For two years, 24 year old Alice Bennett has endured life as the executive assistant to Ethan Warren, the insufferably perfect 28 year old Vice President of Warren Enterprises. 

With his impossible deadlines and complete lack of empathy, Ethan has made every workday a challenge. The only thing keeping Alice in this less than ideal work environment is the marketing manager promotion she's been chasing since day one.

So when a make or break presentation for a high profile client looms, Alice sees her chance to finally prove her worth. She just never expected a business trip to France would be what changes everything.

The unexpected turn of events leads them to oversee a high stakes project together, shifting their professional dynamics and forcing them to confront their complicated relationship. As office politics and a dash of personal chemistry complicate matters, Alice begins to question whether the corporate ladder is worth the climb.

A slow burn chicklit office romance
