Here to Stay
by Adriana Herrera
****Copy from NetGalley in return for an honest review*****
I really enjoyed this. It's a slow burn, work rivalry type romance, that has plenty of reasons that the leads should be trying to avoid each other - but they just can't help themselves. What I really liked about this is that it manages to dance the line of what is acceptable workplace behaviour really well. Both characters are super competant at their jobs, and they keep their work seperate from their relationship. I read Farrah Rochon's The Boyfriend Project a couple of months back, and pretty much my only problem with that* was the way that the office subplot worked out - with the deception from the hero from the start, but particularly to resolve the situation - and this is much better at the office side of things than that was. I liked this a lot - I liked the idea of a relationship being a haven and also bringing out the best in you. Lovely.
*and it is a problem that has bothered me more as I thought about the book afterwards than it did in the first throes of reading it
