출판사 설명
One woman’s trash is another woman’s treasure.
A woman with high standards. A rival coworker. And the promotion that stands between them . . .
Coder Marina Spicer has no time to waste when it comes to love, hence her long list of dealbreakers. Frustrated by the online dating world, she created Dealbreakers, an anonymous app where women review how men stack up to their internet profiles. Her high standards have served her well at work, so why not in love?
Enter Lucas Kennedy. A charming Irish content writer, he’s the only one standing between Marina and her long-deserved promotion. Much to Marina’s chagrin, the two are paired on a project to test out date ideas, ultimately determining which of them will run the department. Taking a peek at Dealbreakers hoping to learn some dirt about her rival, she finds he’s the worst-rated man on the entire app.
As Lucas and Marina argue their way through mixing cocktails, salsa dancing, and throwing axes, Marina finds herself having more fun than she’s had in years. So when temptation becomes too strong to resist, Marina allows herself to break some of her own rules. After all, if the Dealbreakers say he’s Mr. Wrong, he can’t possibly be Mr. Right . . . can he?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A woman looking for the perfect man reevaluates her criteria in this cute contemporary from Forsythe (The Fixer Upper). London tech developer Marina Spicer created Dealbreakers, an app overlay that shows reviews of men on dating apps written by women they've gone out with in the past. She hopes it will be a time-saver in her own search for a man who doesn't have tattoos or smoke and is ready for commitment. Enter Lucas Kennedy, her coworker at Let's Go, a London start-up app aiming to connect users through exciting outings. The pair are tasked with testing out date ideas—including ax throwing, cocktail making, and an escape room—and as their competitive spirits run rampant, a mutual attraction develops. Unfortunately, Marina can't get past the comments on Dealbreakers about Lucas's reputation as a "Lothario." Forsythe's witty and deeply introspective story makes a case for taking a chance on messy, complicated love. Readers will be eager for Marina to open up to her perfectly imperfect soulmate.
