Produktbeschreibung

In this whip-smart romance, a woman desperate to keep her start-up afloat is forced to pose as her brother's assistant during a tech competition, hoping a male-led company will be taken more seriously, only to find her secret identity compromised when she has a hot one-night stand with the head of the competition's assistant.

When tech founder Jess Cole is struggling to gain funding for her company, she begins to wonder if it's because she's a woman in the male-dominated tech industryespecially due to a former incident and subsequent NDA that's been following her for years. In an act of financial desperation, she applies to a competition for start-ups using her twin brother Spencer's name, pretending to be a man. To her surprise, it works! As though she's discovered the ultimate industry cheat code, Jess and Spencer are invited into the exclusive world of Tech Rumble, an annual innovation competition hosted on the world's stage by tech darling Dominic Orsino.

Spencer, an out-of-work actor, must pretend to be the CEO, and Jess must become his loyal assistant, Violet. Spencer is thrust into the limelight; charming Dominic and the competition judges but making promises Jess can't keepor afford.

Violet is introduced to the handsome Oliver, a fellow assistant who shows her how to let her hair down and enjoy life outside the pressures of her job. But she soon discovers falling for Oliver is riskier than any mistake Spencer has made.

During wild nights with Oliver in Rome, secret rendezvous in Paris, and luxurious parties in Vienna, Jess must navigate the competition and try to stay on top of her lies, especially when someone from her past comes sniffing around, putting her ruse at risk.

Autorenporträt

Annabelle Slator grew up writing stories in the depths of the British countryside. After achieving a degree in creative writing, she spent most of her late teens and early twenties writing social media and blog posts for start-ups and tech companies in London. Nowadays, if she isn't spending time writing, you can almost always find her obsessing over niche internet drama, practicing her fencing parry or mooching around vintage fairs and flea markets with her husband and two mini dachshunds, Gruffalo and Gryffin.
