Sweet Rejection

by Lesley Jackson

Have you ever met somebody who’s had enough of being on the wrong side of rejection?

Meet Jackson Harper, who decided that the latest rejection of her manuscript by a large New York City publishing house would be the final rejection. She had a special distaste for Chester Mack—the man who kept rejecting her work and her voice.

Jackson took a bold leap into the speculative world of self-publishing using a pen name.

After the resounding success of her debut novel, Jackson garnered the attention of a smaller publisher, who catapulted her from self-booked events around the city to exposure as an up-and-coming author. Then she began to attract many new followers.

Her suddenly-number-one fan was the infamous Chester Mack!

Make no mistake—this is not one of those enemies to lovers books that plays out in the typical way. Jackson is the kind of female lead male love interests like Chester can’t stop thinking about.

It’s one of those emotional romance books for adults that warms your heart.

Just the right amount of tension pulls you through one of the most compelling slow burn romance books of its kind. Workplace romance books like this deliver in surprising and heartfelt ways.

But don’t take it from me—watch Jackson and Chester's story unfold for yourself.
