Toronto, On – “The Work Husband,” a novel by Author Rebecca Mardon, is a fantastically realistic story about a young woman, Kelly, who must make some difficult life decisions. Kelly, has a great life. The kind of life one might wish for, in fact. She has an upwardly-mobile career, and a stable, loving relationship with her college boyfriend, Rob. They’ve got a great condo, and he feels like they’re moving in the right direction. Towards something. Towards something, together. Except, the path in front of her might not be the way for Kelly at all, and the only person who gets it is Garrett, her “work boyfriend.” He’s the one who really gets how trapped she feels. When everything spirals out of control during the holidays, Kelly should be celebrating the future, except she finds herself questioning what she really wants from her life . . . and who she wants in it.
Many women will identify with Kelly in The Work Boyfriend and, as the story unfolds, readers will be dying to find out Kelly’s final decision for her future. Will she stay with Rob or tell Garrett how she feels about him? A perfect holiday rom com
