Pot-bound — Jo Edwards

Pot-bound is the sequel to Jo Edward's bestselling novel 'Work Wife Balance'.

Acquaint yourself with Perypils Insurance, primed to protect the things you value most in life … unless your locks are described incorrectly on your policy. Under the fraught leadership of Kate King, the team at Perypils blunder their way through hopeless sales targets and mounting complaints. Mini-Cruella does her utmost to undermine Kate's authority. The Drain wants to snuff out the light at the end of the tunnel. The Snake drips her venomous gossip while The Rock attempts to limit the damage. A hostile press only serves to fuel the company's increasingly desperate attempts to mislead its customers and regulators. Kate reminds her team that a customer screaming abuse and issuing death threats is simply pointing out an error; they are definitely not complaining.
Under intense pressure from her formidable boss and condemned to a one-incomed existence by her treacherous husband, Kate is forced to fight for the job she despises. Eager for someone to share her load, she dips a cautious toe back into the dating pool but stumbles into another swamp of pretence, exaggeration and downright lies. Terrified of sliding into a homeless, vodka-fuelled oblivion, Kate's options are rapidly running out. She must determine the depth to which she is prepared to plummet in order to protect her livelihood. Will Kate be capable of spreading of new roots amidst the harshness and turbulence of her life or will she forever be twisted into knots?
