Ink-Compatible

Manhattan, early 2000s.

"Fab" magazine: a glossy kingdom of stilettos, questionable trends, and Eleanor Thompson, a (mostly) benevolent Editor-in-Chief.

Navigating this world is Ashley Parker, a whip-smart editor whose reading glasses are as essential as her morning triple espresso. Life's a whirlwind of fashion emergencies and deciphering Eleanor's bizarre requests... until he shows up.

Jake Thompson. Eleanor's son. Ashley's arch-nemesis from college. Picture a golden retriever in human form, armed with a trust fund and a talent for chaos.

Their history? Epic pranks, disastrous study dates, and a rivalry that could curdle milk.

Now, Jake's back, lurking around "Fab" like a fashion-forward gargoyle. The tension between him and Ashley? Palpable. They bicker, they scheme, but beneath the surface, something's brewing.

It's a volatile mix of annoyance and... maybe something else?

Expect exploding sample sales, celebrity interviews gone sideways, and a chihuahua named Princess Consuela Banana Hammock (it's an Eleanor Thompson thing).

As Ashley and Jake stumble through the absurdities of the magazine world, they start to see each other in a new (slightly less homicidal) light.

But can they ditch the rivalry and embrace the awkward, undeniable spark? Or will their past and their pride keep them locked in a battle of wits and simmering hormones?

"Ink-Compatible" is a rom-com about second chances, unexpected love, and the delightfully weird world of 2000s Manhattan.
