Hot Desk (CD) (ISBN-13: 9781668122273)

The Hating Game meets Writers and Lovers in this rollicking, sparkling and hilarious romantic comedy that is a love letter to New York.Set in the post-pandemic publishing industry, two rival editors are forced to share a "hot desk" on alternating days of the week, much to each other's chagrin. Not knowing who the other is, they begin to leave passive aggressive Post-it notes on their shared (and reviled) cactus. But when revered literary legend Edward David Adams (nicknamed "The Lion") dies, leaving his estate up for grabs, their banter escalates as both work feverishly to land this career-making opportunity. Their fierce rivalry ultimately forces them to make decisions about what role they want to play in The Lion's legacy, as well as in each other's lives. Set in the nostalgic and electric vibrancy of 1980's Manhattan and the dive bars, conference rooms, and ritzy townhouses of contemporary New York, Hot Desk is a funny, sexy, unexpectedly moving novel that infuses the workplace romance with important questions about appropriation, sexism, and who has the right to tell their story.
