The idea of concentrating on a heavier book while the election results flow in a manner I wasn’t quite expecting definitely seemed daunting. So I turned to an author whose books have brought me lots of joy lately, Jax Calder.
Ash has been sharing an office with Dominic for 3-1/2 years, even though Dominic is a coding wizard and should have an executive office all to himself. But the two squabble, poke fun at, and make each other laugh, intentionally and unintentionally. Every day comes with some banter, some silly insult.
To nearly all of their colleagues, Dominic is a moody, grumpy genius whose work is necessary to their company’s success. But some people think Ash must have Stockholm Syndrome, because even when they annoy each other, Ash keeps coming back for more. Could what his friends and colleagues think be true? Is he obsessed with Dominic?
But it takes a video of a colleague breakdancing at their company’s midwinter holiday party for Ash to realize how he feels about Dominic. Is it possible that he feels the same way? And if so, will taking the next step jeopardize the good thing they have?
I found this really sweet and fun. My only criticism—even though it is a novella—is that I wanted more, as everything just happened so quickly. But Calder knows how to capture my heart.
