FIFTEEN
Hot and Bothered Book Club
Holly
Alright, time to vote on the next book! There’s a new workplace romance I’ve been dying to read. #HotandBothered
June
Ohhh, The Grumpy Bossman? Yes, please.
Daisy
I’m here for it.
Kinsley
Absolutely not.
No.
Absolutely any other trope. I cannot do a boss romance right now.
June
Oh? Any particular reason?
Holly
Yes, please share with the class.
Kinsley
Sigh.
I didn’t want to get into it the other night, but I fucked up. I fucked up bad.
Daisy
What did you do?
June
Did you leave your curling wand plugged in all day again?
Holly
Locked your keys in the car?
June
Left Colin at the grocery store?
Holly
Only shaved one leg and wore a dress to work?
Kinsley
I only left Colin at the grocery store once. You know how traumatic it was for me. He didn’t even notice I had left. He was too busy looking at puzzles.
I told one of the senior partners he was a Dementor.
To his face.
Holly
I thought you didn’t like Harry Potter.
Kinsley
Really? That’s all you have to say?
June
I’m literally dying over here. RIP me.
Kinsley
I thought I was getting fired, but instead I got a promotion.
Daisy
Not sure I’m following you, Kins. Isn’t that supposed to be a good thing?
Kinsley
It would be if I weren’t working for the three hottest, most difficult men on the planet. Ellis and Ellis are twins! Can’t forget to mention that.
Holly
OMG #whychooseromance.
Daisy
Still not seeing a downside.
Kinsley
They are the worst.
Holly
#Bossholes #whychoose #Kinsleyislivingmylife
My favorite types of heroes—hot, grumpy, and bossy.
Kinsley
You’re not helping. Like, at all.
Holly
Kinsley and the bossholes!
Kinsley
It’s not funny. The legal secretaries who work for them last two weeks max. There’s a good chance by next week I’ll be fired. And then they’re going to black ball me from all the other law firms in Nashville. I’ll have to get a job as a waitress or a barista.
June
Nonsense. You’d make a terrible waitress.
And you hate making coffee.
But seriously, you’re awesome at your job. There’s no way the bossholes are going to fire you.
Holly
Alright, so workplace or why choose? Sorry, Kins, but you need to pick one.
Kinsley
Ava
Sorry, work has been crazy. My vote is why choose.
Daisy
Me too. #bucketlist

June
Y’all are too much today.
Holly
Coming from the girl living her HEA with the heartthrob football player.
June
Don’t you come after me.
Holly
You’re right. This is about Kinsley hiding her three sexy bosses from us. I will need details along with photographs at our next book club. Don’t disappoint us.
Kinsley
Wouldn’t dream of it. #Iwoulddoanythingforlovebutiwon’tdothat
