Hope is excited to begin her internship at a major publishing house in New York City. Little did she know she would gain a lot more than work experience …
Hope has always wanted to work in the book industry, and now she has her chance. However, leaving her hometown in rural Michigan for South Orange, New Jersey, is daunting. On the bright side, Hope will be reunited with Kyla, her best friend from college.
Beau has worked hard to obtain his position as an assistant manager at a major publishing house. The commute from his home in South Orange to New York City is tedious, but he loves his job. Beau’s life is full, and despite his sister’s best attempts at matchmaking, he isn’t interested in dating.
Hope’s first meeting with her new boss is disastrous and involves ruining his pristine shirt. She’s determined to make it up to him, even though Beau ignores her efforts. The best she can do is keep her head down, work hard, and try to regain his favor.
Despite their rough start, Beau discovers that his new intern is not only beautiful, but bright, ambitious, and brave. He admires Hope for moving away from home to forge a new life, alone. However, as her boss, he stifles his attraction to her. When an opportunity arises to show her around New York City, he takes it, setting off a chain of events he never would have imagined.
As their attraction grows, so does Hope’s fear. If their clandestine relationship is discovered, their jobs could be at risk. Not only that, but what will happen when her internship ends? Will Hope return to Michigan, never to see Beau again? Or will she take a risk and follow her heart?
