Title: The Assignment
Author: Penelope Ward
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Release Date: February 28, 2022
BLURB
From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward, comes a new standalone novel.
Reasons why I should not be drawn to Troy Serrano.
Number one: He’s obnoxious.
Number two: He and I were enemies over a decade ago in high school.
Number three: He’s my friend’s ex-boyfriend.
I could go on and on, really.
When my boss gives me an unwanted assignment and tells me it involves spending time with the grandson of one of our residents—the grandson turns out to be Troy. He’s now as successful as he is undeniably handsome.
Lucky me. Four hours a week of having to deal with his insufferable personality and unsolicited advice.
The only consolation is getting to stare at his annoyingly gorgeous face in between our many arguments.
Eventually, though, we slowly warm to each other and our outings become something I actually look forward to.
What’s happening to me?
Apparently, I misunderstood the assignment, because it certainly didn’t include thinking about Troy when I close my eyes at night, imagining what it would be like with him—just once. All the while hating myself for fantasizing about a guy who’s all wrong for me. A guy whose car I keyed back in the day. (Long story, but he deserved it.)
That’s all this is—a fantasy.
Well, until that one night at the bar.
The night Troy and I run into each other, and all of our pent-up frustration comes barreling out.
Still, I refuse to accept that it means anything.
There’s no way the guy I’m supposed to hate is also the one I can’t live without.

Virginia’s Review
This enemies to lovers romance has it all. Troy and Aspyn, as well as Troy’s grandfather and Aspyn’s niece, stole my heart.
Troy and Asypn are clearly meant to be together. If they can just be on each other’s presence without arguing!! Their banter is great and when they are sweet to each other it’s even better.
One thing I loved about this book was how the characters developed and grew. Both of them, but especially Troy, did some soul searching and looked inside themselves to grow and see what they really want. Troy has some issues to overcome and he has to learn he’s worthy of love and I enjoyed watching his growth.
This story is about second chances and letting go of the past and forgiving ourselves and others. It’s about family. And it’s wonderful.
