Synopsis
Equal parts witty and steamy, this debut rom-com brings a healthy dose of queerness and a whole lot of spirit to a Pride and Prejudice-inspired enemies-to-lovers romance.&“Brims with heart, spice, and humor.&”—Ashley Herring Blake, author of Delilah Green Doesn&’t Care&“The L Word, but better.&”—TJ Alexander, author of Chef&’s Kiss&“A juicy sapphic romp; sweet, sexy, and tender in all the right ways.&”—Gabrielle Korn, author of Everybody (Else) Is PerfectThe only thing worse than hating your boss? Being attracted to her.Liz Baker and her three roommates work at the Nether Fields, a queer magazine in New York that&’s on the verge of shutting down—until it&’s bought at the last minute by two wealthy lesbians. Liz knows she&’s lucky to still have a paycheck but it&’s hard to feel grateful with minority investor Daria Fitzgerald slashing budgets, cancelling bagel Fridays, and password protecting the color printer to prevent &“frivolous use.&” When Liz overhears Daria scoffing at her listicles, she knows that it&’s only a matter of time before her impulsive mouth gets herself fired.But as Liz and Daria wind up having to spend more and more time together, Liz starts to see a softer side to Daria—she&’s funny, thoughtful, and likes the way Liz&’s gender presentation varies between butch and femme. Despite the evidence that Liz can&’t trust her, it&’s hard to keep hating Daria—and even harder to resist the chemistry between them.This page-turning, sexy, and delightfully funny rom-com celebrates queer culture, chosen family, and falling in love against your better judgment.
