Synopsis

She came to London to build a career. Instead, she accidentally became the office's biggest scandal.

Tamsin Penrose is an ambitious editorial assistant from a small town, struggling to survive the ruthless world of a prestigious London publishing house. Then, almost overnight, everything changes. Her colleagues suddenly treat her like someone important. She gets the best desk, unexpected privileges, invitations to senior meetings-and one very dangerous rumour begins to spread.

Apparently, Tamsin is secretly involved with Alistair Ashcroft, the company owner's formidable son and its newly appointed executive.

There is only one problem.

It isn't true.

At first, Tamsin decides not to correct the misunderstanding. For the first time, people are listening to her. The rumour gives her the confidence and influence she desperately needs.

But Alistair has no idea what everyone thinks is happening between them.

He is focused, controlled and almost impossible to read. Every innocent conversation between them sounds scandalous to the rest of the office, while every attempt Tamsin makes to keep the rumour alive only makes matters worse.

Then the gossip turns into something much bigger.

Secrets begin surfacing. Someone inside the company knows far too much. Trust becomes dangerous, professional boundaries start to blur, and Tamsin finds herself protecting not only a carefully constructed lie-but the man at its centre.

Because the most complicated part of the misunderstanding is no longer pretending to care about Alistair.

It is realizing that she actually does.

À propos de l'auteur

Gareth Stone is an engineer, author, and independent publisher with a passion for stories, people, and places.

Alongside his professional work as an engineer, Gareth has published more than ten books independently, building his writing career through a combination of creativity, curiosity, and a strong belief in telling engaging stories.

Travel is also an important part of Gareth's life and work. His career gives him opportunities to travel around the world, meet people from different cultures, and experience places far beyond his everyday surroundings. Having already visited more than 40 countries, he has developed a fascination with the different personalities, conversations, landscapes, and unexpected encounters that make every journey memorable.

Those experiences often influence the way he approaches fiction. Gareth enjoys observing people, exploring relationships, and finding humour and tension in ordinary situations that can suddenly become extraordinary.

As an independent publisher, he values creative freedom and the direct connection between author and reader. His goal is simple: to create entertaining stories that are easy to fall into, difficult to put down, and memorable long after the final page.

When he is not engineering, writing, publishing, or travelling, Gareth is usually looking for his next story-and there is a good chance it will begin with meeting someone he has never met before, somewhere he has never been before.
