博客來Is he something she can get out of her system? Or is he going to destroy everything she thought she knew about life... and herself?
Fiercely independent Vanessa Marnet is determined to advance her career as the first woman reporter at L’Entreprise newspaper. Orphaned as a teenager, she’s relied largely on her own persistence to rise from a secretarial position to the culture section’s star writer. Just when the next step up seems to be within reach, a competitor purchases the paper and begins a hasty and messy merger of the two publications, throwing everything Vanessa has worked for into jeopardy.
To make matters worse, her new coworker is the object of her greatest professional rivalry. Benoit Levin is handsome and infuriating, and he’s her direct competitor in what’s becoming a hostile workplace. Vanessa goes to great personal lengths to shine next to Benoit. But instead of beating him, they’re forced to team up on a reporting trip to a popular summer getaway on the northern coast.
Thrown together, they experience a series of very unromantic travel mishaps. And slowly Benoit begins to loosen Vanessa’s uptight professionalism. Soon, competitive tension changes into something humiliatingly close to romance. But before true love can win Vanessa over, she has to learn that sometimes depending on others actually makes a person stronger.
