Goodreads Synopsis
One minute, Nico Juárez is enjoying the stability of their job as senior editor at Unified Theory Press, a publishing house specializing in books about the paranormal. The next minute, they're stuck with a terrible new boss and a clueless (yet uncomfortably cute) new assistant. Jasper Milton just wanted healthcare and to keep his sexy side-hustle a secret. Now he's faced with an adorable, yet prickly, supervisor and a company thrown into chaos. Nico and Jasper must team up to stay sane. Hopefully, they won't fall in love—or be squashed by Bigfoot—in the process.

I aim to change that. I'm Joan, the founder and CEO of Trans Book Box. I'm an avid reader, a booktuber, a guinea pig parent, and an educator. I identify as trans non-binary, queer, and disabled. Thank you for joining us on this journey!
