The Billionaire’s Funding by Lark Anderson

The story is a quirky rom-com set around a pharmaceutical company owned by Cassius.  Sadie is a research scientist for the company that wants to pursue a breakthrough drug but the company Board doesn’t approve her funding and Cassius decides to fund it on his own.

The story involves the push and pull between the boss/employee and not crossing professional lines.  The extensive friend group of Cassius’ gets involved in the investment and as popularity increases, so does the visibility and gossip.  Throw in the flaky mom and skeezy ex-boyfriend and you have a story.

The story was okay - the basic premise a little unbelievable. It was told in the dual POV.  To me, there was a little too much “self talk”.  I wasn’t too fond of the chapter titles.
