Lucy can’t let Joshua beat her at anything-especially when a huge new promotion goes up for the taking. Trapped in a shared office together 40 (OK, 50 or 60) hours a week, they’ve become entrenched in an addictive, ridiculous never-ending game of one-upmanship. Everyone except for coldly efficient, impeccably attired, physically intimidating Joshua Templeman. She’s charming and accommodating and prides herself on being loved by everyone at Bexley & Gamin. 2) A person’s undoing 3) Joshua Templeman Lucy Hutton has always been certain that the nice girl can get the corner office. Nemesis (n.) 1) An opponent or rival whom a person cannot best or overcome.
Right Where I Want You by Jessica Hawkins We shouldn’t -but straddling that line could be so much fun.Ģ. There’s a fine line between love and hate-and we shouldn’t cross it.

The gorgeous man from the elevator was now my nemesis. Until I walked into my new boss’s office and met my competition. Maybe things here wouldn’t be so bad after all. His heated stare left me flush when I stepped off the elevator. You know the deal…your body lights up, fireworks go off, and the air around you crackles with electricity.

Annoyed, I decided to regift my ticket to the car that had evaded a fine. She’d ticketed a long line of cars-except for the Audi parked in front of me, which happened to be the same make and model as mine. While I lugged my belongings up to my new office, a meter maid wrote me a parking summons. I was late for the first day at my new job-a job I’d now have to compete for even though I’d already worked eight years to earn it, because of an unexpected merger. Bennett Fox walked into my life on one hell of a crappy Monday morning.
