About the book:
Ilene has sat back and watched as her friends have found love. She thought she had that once upon a time, but Stan wasn’t ready for a family. Being a single mother and working is all she has time for now. She has come to terms with this being her life and has dedicated her drive to her career. With a big promotion coming up, she shows the higher-ups that she deserves that position.
One thing she didn’t account for is the new hire that sweeps in and takes the promotion out from under her. The familiar face could cause problems if the office discovers their secret.
Can she convince the higher-ups that she deserves this position over Richard without letting their secret slip?
