Workplace Romance

Colleagues, rivals, and inconvenient chemistry on company time.

7 books on this shelf, newest first.

Workplace romance turns professional friction into romantic tension. Proximity is built into the calendar, competence is attractive, and every ordinary meeting carries the risk of revealing far too much.

Where to start: For sharper banter, start with office rivals. Academic workplaces add research competition; small businesses usually deliver a warmer, lower-stakes version.
