synopsis
Talon Mitchell had gotten a job right out of college, had her own coffee mug at the office that no one else could use, and planned to keep her job as sales manager for a long time because she had practically grown up working for this company. She was content and not looking for anything when a new sales director showed up and changed everything.
Emerson Bagley just got a new job, and while she felt ready for the next step, when she sees someone she recognizes from a holiday party working on the same team, she can’t believe her luck, both good and bad. Good, because Talon Mitchell was very attractive, very smart, and seemingly, very interested in Emerson, too. Bad, because she couldn’t date someone who worked for her, especially in her brand-new job.
Feeling the simmering heat begin to boil over, the two women decide to at least take one step and deal with the rest later. When neither of them had been prepared to seek out love, they managed to find it where they least expected it.
rant
- definitely liked this one better than the last
- There’s so much repetition from the last book in this so I did skim through a lot of the beginning ngl
- Talon and Emerson really just match each other’s freaks perfectly and I loved that ‐ Talon has the most interesting personality out of the friends so far and Emerson matched her intensity where ig no one else was able to
- Emerson looking just like Weston threw me off but ig Talon just has a type lol
- I will say tho this book isn’t that memorable 😬 I accidentally deleted my og notes and I can’t remember what they said or what happened in like the second half of this lol ‐ I do remember the feeling of liking it tho 😭 and that’s what really matters
- Would read again
noted & quoted
- Office scene 😼
I was wondering how a block party is a holiday but I’m realizing now that based on the cover it’s probably saint Patrick’s day lol
