Lydia McKenzie is not a runner. Not even close. But in her quest to be taken seriously at work – and catch the eye of her office crush – she signs up for the New York City Marathon as part of her architectural firm’s outreach program. Now she just needs to avoid making a fool of herself.
Personal trainer Luke Townsend is definitely a runner, and he’s exactly what Lydia needs to get in shape. But nothing can prepare them for when their training time intensifies from hitting the pavement to hitting the sheets.
Suddenly, everything Lydia thought she wanted feels less clear. And when her project proposal suddenly hangs in the balance, and her office crush offers some awfully tempting one-on-one help, she’ll have to decide which direction her heart wants to run…
Tropes:
❤️ Workplace romance
❤️ Sports romance
❤️ Love triangle
About the author
Elizabeth Hrib was born and raised in London, Ontario. She studied nursing in university but fell in love with storytelling and dreaming up happily-ever-afters, so she decided to make it her day job. When she’s not writing, she can be found at the piano, swooning over her favorite books on Instagram or buying too many houseplants.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
This cute contemporary from Hrib (Flirting with Disaster) finds architect Lydia McKenzie hoping to impress her workplace crush Jack by agreeing to join the team he's put together to run the New York City Marathon for charity. What Lydia doesn't expect is to fall in love with her trainer, Luke Townsend. Despite first impressions, Luke's much more than a pretty boy gym rat. Growing up underprivileged has led him to volunteer for the Manhattan Youth Center, which helped him in his childhood. Lydia's firm is now angling for the contract to renovate the center—and Luke's determined to make her see how important the crumbling facility is to the local kids. His passion and kindness awaken strong feelings in Lydia even as she tries to keep things strictly professional between them and refocus on Jack. When Jack attempts to take credit for her designs, however, she might finally realize what's been right in front of her all along. Luke's heart of gold makes him an endearing hero, and readers will have no trouble rooting for Lydia to move on from Jack. Hrib successfully tugs at the heartstrings.
