From Clare Gilmore comes a witty, modern workplace rom-com filled with ambition, rivalry, and undeniable chemistry.

Casey Maitland has always trusted numbers over emotions. Focused on her career in Manhattan’s fast-paced publishing world, she’s determined to land a promotion that could finally give her life a little more sparkle.

But then Alex Harrison gets the job instead.

Charming, privileged, and seemingly handed everything on a silver platter, Alex is instantly everything Casey resents. When they’re forced to work together, tensions run high—and so does the attraction neither of them wants to admit.

As deadlines loom and secrets about the company begin to surface, their rivalry slowly shifts into something more complicated. Because beneath first impressions, both of them are chasing something deeper—and might just find it in each other.

Smart, funny, and full of heart, this story proves that sometimes the biggest risks—both in love and life—are the ones worth taking.
