ROMANCING THE WORKPLACE SERIES

The Plus-One Clause (novella)

A rivals-to-lovers, forced-proximity, fake-dating romance where the lines blur fast

From the back cover:

No feelings. No complications. No chance.

Emma Carter has spent years perfecting the art of keeping things strictly professional—especially when it comes to Ben Harrington, her insufferably brilliant, maddeningly attractive workplace rival. But when he begs her to be his fake date for the firm's annual gala, she sees an opportunity she can't resist: one night of playing nice in exchange for some long-overdue respect in the office.

The plan is simple. The rules are clear. But after one too many lingering glances and a dance that feels a little too real, Emma starts to wonder if their rivalry has always been something else entirely.

Then Ben makes a proposal of his own. No emotions. No expectations. Just a stress-free, fun, totally no-strings-attached arrangement.

Emma knows better. She really does.

But saying yes? Might just be the best bad decision she's ever made.
