About this ebook

'The kind of Hollywood ending that will make you believe in soul mates' Lyssa Kay Adams, author of The Bromance Book Club

A show runner and her assistant give the world something to talk about when they accidentally fuel a ridiculous rumour.

Hollywood powerhouse Jo is photographed making her assistant Emma laugh on the red carpet, and just like that, the tabloids declare them a couple. The so-called scandal couldn't come at a worse time - threatening Emma's promotion and Jo's new movie.

As the gossip spreads, it starts to affect all areas of their lives. Paparazzi are following them outside the office, coworkers are treating them differently, and a 'source' is feeding information to the media. But their only comment is 'no comment'.

With the launch of Jo's film project fast approaching, the two women begin to spend even more time together, getting along famously. Emma seems to have a sixth sense for knowing what Jo needs. And Jo, known for being aloof and outwardly cold, opens up to Emma in a way neither of them expects. They begin to realise the rumour might not be so off base after all . . . but is acting on the spark between them worth fanning the gossip flames?

Everyone's talking about Meryl Wilsner. . .

'A fresh and fun romance . . . Meryl Wilsner is a great new voice whose perspective is both extremely welcome and desperately needed' Jen Deluca, author of Well Met

'An extremely fun, supremely readable slow-burn romance that had me yelling, JUST KISS ALREADY!' . . . Emma and Jo's love story is both irresistible and a total breath of fresh air' Kerry Winfrey, author of Waiting for Tom Hanks

An absolutely wonderful reading experience and the reason I will definitely be picking up more of Meryl's books in the future. Emma and Jo feel alive and the build-up was perfectly paced. I'm almost sad that I can't spend more time with them.
