Truce or Consequences
Forge a truce and accept the consequences...
Jillian Braden has been competing with George Crewes, and denying an instant attraction to him, since the first day she started as a manager in the software division at Gardiner D. Associates. Just when it seems their race to the top will have a winner, the company is suddenly floundering for funds. A private investor may be the answer to everyone’s potential employment woes, but he wants demonstrations of what the company can do. Can Jillian’s group save the company alone or should she swallow her pride and join forces with George to try to save them all?
Having focused on the promotion since before Jillian’s arrival, George set aside any possible personal interest in her when it became clear that she was the competition. But when the promotion and even his current job are in jeopardy, he’s forced to see her in a different light, efficient, effective, and perhaps a partner to success. Already convinced that Jillian’s group will likely overshadow, or worse, completely embarrass his group in the upcoming demonstrations to keep the company afloat, George is flabbergasted when Jillian makes him an offer to team up.
When Jillian and George choose to set aside their differences and unexpectedly discover the promotion they both desired might not compare to a possible future together, they find themselves in the middle of an office romance with plenty of gossip, resurfacing exes, interfering parents, and lecherous investors. Can a fragile new love triumph over life-long goals, money, family pressure, and even friendly pressure to win the day and take them to happily ever after?

All in all, this story was adorable. The first five pages had a lot of backstory all at once but after that, everything got going and it became fantastic. I love both Jillian and George. I'm guessing this isn't a standalone because the sketchy things happening at work wasn't resolved and the problems between Melissa and Taro weren't ever revealed and I really wish they were. However, I loved it.
