[REMOVED FOR PUBLISHING - NOV 1] Former childhood enemies Julian and Juniper are forced to work together, but a simple exchange could change everything-he needs help with his case and she needs a fake boyfriend. *** Julian has finally graduated from law school and is on the way to his new gig as an associate attorney. Everything feels perfect, until he finds he's sharing an office with none other than Juniper, his sister's best friend and his childhood enemy. Working with her is a nightmare. She's stubborn, challenges everything he says, and is way too good at her job. So good that Julian is forced to look to her for help on a tough case he has, to which she agrees but requests something in return: the number of Julian's old college roommate, Noah. But as the days and long, late nights go on with case work, the two coworkers start to realize they might not hate each other as much as they thought. And when Noah bails on being her date to a wedding, Julian is ready to step in-but he'd never let her know how happy it makes him. There's a fine line, he learns, between someone who keeps him from happiness, and someone who is his happiness.
