by Chip Pons – If you want an uplifting, feel-good romance novel, look no further! 

Will Cowen landed his dream job at a premiere publishing house, working with his best friend and roommate. Everything was going great…until he met Graham Austin, heir to the publishing kingdom. Will is constantly inadvertently making himself look foolish in front of Graham but is determined to impress the talented (and devastatingly handsome) executive. When Will comes across an incredible manuscript, he knows it is his opportunity to make a great impression. Everything is going great until the manuscript’s author ghosts Will. Devastated, Will finds support in an unexpected colleague – Graham. As they unpack the author’s mysterious background and the book’s origins, Will and Graham have an undeniable attraction that grows into something extremely meaningful.

This is one of those books where the adults behave like…adults. They talk about their feelings, respect each other, have adult conversations, and recognize when something special is happening (and disclose their relationship to HR). I adored Will and Graham. On the surface, they are so different, but underneath, they are deeply caring and supportive people. The book also addresses a lot about how how you were raised affects how you navigate life and relationships. As their relationship blossoms, it’s a testament to the power of love and understanding. Overall, it was an absolute charmer.
