Description

A swoony and page-turning second-chance romcom that puts a unique twist on fake dating!

To get her dream job, she'll have to date her worst nightmare...

Grace Hastings is in a rut. Her career is stagnating, her boss is a leech, and she feels like a fraud working for Fate, a dating app whose ethos she no longer believes in. And don't even get her started on the state of her love life.

So when the company's CEO offers her an opportunity for a big promotion and the chance to work on the launch of a dating app that she actually cares about, Grace can't believe her luck.

That is, until she discovers that she must test drive a series of 'first dates' with her competition for the job—notorious socialite playboy and Grace's biggest work rival, Eric Bancroft.

But Grace refuses to give up her dream job because of a man. And besides, how romantic can a handful of fake dates with your biggest rival really be?

There's absolutely no way it's an office romance waiting to happen.

About the Author

Annabelle Slator grew up writing stories in the depths of the British countryside. After achieving a degree in creative writing spent most of her late teens and early twenties writing social media and blog posts for start-ups and tech companies in London. Nowadays, if she isn't spending time writing, you can almost always find her obsessing over niche internet drama, practicing her fencing parry or mooching around vintage fairs and flea markets with her husband and two mini dachshunds, Gruffalo and Gryffin. The Launch Date is Annabelle's first book, inspired by her time working at the global dating app, Bumble.
