One of CNN and PopSugar's Best Books of January.

Shay Goldstein has worked at her Seattle radio station for nearly a decade. But lately, she's been clashing with her new colleague, Dominic Yun—who's fresh off a journalism course and convinced he knows everything about radio.

When the station needs a new concept, Shay proposes The Ex Talk, where two exes give relationship advice live on air. Given they already despise each other, Shay and Dominic are the perfect co-hosts.

Their spiky dynamic is an instant hit, and soon The Ex Talk is climbing the charts.

But when Shay and Dominic start to fall for each other, is this the start of something amazing—or the end of their careers?

I was disappointed

It was an okay story. The narrator made the character seem depressed. The sex scenes were steamy, but the story line was a bit cringe for me. I did enjoy the diversity and the real issues women face in the workplace. It would be a better book to read in my opinion
