Thank you for your inquiry about our services and for filling out our initial application. It’ll be a pleasure to help you find just the right virtual assistant for your need. Please, let me make sure we got some details right. On the application, you describe your current boss as impatient, aggressive, micromanaging, and somehow a social piranha.
Did I misread it? Is there a possibility that this was a typo?
If you could please correct or expand on your description, I’ll appreciate it. Mrs. Darlington explained our mission correctly. We always find the most fitting assistant for your company. Even for social piranhas. We have the right person for that. Our personnel is highly trained and holds at least a bachelor degree.

Best Regards,
E. Lancaster, CEO
