About this audiobook
Losing her posh advertising job, her boyfriend, and her apartment all in the same morning has left Corinna Leyendecker with a massive mess where her life should be. She tries to get things back on track, but with a mountain of red tape between her and unemployment assistance and a string of disastrous job interviews under her belt, it’s clear that following the rules is getting her nowhere. So she decides to start doing things her way…
With the help of a quirky friend—and some unconventional branding—Corinna launches her own business: an elite cleaning service for wealthy men. And business is booming…until the day she finds a dead homeless man in the house of a fussy new client. As usual, Corinna’s instinct is to clean up, but body disposal isn’t easy, especially when you’re juggling work, friendships, media attention, and a nasty flu. It’s going to take more than a little elbow grease to finish this dirty job and come out clean.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Have you ever read a book description and been intrigued but unsure? This was one of those books for me, but it was well worth the read.
We join our main character Corinna who has been fired from a job and finds out her boyfriend has been cheating on her. She decides that going into business for herself is the best option after many unsuccessful job interviews. Thus Dust Angels is born her butler service. One thing leads to another and Corinna is driving around with a dead body in her car.
I really liked this book way more than I thought I would. It was really fun and quirky. I felt like the characters could be real people not just in a book. We not only have Corinna, but her staff including Lisbeth a very spunky lady who leads the part of cleaning staff. You meet various clients that hire Dust Angels and get to see many different types of people. All while there is a dead body in her car and she doesn't know what to do about it! Finally we have a great romance twist at the end of the book that put the biggest grin on my face. I was beyond happy about it.
I honestly didn't dislike anything. A couple dry spots, but those were few and far between.
This book is worth the cash and a fun read. 4/5 stars! Go pick it up!
