It was a situation that really required a lot of opening up and spending time together, in order to really get it right, and that made their interpersonal development wonderfully believable. Also, the way Lina and Max were forced to work together from the start because it would benefit them both really lent a lot of reality and gravity to the forced proximity/workplace romance tropes this novel used. Maybe it’s common, but not as much in my field(s), so it was fun to read about.

First, it was such a cool way to handle a job interview for such a hands-on and creative position. So yea, working together on this project is going to be tough, but succeeding will both help Lina find the stability/upward mobility she wants in her career and give Max the chance to finally get out from under her brother’s shadow.

The same younger brother who had a hand in her ex-fiancée’s decision to walk away from their wedding. However, throwing a giant wrench into her career and life plans, the marketing specialist she’s paired with to create her pitch is none other than her ex-fiancée’s younger brother, Max.

When she is invited to apply for a position with a hotel group as their wedding coordinator, the new opportunity is exactly what she wants. But she’s tucked all her emotions about it away and has forged an incredibly successful career and an outwardly unflappable demeanor. Lina, a wedding planner, was left at the alter three years ago.
