Something to Talk About
A showrunner and her assistant give the world something to talk about when they accidentally fuel a ridiculous rumor in this debut romance.
Hollywood powerhouse Jo is photographed making her assistant Emma laugh on the red carpet, and just like that, the tabloids declare them a couple. The so-called scandal couldn't come at a worse time—threatening Emma's promotion and Jo's new movie.
As the gossip spreads, it starts to affect all areas of their lives. Paparazzi are following them outside the office, coworkers are treating them differently, and a “source” is feeding information to the media. But their only comment is “no comment”.
With the launch of Jo’s film project fast approaching, the two women begin to spend even more time together, getting along famously. Emma seems to have a sixth sense for knowing what Jo needs. And Jo, known for being aloof and outwardly cold, opens up to Emma in a way neither of them expects. They begin to realize the rumor might not be so off base after all…but is acting on the spark between them worth fanning the gossip flames?

My thoughts contain spoilers so if you're dead set on avoiding them, scroll away. But I'm not hiding this behind a spoiler button because I think at least one review of this book should be out there with the information that people want to know.
I got over 80% through this alleged romance before there was an intentional kiss between the main characters. Until more than halfway into the book, this was just an employer/employee plot. Not even terribly friendly. And the one & only spicy scene isn't worth the wait.
Is the writing good? Sure, I guess. No real complaints there.
But the story? No one needs this story. Easily the most boring romance novel I've ever read & I used to read cishet romance once upon a time.
Save yourself the frustration & skip this one.
