Plans change and it's unclear if love, career, or both will meet them at the finish line. Britta Colby works for a lifestyle website, and when tasked to write about her experience with a hot new body-positive fitness app that includes personal coaching, she knows it's a major opportunity to prove she should write for the site full-time. As CEO of the FitMi Fitness app, Wes Lawson finally has the financial security he grew up without, but despite his success, his floundering love life and complicated family situation leaves him feeling isolated and unfulfilled. He decides to get back to what he loves—coaching. Britta’s his first new client and they click immediately. As weeks pass, she’s surprised at how much she enjoys experimenting with her exercise routine. He’s surprised at how much he looks forward to talking to her every day. They convince themselves their attraction is harmless, but when they start working out in person, Wes and Britta find it increasingly challenging to deny their chemistry and maintain a professional distance. Wes isn’t supposed to be training clients, much less meeting with them, and Britta’s credibility will be sunk if the lifestyle site finds out she’s practically dating the fitness coach she’s reviewing. Walking away from each other is the smartest thing to do, but running side by side feels like the start of something big.

Book excerpt: Don't miss this satisfying, swoony, laugh-out-loud romantic comedy perfect for readers who love Christina Lauren, Emily Henry, and Helena Hunting Why am I hiding behind a dumpster at the Gas-N-Go in my pajamas, spying on Will? A month ago I was America's favorite TV relationships expert. Now? I'm the loser facing a major scandal, whose catastrophic love life is splashed across TMZ, social media, and every gossip show and supermarket tabloid — all because I got dumped by my husband on national TV. For a reality TV star. And that's not even the worst part. Now, I'm scrambling to un-shamble my life, make a comeback, and salvage what's left of my heart and my career — which is constantly complicated by the fact that I keep publicly screwing up (on camera, no less), my publicist is advising me to do some (let's say questionable) stuff to get my career back on track, and most of all, because I can't tell if my insanely sexy divorce attorney Holt is flirting with me, or just giving me legal advice. It definitely feels like flirting. Like, the best flirting of my entire life — the kind that makes all your parts tingle, not just your toes. Is that a bad thing? Yeah, it is — because if I fall for him, we'll both be torpedoing our careers, not to mention everything else that really matters to me. It's just so hard to stop...
