Would you call your friend to your workplace? Nora Hughes is sure she wouldn’t subject even a sworn enemy to such torment. Once, the position of assistant editor at a publishing house seemed like a gift of fate. But after five years at Parsons Press, Nora has met only demanding authors, indifferent bosses, and dull business literature. Her life goes downhill completely when Nora’s pay is cut—already small, it becomes even smaller. Unable to pay rent and having lost the most valuable thing—her love of books—Nora decides to take a side job at a competing publishing house and lure successful writers away. But when Andrew Santos, a charming bestseller author from Parsons Press, ends up at the center of everything, Nora has to decide who she’ll remain loyal to: her dream job, Andrew, who is always optimistic—or herself and her own future.
