DEBUT Single mom Juliana has returned to work in human resources for the first time since her husband’s sudden and untimely death. When she overhears her new colleague, attractive architect Ben, putting her down on her first day of work, it ignites a feud that still rages two years later, even though Juliana is starting to notice an attraction between her and Ben that neither of them is willing to admit. When they’re forced to work together on a new project that could lead to a major promotion for her, their workplace arguments begin to turn into something more, especially once Juliana learns that Ben is a single parent as well and their lives begin to intersect outside of work. However, just when they finally admit their long-simmering feelings for each other, someone from Ben’s past threatens to take away Juliana’s newfound happiness.
VERDICT Buchanan’s debut hits all of the right notes, leading up to a sweet and satisfying ending for Ben and Juliana. This twist on the enemies-to-lovers trope that also sensitively explores dating while grieving is perfect for fans of workplace romances.
