"ASAP Amazon Reviews
“I have always admired strong woman as my role models. In ASAP the author's main character Suzanne exudes strength, tenacity and intelligence while running a multibillion dollar company that she created from nothing while simultaneously embracing her role as a loving wife and mother .When her nucleus is put in jeopardy she shows exactly how strong she truly is. As a reader you feel her fear, happiness and cheer her bravery .I recommend this novel to anyone who enjoys a suspenseful ride on a roller coaster fueled by a woman's passion and determination to turn the tables that she has been wrongfully dealt.” Paula K.
“After reading CEO I was anxious to read the second book by this author and ASAP fulfilled my expectations I loved her characters, especially the heroine Suzanne Moss--the brilliant, strong co-founder of a multi-million dollar technology firm--trying to protect her company from corporate thieves and a double-dealing husband. The author draws out her characters beautifully to make ASAP a fast-paced very enjoyable read. I regretted finishing it!” Joy Smith
“This novel reminded me a little of the Women's Murder Club Series, except there was no murder...LOL The reason was because there are three female friends who are extremely close and involved in each other's lives, so that when one has a problem, they all get involved.” Glenda..
“ASAP - As Soon As Possible is one of the most enjoyable, page turning mysteries involving a strong, brilliant woman struggling to ""have it all"" that I have ever read. It involves a woman, business founder, Suzanne Moss, with a competitive husband and two preteen children who is trying to save her multimillion dollar technological company, Secure Homes, from having its latest invention that can revolutionize the medical industry, from being stolen. Mysterious people emerge from the past with information she never knew anyone else was aware of. She and her devoted partner, Brad, work together traveling the world into dangerous territories trying to save the business. With the help of Brad, a mysterious stranger, Smitty, and Brad's network of cohorts plus the support of her devoted best friends who attempt to help her straighten out her personal life, Suzanne manages to overcome the hurdles preventing her from enjoying her career and her family. I very much identified with Suzanne who epitomizes the struggles of many career women today as did many of her friends who read the book. I would welcome more books from this author.” Elinor R.

asap is a book about a woman, and, I believe, intended for women. It contains a good story about a bad marriage and a blossoming company. The main character, Suzanne, has loyal friends and nice children. Her husband is a louse. Men, well, straight men, don't fare as well, unless they are subservient to the three dominant women. The most well-treated man is, naturally, gay, and has all of those characteristics some gay men have that make women just adore them. As a gay man myself, I lack those qualities, or so it seems. But I can enjoy a story about women, and I did. asap turns into a pretty good one.
Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC.
