About this ebook
What if your new colleague is the one person who leaves you speechless?
Harper Jenkins has a way with words. As Celebrity Editor at a glossy magazine, she knows exactly how to get tight-lipped Hollywood stars talking, landing her exclusive stories and a great reputation.
There's only one person who leaves her speechless - her arrogant colleague Ryan, who has been hired as the new Features Editor. Harper remembers Ryan from a decade ago, when they both interned together. Back then she had believed he was someone she could trust - but he betrayed her completely and they've never spoken since.
Thrown together again in a busy newsroom, Harper and Ryan clash on everything - he can't bear how chaotic and messy she is while she declares him uptight and infuriating. But as the tension between them builds, who will get to have the last word?

This enemies-to-love, second-chance, opposites-attract, romance started off well, gradually revealing the history between Ryan and Harper but for me it gradually went off the boil. I think it was that Ryan didn't really feel like a rounded character, more just a foil to contrast with Harper. Also, it felt a bit lazy to have such a mirroring of events from the past with the present (and something I've read before). I received an ARC from the publisher via NetGalley in return for an honest review.
