One More Chance - E-book - ePub

When Kate moves to follow her dreams, she never expects to begin a relationship so soon after her arrival. After she declares her love for her boyfriend, he flees. After wallowing in misery for weeks, Kate's boss, Max, finally loses patience and gives Kate an ultimatum. Max hopes proximity will generate a rapport between them when he offers to engage in a false relationship to help Kate reunite with Alec.
As their ruse progresses, Kate realises that her feelings for Max have changed. When he hints about a closer relationship, she decides to pursue the attraction between them, never thinking Alec might impede her happiness. When Kate's ex attempts a reconciliation, her refusal angers him. Believing Kate has violated their agreement, Max retaliates by humiliating Kate in public, and when she returns home, it is clear that her job is untenable.
Without a reference, Kate's job opportunities are limited, so she throws herself at the mercy of an acquaintance. While Kate's professional life soars, an unexpected meeting starts Max questioning his understanding of what happened between them. When his assistant explains her knowledge of the relationship breakdown, Max realises that he has made a massive mistake. Will Kate accept an apology and give him a second chance?
