Debut author Sally Thorne bursts on the scene with a
hilarious and sexy workplace comedy all about that thin,
fine line between hate and love. Nemesis
(n.) 1) An opponent or rival whom a person cannot best or
overcome.
2) A person’s
undoing
3) Joshua
Templeman Lucy Hutton and Joshua Templeman hate
each other. Not dislike. Not begrudgingly tolerate. Hate.
And they have no problem displaying their feelings through a
series of ritualistic passive aggressive maneuvers as they
sit across from each other, executive assistants to co-CEOs
of a publishing company. Lucy can’t understand Joshua’s
joyless, uptight, meticulous approach to his job. Joshua is
clearly baffled by Lucy’s overly bright clothes, quirkiness,
and Pollyanna attitude. Now up for the same promotion,
their battle of wills has come to a head and Lucy refuses to
back down when their latest game could cost her her dream
job…But the tension between Lucy and Joshua has also reached
its boiling point, and Lucy is discovering that maybe she
doesn’t hate Joshua. And maybe, he doesn’t hate her either.
Or maybe this is just another game.
