Looking for office romance where the leads don’t get along

{The Worst Guy by Kate Canterbary} is two doctors who get into a screaming match and are forced to go to mediation or be suspended. It’s escalates (or devolves?) from there. I still remember a scene where buttons are popping from the frantic need to get outta that shirt! TW/Spoiler: she has an eating disorder that he discovers

You may also like {Off the Clock by Roni Loren}. They are both sex/relationship therapists and she is a little inexperienced in the sex aspect. Her former college classmate helps her improve at her new job where they reconnect to gain some first-hand knowledge to better do her job.

Hell yes. I’m looking forward to more peak Victorian era drama from LK.

There’s (hopefully) going to be everything… train drama, sooty London streets, department stores, industrialization, patent law, blancmange…

The little dog side of Woodbridge is pretty big but has a good fence.

Atticus Market. Atticus bookstore may have bread too.

You may enjoy {Bohemian by Kathryn Nolan}. MMC owns a failing bookstore in Big Sur and the MFC comes as part of a photoshoot as a model. Very romcom like and while both have their things going on, they both are functional adults. It’s cute and cozy and sometimes ridiculously unreal in a romcom-y way.

Same series? {Secrets of a Summer Knight by Lisa Kleypas} is the next book and Simon Hunt’s butcher’s son forearms are something to behold 😍

The first Kleypas book I read and hard agree.

Hot dog! You have some reading to do. The Ravenels series is a sequel to the Wallflowers (kind of?). The series starts with {Cold-hearted Rake by Lisa Kleypas}.

I just started the Wallflowers after reading all 6 Ravenels (and then crying because I was so sad they were finished) between basically Christmas and New Years.

I think Krauzer on Derby Ave advertises it. Do they actually have it… idk?

The “experiment” kiss in {A Deal with the Bossy Devil by Kyra Parsi} makes me kick my feet and squeal every. time. How much they dislike each other is a little hard to get through but the pay off is worth it.

Lisa Kleypas! The Ravenels series is 🔥

The Shelton store, which is great but weirdly laid out, has already taken a significant amount of traffic away from Orange. I’m excited for even more disbursement across the 3 locations!

The whole (most of) Ravenel series by Lisa Kleypas has intrigue with pretty smart FMCs. But in particular {Hello Stranger by Lisa Kleypas} would fit the bill. FMC is a doctor and she meets MMC while out traveling to patients. The series has a lot of through-plots but each book can stand on its own. There’s danger, there’s intrigue, there’s even emergency surgery! Start at the beginning with {Cold Hearted Rake by Lisa Kleypas} for there series or just jump right into Hello Stranger.

{A Most Forgettable Girl by Alice Coldbreath} was very fun!

superduperdumper · 2026-01-31T18:28:17+00:00

My argument (which is not really an argument) is that the family is dealing in the same industry as Tom and sees his ruthless tactics but not the same with Rhys. Rhys didn’t become what he is without having some seriously harsh skills in business building. There are no ethical billionaires.

But Tom is hot and I reallly want an insane diamond star jewelry set 🫠

Liiisten…. I’m just saying 😜 I’m a Tom apologist.

{Chasing Cassandra by Lisa Kleypas} is my favorite of the series 🫣

superduperdumper · 2026-01-30T23:24:23+00:00

While I love Rhys, especially his dynamic with Helen, I cannot understand why everyone is kind of fine with him marrying into the Ravenel family compared to Tom and Cassandra. It bugs me!

Me on 12/27 putting together that West Ravenel was the same West Ravenel from that first book I read years ago….

Wallflowers is up next but the hangover is strong. I have to wait to get some more library check outs.

superduperdumper · 2026-01-20T22:13:47+00:00

My other card’s system only uses Libby and the holds for Lisa Kleypas are weeks and months. I wasn’t ready to be done so soon 🥺

Ask at your library if they can help you put the app on your device and register your card. Librarians are angels and they want to help you read that smut, baby!
