‘The funniest novel I’ve read in ages! But also the most romantic! Had me by turns laughing and swooning. This is a comedy of manners for anyone who loves Curtis Sittenfeld, Nora Ephron, Alison Espach, or, well, anyone’ Joanna Rackoff, author of My Salinger Year

Rebecca Blume knows two things about Ben Heath: He’s a new editor at a rival publishing division, and he has terrible desk-sharing skills.

What starts as a battle of passive-aggressive Post-it notes escalates after the death of literary titan Edward David Adams, A.K.A. "the Lion," when Rebecca and Ben are thrown into a fierce competition to land his estate.

But when secrets about the Lion emerge, they are forced to ask--what role do they want to play in his legacy?

And most importantly, is their Post-it war actually . . . flirting?
