The Colleague Conundrum: A Steamy Friends to Lovers Office Romance
Three years. Three hundred cups of coffee. One oblivious woman.
Three years of shared office space. Three years of Tuesday morning coffee, exactly how she likes it. Three years of donuts, soft eyes, and a hand on her lower back that she definitely doesn't think about.
Brooklyn is not catching feelings for her officemate. She's not.
Richard is patient. Practical. Infuriatingly calm. He has spreadsheets for everything — including, apparently, waiting for her to notice that he's been hers all along.
When a slip of the tongue (okay, two slips) changes everything, Brooklyn has to face the truth: they've been dating for years. She was just the last to know.
Now Richard's done waiting. And Brooklyn's about to discover exactly what happens when a man who plans everything finally gets the green light.
Turns out, patience has its rewards.
