About Not on the Same Page:

They agreed on no strings. But their hearts keep landing on the same page.

 

A year ago, literary agent Trina McBryde and editor Casey Endersen ended their no-strings arrangement. It was perfect for two people who didn’t want a relationship. But what started as a way to blow off steam and have a little fun almost put their careers at stake, along with their feelings for each other.

When an important publishing conference brings them together again, the desire they tried to deny is back, and stronger than ever. But the real challenge comes afterward—Casey needs Trina to sign a promising new writer, which means that after a year of avoiding each other, they’ll be forced to work together again. Late-night calls, whispered strategy sessions, and stolen glances make every professional interaction dangerously personal.

Every secret meeting carries the risk of exposure. If anyone finds out, they could lose more than just their jobs—they could lose their reputations.

But Casey has already fallen…again. And Trina is running out of ways to resist.

As professional boundaries blur, they’ll have to decide if being on the same page means following the rules—or finally writing their own.

 

This is an interconnected standalone to Not a Strong Enough Word. You do not have to read the first one to enjoy this title.
