ABOUT

A workaholic radio station manager does her best to resist the charms of her corporate enemy in this swoony, You’ve Got Mail–inspired romance from #1 New York Times bestselling author B.K. Borison.

Maggie Lin has been seamlessly running her retired father’s radio station for years, keeping 101.6 LITE FM thriving, often at the expense of her own personal life. Her only friends are her coworkers—and her anonymous online pen pal. But when the future of the station is threatened by a Fortune 500 corporation, Maggie has to get creative to outsmart their shark of an acquisitions executive.

Cooper West arrives in Baltimore determined to put an end to Maggie’s stonewalling and finally collect his next big promotion. Armed with advice from his anonymous online friend and plenty of charm, Cooper somehow seems to know every move Maggie makes—just before she makes it. But in between the verbal sparring and office plotting, something else begins to grow. Something neither of them wants.

There’s a fine line between love and hate, and Cooper and Maggie are tap-dancing along the edge. Will their fledgling feelings be enough to bridge the gap between them? Or is this merger bad for business?

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS

Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
