Beschreibung des Verlags
Annie thinks she knows what’s best for everyone. But when her life goes sideways, the inner workings of her own heart become a total mystery—can she stumble her way to happily ever after?
“This is the tech-world romance I didn’t know I was craving. Crisply written, smart, and full of unique, quirky characters, this is a truly joyful and healing love story. I give it five big stars.”—Annabel Monaghan, New York Times bestselling author of Nora Goes Off Script
After getting let go from her job and learning her sister is engaged to the worst man alive, Annie needs a win. Filling the open role in her company's data strategy team is just what the doctor ordered. So what if she doesn't know how to write code? How hard can it be? Surely Connor—the team's overworked, aggravating, and distractingly hot interim head—will soon realize how capable Annie is.
Annie sets her sights on landing this new job, even if that means ignoring the chemistry building between her and her new boss, and she tries to (gently!) convince her sister to reconsider her engagement. But with sparks flying at work and at home, she begins to see how complicated taking matters into her own hands can be. Maybe, just maybe, Annie doesn't actually know everything.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
At the start of Wood's entertaining debut, protagonist Annie is laid off along with her whole team at Taskio, a Manhattan-based software company. Fortunately, her best friend works in HR and helps Annie fudge her qualifications to move over to a job in data strategy. Her uptight, overworked new boss, Connor Reid, is disdainful of her lack of coding experience, but Annie gets him to agree to keep her on as a strategist if she can convince employees to use a new dashboard. As chemistry ignites between Annie and Connor, she must decide whether loyalty to her new team outweighs seeking justice for her former coworkers. Meanwhile, in her personal life, Annie tries to convince her sister, Shannon, not to go through with marrying her fiance, Dan, whom Annie once caught cheating. As Annie slowly realizes she may not always know best, Wood does a skillful job of peeling back her characters' layers to reveal the genuine complexities of their lives and relationships. This appealing and often humorous outing will please fans of workplace romance.
