Hot Desk - Zara Stoneley

I received an advance review copy for free thanks to NetGalley and HarperCollins and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Alice loves her job and wants to keep it – whatever the price. But then she’s told the company is switching to flexible working and hot desking…Alice’s desk might look a mess, but she knows exactly where everything is. Or she did. Until she found out she’s going to share it with the most annoying guy in the office.
 
Jamie can work from anywhere. He’s quite happy to sweep his work life into a box at the end of the working day. But can sharing a desk with Alice be as much fun as teasing her in person?

I am not sure what I was expecting from this book, but it was so well-written it was addictive. I think this is the first book that mentions Covid that I have managed to look past the pandemic theme - although it was nice to escape back to a world where Covid was no longer an issue. This book focuses on the developing friendship of Jamie and Alice.

I thought that this was a sweet, fun read and I really enjoyed the different methods of communication utilised by the colleagues having to share a desk.
