We welcome Christine d'Abo today to talk about her newest release.

Thank you for having me here today. I’m so happy to be able
to talk to you about my new book, WORKING IT, which is book one in my new
Ringside Romance series. Don’t let the series title fool you, this is low on
the boxing and high on sexual tension.
As an avid reader of all things romance, I personally love
it when authors take chances and play around with what we consider typical
romance tropes. Those situations that for whatever reason, really work for us
as lovers of romance. One of my personal favorite tropes is the whole
boss-assistant dynamic. There’s something wonderful about the tension that can
be created when two people are working together, under pressure and in close
quarters, that appeals to me.
I wanted to take this trope and do something a little fun
with it. What would happen if both the characters were gay? What if they were
so vastly different that under any other circumstance they probably never meet,
let alone fall in love? What if they worked day in and day out in an office
together?
In WORKING IT, Nolan Carmichael is working through the
trauma of a serious car accident. He gets a job as Zack Anderson’s executive
assistant, a position that no one at the company wants. Somehow the two of them
work through their differences and fall in love.
I hope you’ll come along for the ride.

About Working It
Nolan Carmichael is getting a fresh start—new career, new company, new
life. The only problem is, he liked his old life just fine . . . until an
accident robbed him of his health, his job, his self-confidence, and his
ability to go out in public without having anxiety attacks.
Zack Anderson has scared away his last four executive assistants. So
when he hires Nolan on a whim, he’s not too worried, since Nolan will be gone
within the week anyway. Two weeks later, Nolan has made himself indispensable,
completely reforming Zack’s schedule, life . . . and libido.
But in a company already torn by internal politics, one wrong step
could ruin both their careers. And not only are they working to reopen Ringside
Gym, Zack’s retreat when he was a troubled teen, but they also can’t help
themselves falling for each other. If only the rest of their lives could go as
smoothly as things do when they’re alone together.

Congratulations on the release, Christine. It is a fascinating trope, though I'm convinced that romance in the office is not a good idea (at least in my experience)
