Office Date Read online

  “Shhh, shhh, shhh, little bird.” Max puts a finger to Dustin’s lips. “You know how the games go. The old interns pick them out. I merely orchestrate the love.”

  Dustin rolls his eyes.

  “Saw that.” Max adjusts his tie. “Now go feed the gecko, don’t forget about the goat, and remember not to breathe too heavy around me. It’s agitating.”

  “I have allergies.”

  “Excuses.” Max grins. “Oh, and the goat has the shits.”

  Dustin curses as Max walks into the boardroom. “Winners, let me introduce you to some of your co-workers. First line of business now that you’ve fallen in love and decided to be giant winners—you get to pick next year’s games.”

  Jack jumps out of his seat. “THIS IS THE BEST MOMENT OF MY LIFE.”

  Ivy kicks him. “Really?”

  “Second?”

  She kicks him again. “Fifth, tenth, damn it, Ivy, I want to torture people!”

  Max laughs. “Knew I picked the right people. Now stop kissing long enough to sign your contracts, and kiddos… make it rain pain.”

  Max has never, in his career, and years later will admit to this, seen a former intern look more evil in the way he smiled.

  Good.

  Ah, little grasshopper.

  Fantastic.

  Acknowledgments

  Without God or Jill, this book would not have ever gotten written, lol. It was something I was working on while working on scripts, tv stuff, and other publishing deadlines and was constantly in the back of my head needing to get done. Finally, I was put on a schedule (again, thanks Jill!), and here we are!

  I’m so pumped to bring you this silly, crazy little Legends of the Temple/Squid Games fun. We all need a little chaos in our lives when it comes to books, you know what I mean? Where books are just silly and fun and no stress. Hopefully, this was that book for you.

  Thanks to Valentine PR, my agent Nicole, my team of amazing, incredible women, and Rachel’s New Rockin Readers on Facebook. So thankful.

  Love you all.

  Thank you for reading!
