The only thing I love more than a good enemies-to-lovers romance, is a workplace romance that I can relate to. And Clare Gilmore’s debut romance, Love Interest, (which is set to be released on October 10th) definitely fits the bill! Casey Maitland has always preferred the reliability of numbers. Now a twenty-four-year-old finance expert working in Manhattan, she wonders if the open project manager position at her company―magazine powerhouse LC Publications―is a sign from the universe to pursue a career with a little more sparkle. That is, until she’s passed over for the job in favor of the board chairman’s son. Alex Harrison is handsome, Harvard-educated, and enigmatic. Everybody loves him―except for Casey. But when the two are thrown on the same project, what they discover about their company might change everything―including the dreams each of them is chasing and their mutual love interest. This debut romance was really cute! As a native New Yorker, I loved the setting of a NYC corporation for this workplace romance. Plus having a nerdy finance girl be the main character was super fun and different. I also loved the way both Casey and Alex grow into their relationship and also try to get to the root of why their ambitions are the way they are. Additionally, having such descriptive settings of Manhattan, Nashville, and London really helped the novel come to life. If you love workplace romances and want to feel like you’re experiencing a NYC 9-5 job and all of the antics that come along with it, then this book is for you! *I received an ARC from St. Martin’s Press in exchange from my honest opinion.
