There’s only one place this could go…but it’s good fun getting there.” - People “‘Hating someone feels disturbingly similar to being in love,’ says Lucy Hutton, who can’t stand fellow executive assistant Joshua. Maybe Lucy Hutton doesn’t hate Joshua Templeman. The stakes have never been higher and as the competition heats up and the barriers between them begin to fall down, Lucy starts questioning just who her opponent truly is and whether this man she’s hated all this time is even the real Josh. When a new executive position is announced, Josh and Lucy are top contenders for the promotion, but the idea of working for the other is so unthinkable that they strike a deal: whoever doesn’t get the job will walk away. Trapped in a shared office together five days a week, they’ve become entrenched in an addictive, never-ending game of one-upmanship. And he gets under her skin like no one else can. Josh is the dark and brooding to Lucy’s light and cheery, the crisp pressed suit to her retro outfits and bright red lipstick. Everyone except sarcastic, cynical, and intimidating Joshua Templeman. She’s charming and accommodating and prides herself on being loved by everyone. Lucy Hutton has always believed that the nice girl can get the corner office.

Now a movie starring Lucy Hale and Austin Stowell, USA Today bestselling author Sally Thorne’s hilarious and sexy workplace comedy all about that thin, fine line between hate and love.
