More about the book
In a heartfelt debut, a young woman learns she must abandon her dream job to craft her own narrative for a happy ending. Meet Nora Hughes, an overworked and underpaid editorial assistant at Parsons Press, where she believed she had found her dream career in publishing. After five years of managing lunch orders and dealing with difficult authors, Nora realizes that dream jobs may be a myth. As her life unravels and Parsons faces cutbacks, she receives devastating news: her already meager salary is being slashed. Struggling to pay rent and finding solace in the novels she once cherished, Nora takes a risky step to moonlight for a rival publisher, hoping to make ends meet and potentially lure away some of Parsons' authors. Complicating matters is Andrew Santos, a bestselling author from Parsons whose future is now intertwined with hers. Nora must navigate her loyalties—between her new job, the optimistic Andrew, and her own aspirations. This story is a poignant exploration of mental health, happiness, and the challenges of being a young woman trying to shape her life. Nora Hughes is a relatable heroine for anyone seeking to move beyond their twenties and create their own storybook life.
