Office Grump: An Enemies to Lovers Romance

KINDLE LINK → https://amzn.to/2IvmjxS

Wall Street Journal bestselling author Nicole Snow returns with a fierce and hilarious office romance where two sworn enemies make undeniable lovers.

My “interview” with bosshole supreme was anything but normal.
He picked the worst day ever to chase me off my favorite park bench.
I retaliated with a spray of cinnamon latte all over his Italian shoes.
Then—for some unholy reason—Magnus Heron offered me a job.

Even his name sounds like a piece of work.
Guess what? He is.
But when you're single, broke, and barely surviving in Chicago, you hop on the gift horse offering a six-figure salary and ride.
I picked the stallion on a one-way trip to hell.

It's not the impossibly long hours working under Grump-zilla.
It's not the fact that he's snarly, demanding, horribly rich, and chiseled.
It's not even the pesky way he makes me blush every flipping time we're together.
Mag is my boss. I'm his lowly assistant. Some rules are carved in stone.

That's my mantra until we're sharing a sunset too beautiful for life.
Alone with wandering lips, whispered secrets, and disaster in the making.
The plan was simple: punch the clock, get paid, and keep hating my boss.
What's the blueprint when the office grump brings me to my knees?

Full-length enemies-to-lovers romance with the banter, intrigue, and slow-burn love worthy of a Happily Ever After. The bossman from Hades meets the hellion he totally can't stand—until he can't live without her.

Paige Holly has had it up to here with the piece of work she calls boss. He wanted her fired the first day on the job. He banned her from heels. He's uptight, devilishly handsome, and too good at keeping her up for reasons that have nothing to do with the avalanche of work he buries her under.

Ward Brandt loathes the hellion assistant his grandmother insisted he take on. She's mouthy, capable, whip-smart, and too good at turning his morning coffee into a sugar lick. Putting a ring on her finger? Unthinkable. Until the day fate punches his oh-so-orderly world to smithereens, and a pretend engagement to Miss Wrong becomes far more than make-believe.

Slow-burn sweetness. Sheets on fire. Bosshole angst. Banter city. Enemies-to-lovers laughs.

My very best office rom-com ever is live, party people. No fussing, just so many feel-good butterflies.

Not for love. Not for real. Not without a mammoth payoff.
Of course, this fortune comes with a ginormous snag—Ward Brandt.

Call me bananas.
I must be short of a full bushel rejecting Chicago's finest billionaire.
Who knew he was my boss when he crashed my worst date ever?
Oh, but he found out.
He swore I wasn't fit for Brandt Ideas, chewed me up, and spat me back out.
I vowed I'd prove him wrong—and sabotage a metric ton of his coffee.

Then tragedy strikes, upending his limitless ego.
Guess who needs an image makeover to shore up the family business.
Big fat hell no.
King Snarlypants has a peanut-sized heart and a chip on his shoulder bigger than a redwood.

Find another sucker, Ward-hole.
Even if I agreed, my shields are up.
No magnetic kisses. Zero butterflies. Nix the blushing when everyone gushes over what a “perfect couple” we'd be.
Then again...it's just ninety days and mama needs a windfall.
What's one little white wedding lie with a bossy grump built like a god?

Reese Halle is stuck with the biggest bosshole in the known universe. He's moody, demanding, and a dumpster fire would be an improvement on his wicked reputation. His atrociously good looks might make it hard to loathe him—if only he never opened his mouth to talk.

Nick Brandt has ninety-nine problems and his hellion driver is one more. She's frosty, intelligent, and totally unimpressed by his bosshole act.

And when her world crumbles, giving him a chance to make things right with Miss Impossible.

Signing on as a company driver for Brandt Ideas felt like a dream.
Big-girl salary. Stellar benefits. Glorious people—minus one.
Nicholas Brandt was put on Earth to drive me insane.

I invite disasters fated to rip my heart out.

Dakota Poe was mending a broken heart when she smacked into him. The gorgeous, intimidating suit who gave chase because she snagged the cafe's last cinnamon roll. He acted like his life depended on that pastry. She wasn't making any deals. That was supposed to be the end of it—until the universe decided she'd be calling him “boss.”

Lincoln Burns is a human storm. His life is work, work, and also work. When Miss Poe—or Nevermore as he calls her—blows into his life, it's hard to focus. He needs a top-notch copywriter to conquer the wedding market. Not a smart-mouthed imp who tempts him daily to take her over his knee. Not a woman who despises weddings when there's a fake engagement scheme in the works. Definitely not a girl who's too good at peeling back his defenses, his secrets, and tempting him to break rules written in stone (and HR policies).

Cinnamon roll fights. Rainy kisses. Poe jokes. Banter. Clashing hearts and sheet-ripping nights.

It's all here in this sweet and spicy and insanely emotional love saga disguised as a book! I'm so flipping excited for you to meet Lincoln and Dakota that I hope you'll dive right in.

Sometimes he rages about the high crime of jacking his precious pastry.
Sometimes he offers you ludicrous bribes to buy it back.
And sometimes—after shattering your faith in humanity—you find out he's your new boss.

I'm not laughing.
My sweet tooth betrayed me and Lincoln Burns is one bad sugar rush.
A coldhearted grump. A mile-wide ego. An eligible bachelor who doesn't “do” dating.
Did I mention Mr. Congeniality runs a fashion empire with weddings in its sights?
Of course he does.
And, of course, weddings make me gag after my ex made my heart roadkill.

Eliza Angelo, daydream believer and coffee-nerd extraordinaire, doesn't usually get in strange men's faces. But she never expected the chiseled, cocky suit snarling at her favorite neighborhood barista. The man was begging for an ego cheek. She delivered. And for her trouble, she won the most unlikely job offer ever with one big certifiably grumpy alpha catch—answering to him.

Cole Lancaster never thought he'd find his new muse and a massive headache in the same striking woman with a mouth from Hades. Too bad there's no denying her coffee genius, and the fact that she gets along with his teenage daughter is just icing on the cake. Except Cole doesn't do cake—or artsy young women he just can't evict from his head. So when he dares her to do the unthinkable—work under him—it's all business. Purely professional (if you can call that banter professional). Temporary.

Until one reckless slip into passion says no flipping way. Then it's steamy, strong, and so complicated that even a supergrump and Miss Sunshine could start believing in impossible forevers.

Holy hot bookness, you guys, it's here! Are you ready for the single dad grump, the firestarter, and all the caffeinated kisses you can handle? Cole and Eliza carved off a piece of my soul and now it's your turn.

Yes, I just gave him an ego check he'll never forget.

Piper Renee knew she was in for it when she woke up with a stranger showering in her hotel room. But she didn't guess he'd be so outrageously hot—or moody. She didn't expect butterflies on the “date” where he tried to make everything right. She never imagined he'd barge into her life again with her entire future clenched in one grumpy alpha hand and her heart in the other.

Brock Winthrope rules a hotel empire worth billions with an iron fist and just as many problems. The mouthy, gorgeous bird nerd who could've buried him in scandal is one more. How the hell did she wind up on payroll? And how did she get so good at bringing his company the magic it lacks? More importantly, how does she overwhelm every sane thought in his cranky head with the bittersweet memory of a fateful kiss that was never meant to be?

There's one thing worse than one bossy date. One more.

Destiny Lancaster never thought she'd cross paths with the grumpiest stranger again. She only tried to save his life—but the man had other plans with his kayak and a storm. He also didn't hold back his gruff, control freaky, stick-up-the-wowza attitude that left her steaming until she stumbled on the perfect opportunity to save a few more cute animals.

A wild twist of fate throws together two total opposites in this steamy and hysterical grumpy sunshine romance from Wall Street Journal bestselling author Nicole Snow.

Trust me, I'm not falling for a human porcupine.
I don't do older men with baggage a mile long.
Billionaires? Nope, I'm Miss Independence, thank you very much.
And when a man with the emotional intelligence of a cucumber decides to boss me around?
Hoo boy.

Shepherd Foster and I are utterly incompatible.
He still can't get over the day we met when I questioned Mr. High and Mighty's judgment.
He's also holding the key—and the moolah—to my animal rescue dreams.
I'm only putting up with this torture for the cute otters, I swear.

My ideas will outshine Seattle's grumpiest egomaniac.
If only Shepherd's scowls and barbed words weren't attached to a body crafted for sin.
I still don't know how it happened.

Don't ask me why I let his cruel mouth kiss me into a smoldering wreck.
Don't remind me that messy nights in Eden with my boss carry a brutal price.

Because there's one way this ends if Shepherd damn Foster gets his hooks in my heart.
Disaster.
