Whoever thought achieving career goals could be boring? Not Duncan Witten, but here he is at forty-one, in his dream job… and hating it. Throw it all away for a challenge? Yes, please!
If only Dunc had known his challenging new job came with Paul Hanks, a man who redefines “stubborn.” They need to work together to meet targets, but thanks to Dunc’s idiot predecessor, Paul won’t take his calls or reply to emails.
There’s only one solution: travel across the country and confront Paul face-to-face. It’s time to take things out of the office.
Short, Sweet and Funny!
This is a wonderful short story of lust, at first sight, unknowingly being in a relationship you hoped for and some Out of the Office fun. I enjoyed the journey to get to know Dunc and Paul and their push and pull was funny. This is a great short story to get you out of your head and enjoy an everyday couple finds each other in an everyday world. It’s set in Australia and I love the Australianisms!!
A great short read with just enough heart and humor!!
Thanks for reading!
