Celluloid editorial verdict
What is Romance Is a Bonus Book about?
A once-celebrated copywriter re-enters the job market after a divorce and a long gap in her CV, and discovers that her qualifications now count against her. She lies her way into a temporary support role at a publishing house where the youngest editor-in-chief the company has ever had happens to be the friend who has quietly loved her since childhood. Manuscripts, impossible deadlines and an office of people who still believe in books do the rest.
