We all don certain masks to protect ourselves, but removing them for the right person isn’t as easy as it sounds.

Typically, spending several days out of the office networking with other publishing professionals would be a treasured break from the constant deadlines and staring at computer screens until my eyes crossed. But when I’m being forced to attend a conference with the man everyone in the office calls D!ickhead, I’m less than enthusiastic.
Discovering he wasn’t what he seemed to be caused a heated lapse in judgement that made me realize he might be what I’d been looking for all along.

Living up to my office nickname was a piece of cake, most of the time. Only when I was serendipitously sent on a road trip with the co-worker I knew I shouldn’t fantasize about, I let the facade slip. Attraction was a tricky thing, though, and when we’re asked to collaborate on a project, the lines blurred and I couldn’t help but fall for her.

Convincing her to fall for me might be my biggest challenge yet, but when she revealed her deepest desire, I saw an opening I didn’t hesitate to take. Neither of us were prepared for the challenges seeing that dream to fruition would present. But they wouldn’t call it a redemption arc if it was easy.
