In this delightfully fiery rom-com from The Checklist author Addie Woolridge, even the worst situations have a silver lining.

Aspiring artist Neale Delacroix should be on top of the world. She's landed a spot in an exclusive art program that's sure to be her ticket to success, but then her best shot at stardom goes up in flames--literally. When her relationship follows suit, Neale finds herself a stone's throw from rock bottom.

Her heart broken and her dream deferred, Neale decides to work a soul-crushing nine-to-five job until the heat dies down. However, that's not exactly what happens when she meets Anthony, a sizzling coworker with a perfect smile.

Convinced that she breaks everything she touches, Neale's sworn off art and men. Yet her creative spirit still beckons, and she can't get Anthony out of her head. She's caught in that familiar space between daydreams and responsibilities, desperate to find a new way forward. With her future hanging in the balance, Neale must decide if she is down and out...or ready to bounce back.
