Let's Call a Truce

A Novel

De: Amy Buchanan

Narrado por: Charlotte North

LET’S CALL A TRUCE is a sexy contemporary romance about second chances at life and love, bursting with humor and a touch of angst from debut author, Amy Buchanan.

After Juliana Ryan's husband dies unexpectedly, leaving her with two grieving kids and a stunted career from years as a stay-at-home mom, she has no choice but to make it work all on her own. But her confidence crashes around her when she overhears her condescending but infuriatingly attractive new colleague, Ben Thomas, talking about how her kids and inexperience are a liability the company can’t afford. This sets off a feud between the two, as Juliana vows to prove him wrong.

Two years later, their feud rages on, but it may be charged with something they aren't willing to admit. When they are forced onto a career-making project together, Juliana has no choice but to call a truce. As their lives become more intertwined in and out of the office, Juliana finds it hard to ignore Ben’s perpetual smile and charming determination. What started as a truce grows into more, as boardroom-clearing arguments turn to desk-clearing kisses. Could the man she deemed her nemesis understand her life–her stress and responsibilities–better than anyone?

But just when Juliana decides to open her heart again, Ben’s past threatens their newfound bliss, and she has to figure out whether this second chance at love is worth it after all.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Buchanan’s debut hits all of the right notes.. This twist on the enemies-to-lovers trope that also sensitively explores dating while grieving is perfect for fans of workplace romances."—Library Journal

"Amy Buchanan's Let's Call a Truce starts as a tension-filled conflict between workplace nemeses but ends as a touching story of love and family. The struggles Juliana faces as a widowed mother trying to make her way back in the workplace felt so real, and it's so satisfying to watch her realize that instead of her greatest enemy, Ben might just be her biggest supporter. As a Florida native myself, I also couldn't help but love the way Buchanan brought that setting to life! Let's Call a Truce felt like a real, lived-in romance between two people who deserve a new beginning, and who found it with each other."—Alicia Thompson, USA Today bestselling author of With Love, from Cold World

"Amy Buchanan's debut had me chuckling one minute and choked up with emotion the next. With a perfect balance of LOL moments, punchy banter laced with sexual tension, and heartwarming moments of found family, grief, and second chances in love, Let's Call a Truce is an outstanding debut by a fresh voice in contemporary romance."—Meredith Schorr, author of As Seen on TV
