Description
Layla Wright fit in her role as admin at West Oak Publishing about as well as she would at a five star restaurant in her ‘I love DILFS T-shirt’. When she applied to the job she thought she would be learning the ins and outs of the industry to eventually write and publish her own novel. But after years of staying in this same position, she’s unsure of how to break out of her routine and chase her dreams.
Luke Wells knows the words “friend zone” all too well. Staying in a dead-end position at a company he doesn’t care for only has one bonus: Layla Wright. He may hate his job just as much as she does, but she’s the one thing he’s not willing to lose. When Luke finds out he’s up for a promotion, he has to decide how far he’s willing to go to stay close to Layla. With his own dreams of running a bar on the line, is Layla really worth sticking around for—especially when she’s never indicated there will be anything more between them than friendship?
A seaside work conference is just what they need to shake things up and break them out of this tight bubble they’ve been living in for so long. Will they finally be brave enough to go for what they want or will they return home with everything between them unchanged? Boundaries get crossed, lines get blurred, and donuts get eaten.
Advance Praise
"Layla and Luke are the Jim and Pam of their office! These two have the most ridiculous and amazing first impression/meeting and it is all uphill from there. Their banter and friendship, their pranks and sense of humor had me cackling. This is a slow burn, friends to lovers, workplace romance that will have you smiling ear to ear as you read it." - Goodreads reviewer

Don’t mind me… I’m just screaming from the rooftops about how much I LOVED this book.
Luke and Layla melted my heart a million times over. The constant back and forth, tip-toeing around each other harboring intense love for the other but to afraid to tell them in fear of losing their friendship. Luke paying attention the the small details, like keeping Layla’s favorite snacks in his desk drawer. Layla’s fierce determination that Luke would be her best friend regardless of what she heard him tell Nathan that first day.
This book made my heart swell 3 sizes. I felt so much love and grew attached to so many characters… except for Janise. Boo Janise. But also boo Chad and EXTRA boo Katie. 😂 Luke’s family with all their love and support for both Luke and Layla together and separately made me want to hug them all. Mama B and he precious coconut cake. Liam’s drive to support Luke’s dreams. Calla and Marigold’s friendship with Layla. Crew just being Crew. Adam showing up when it mattered. Ugh, just perfection. Absolute perfection.
I laughed. I cried… happy tears of course. I grinned from ear to ear. I cheered Layla on when she told Janise two incredible words. I screamed “Hallelujah!” at the top of my lungs when Luke finally JUMPED.
Julianna, what a CHEF’S KISS of a novel. Hilarious. Beautiful. Wonderful. Magical. Perfect. You are a rockstar for this one.
Please, please read this novel. Especially if you’re a fan of:
-Friends to Lovers (especially friends that are so cute it hurts)
-Nerds
-The Office (Major Jim & Pam vibes)
-Laughing
-loudly saying “Aww” every 5 minutes
-Rom-Com
-being happy
