Flying First by Lucy Bexley
3.0
2.5 stars - short story with promise
It has the bones to be an interesting story but for me it doesn’t quite work as-is. I don’t really have a good idea of the relationship between the ice queen and her asst beyond the broad strokes of the trope. Since I have no emotional investment in their relationship I don’t really care what happens. Yes, I know it’s a short story but still.
The asst seems to flip flop between lust and anger. I found it annoying. And ye old miscommunication chestnut rears it’s grizzled head.
I think there is a good story in here, it just needs work.
