THE WORK BOYFRIEND

What happens when your quarter-life crisis blows up your entire world?

After a lot of hard work, Kelly's life is finally on an even keel. Her career is stable, if a bit boring. She's in a loving relationship with her college sweetheart, Rob, and they're living in a fantastic condo downtown. All her ducks are in a row. Except Rob wants to take the logical next step to get engaged... and Kelly isn't sure she can move her feet. The only person who gets her these days is her "work boyfriend," Garrett. They've got the days down pat, food court on Monday, Pho on Tuesday, and many coffee breaks in between. When life spirals out of control during the holidays, Kelly finds herself questioning what she really wants from her life... and who she wants in it. Rebecca Mardon is a Toronto-based author, publisher, and teacher. A lifelong reader and lover of romance, she can usually be found walking and reading. When not buried in a novel, she lives with her tennis-loving, musician husband and her hockey-obsessed son.
