Previously published as Billionaire's assistant: A Novel About Love, Burnout, and Learning to Choose Yourself by Jared Adams
Jared is the indispensable assistant to Edward, a ruthless billionaire who demands presence and perfection at any hour, in any time zone. Jared thrives in the chaos, solving crises before dawn, smoothing egos, and ghosting through life with a smile. But beneath the polished surface, he's unraveling.
Between Grindr hookups that leave him emptier than before, breakdowns in airport lounges, and a growing numbness to his own reflection, Jared's carefully constructed world collapses: his work causes stress waves he can't fight anymore affecting his sexual and romantic life, sleep and relationship with his friends and family.
Billionaire's Assistant is a raw, darkly funny, and deeply intimate romantic gay novel about the cost of ambition, the hunger for validation, and the quiet courage of letting see your own flaws and thrive.
