The Hating Game meets Beach Read in Katy
Birchall's enemies-to-lovers romcom The Last Word,
about a young journalist who puts her career (and her heart)
on the line when her former work nemesis is hired in her
newsroom.
Harper Jenkins is at the top of her
game. A brilliant, determined journalist with a well-known
knack for getting tight-lipped Hollywood stars to open up to
her, Harper loves her job as Celebrity Editor at a
newspaper’s glossy weekend magazine and has the best
contacts in the business.
But when her awful boss
hires talented reporter Ryan to be the new Features Editor,
Harper is furious. Because the two have met before: a decade
ago, they were interns at the same publication, where they
fell into a whirlwind romance…until Ryan betrayed
Harper, and they never spoke again.
Thrown
together in a busy newsroom, their dynamic is a disaster
from the start. They can’t agree on anything and
bicker constantly—Ryan can’t bear how chaotic
and messy Harper is; Harper finds Ryan’s condescending
nature infuriating. They clash over who’s writing what
article, and fight over who’s going to which event.
Yet as they’re forced to spend more and more
time together, Harper realizes she may have misjudged Ryan
and can’t help but feel a spark growing between them.
Long buried feelings start to resurface and, when
they’re thrown together on a romantic press trip
abroad, their chemistry comes to a head.
But all
is fair in love and magazines, and with the news that
layoffs across the department are imminent, Harper is left
to wonder: who will get the last word?
