Samwise Becker only wants to save his team’s jobs when he is summoned to London by his austere boss, Jonathan Frost. Selling bed and bath sets has never been his dream, but he feels connected to his team and wants to fight for them. A tour of the sales floor goes horribly wrong and Sam ends up with a concussion. When his boss mistakenly assumes he has amnesia, Sam suddenly finds himself living with his boss. Is fake amnesia the best way to save his team from being cut? Is Jonathan Frost as cold as he seems? Sam is about to find out…

Alexis Hall is such a hilarious writer and I find myself highlighting paragraphs of witty banter. Hall’s sense of humor is so detailed and smart, he really incorporates some form of comedy in every line of dialogue. I loved how Hall uses forced proximity to create extremely amusing situations that end up leading to deeper character growth. Sam has the best intentions, which only makes it funnier when things get more and more absurd. I also loved his cat, Gollum! Sam and Jonathan embody the classic grump/sunshine dynamic and I really enjoyed how they got to know each other better. As they learn more about each other, Hall also manages to weave in complicated family dynamics and grief. 

Readers who love a grump/sunshine dynamic, LGBTQ+ romance, and hilarious writing will love this book! I can’t wait to read more from Alexis Hall. 

Thank you so much to Alexis Hall, Sourcebooks Casablanca, and Netgalley for a free ARC in exchange for an honest review.
