Zelda is having a bad day. It had been a series of very bad days, actually. She has just moved to Paris, the world capital of croque-monsieur, to escape everything that has gone wrong with her life lately, the disaster that is her marriage and the loss of a parent just to name a few. As the badass HR manager of a top-tier consulting firm, she is tasked with the mission to clean up the Parisian office, i.e. fire everyone.
What Zelda really doesn't need, on top of being insomniac and enduring boring Tinder dates, is handling Jake, a twenty-two-year-old new intern whose mind is set on showing up late every day and not getting any work done.
He thinks she's an obnoxious robot, she thinks he's an insolent pain in her neck, they both keep secrets no one in the office can know about... Clearly, they did not get off on the right foot.
How To Let Go is a witty, warm and thoroughly fun take on how one can discover love where it's the least expected.

What happens when we put together two workaholics with their hearts closed to love? Eleanor, a clumsy twenty-two-year-old, had everything in her life planned out and was focused only on her career and everything was going smoothly until she tried to walk into the same elevator as Sebastian Crain. After that, she thought she would not meet him face to face again, until she started working at his company and he made her an outrageous request. At twenty-six, Sebastian had just replaced his father as CEO of Crain enterprises. Not only was his professional life in total chaos, but the media had also depicted him as having an extremely active romantic life when, in fact, it was inexistent. But everything changed when he received his sister's wedding invitation and was told that he needed to attend with a date. To him, Eleanor looked perfect for the part. They only had to pretend to be a couple and attend a wedding. But what will happen once they realize that what they have is a lot more than a fake relationship? P.S: English is not my first language, so if you read something of mine, please be kind in the comments and constructive criticism is really appreciated.
