A major dilemma. An unlikely hero.

A lot of inappropriate texting.

Olivia Diamond’s life is anything but sparkling. She’s still working through the most embarrassing break-up of the century, and now the promotion she thought was a done deal is turning into an impossible dream.

If being the only person on her sales team with a uterus wasn’t hard enough, now her boys’ club boss wants Olivia to date a client in order to close a massive deal. She wouldn’t. She couldn’t.

Enter Gavin Scott, Olivia’s least favorite and most attractive colleague. He’s here to save the day. Well, he’s here to try. And he’s hoping to do it all without revealing that he’s been crushing on Olivia since the day they started working together.

Not Safe for Work follows a chaotic and serendipitous chain of events that will have you laughing, raging, and swooning in every chapter. It’s a story of discovering your place in a world that’s working against you–and of finding love where you least expect it.

Rating: 4.5/5 stars“Not Safe For Work” by Lindsey Lanza is a captivating blend of romance, wit, and workplace drama.Lindsey Lanza’s latest novel introduces us to Olivia and Gavin, two characters whose chemistry and professional tension drive a narrative that is both engaging and emotionally rich. Olivia, a talented professional navigating the complexities of her career, finds herself at odds—and eventually intrigued—by Gavin, the charismatic and enigmatic figure who challenges her in more ways than one.The author excels in creating a vibrant and authentic depiction of the modern workplace, filled with relatable challenges and triumphs. Olivia’s character is particularly well-drawn; her journey is one of growth, resilience, and discovering what she truly wants both in her career and personal life. Gavin, on the other hand, is the perfect blend of charm and mystery, making their interactions dynamic and filled with palpable tension.Lanza’s writing is sharp and witty, with dialogue that feels both natural and compelling. The pacing is well-executed, keeping readers hooked from the first page to the last. While the romance is a central element, the story also delves into important themes such as ambition, integrity, and the balance between personal and professional life.The only minor critique is that a few plot points felt somewhat predictable, but the strength of the characters and the engaging writing more than make up for it. Overall, “Not Safe For Work” is a delightful and heartfelt read that will appeal to fans of contemporary romance and anyone who enjoys a well-crafted story about love and career.Highly recommended for your next book club pick or a weekend binge-read!

Its always a little nerve wracking to start a second book by an author. Its hard not to wonder if the first one you loved by them was a fluke (or honestly even maybe your mood at the time if you're a moodreader), but I really wanted to get to this one and I'm SO SO glad I did. I will say this one has some potential triggers re: misogyny in the workplace but it allowed us to see our bada-- FMC come out of her shell and into her self, while being supported by the man who was absolutely SMITTEN with her.

Fake Dating, Women in Business, He Falls First (and so frickin hard). There is nothing I didn't eat up in this story.

Super cute fake dating romance, but something is holding it back from five stars and I can't place what it is. Loved Olivia and Gavin, but at times their personality things were just too much. Like Olivia has been told her whole life she's too much, too sparkly, too everything, which obviously shaped her self awareness and now she's sorta coming into this "so go find less" mindset, which is fantastic for her, but the way it was written just didn't feel very authentic. I dunno, it's hard to explain.
Also, Gabby, Gavin's little sister, hating Olivia from the start of their fake dating sat weird (view spoiler).
There's also a part where Olivia is "oh so tiny" she's wearing Gavin's sweats, which she has to roll multiple times and the hoodie goes down to her knees. But she's also got double ds. I dunno, it was a weird juxtaposition and placed so randomly through out it just stuck out as off.

All in all, I really did enjoy this book. There's some great representation of anxiety, physical illness, guilt, the stressors we put on ourselves. I'll definitely check out some other works by this author.

Thanks to the author for the arc!

5.0 out of 5 stars Did I Mention There’s a Cute Hedgehog
Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2024
Not Safe For Work by Lindsey Lanza is a workplace romance that follows Olivia and Gavin as they go from colleagues to fake dating to so much more. He’s been pining for her since he hired her over two years ago. She is under the impression that he hates her. So when he offers to help her land a big client she’s surprised. But whats even more shocking is when he suggests they fake date in order to keep their lecherous boss and the same persistent client from harassing her.

I inhaled this book like a drunken slice of pizza after a night of Mai Tais. Like literally did not leave my couch from start to finish. To say I was invested from the first moment is an understatement. I was captivated… by Lindsey’s writing, the characters and their backgrounds, and of course by Olivia and Gavin. Sometimes in a fake dating trope it feels like the characters go from 0-100 so fast it gives you whiplash but Lindsey has mastered the art, making the reader slowly fall for the characters at the same time they are figuring it out themselves. It was beautiful and gentle (although that doesn’t mean it’s lacking in spice - this is IMO Lindsey’s steamiest book yet and yall…. It’s gooood) and I read the entire thing with a smile on my face. It’s a love story that reminds you that you can never be too much for the right person and was an absolute delight to read.

While the love story was gorgeous I also really enjoyed Lindsey’s take on women in male dominated fields. Ive worked at places where people look to my male assistant for answers, assuming a woman couldn’t be in charge, and I really connected with Olivia’s struggles to make a name for herself in a world that will hire a women for diversity and fire them for their male counterparts indiscretions. Misogyny is alive and well and there were definitely times during NSFW that I simmered with rage for what Olivia, and most women, have gone through. Still, I don’t feel like this is often addressed in romance novels and I thought Lindsey handled it beautifully.

“I’m so sick of all these double standards. It feels like any decision I make is wrong, like just being a woman is wrong.”

Simply put this book is perfection and perhaps Lindsey’s best book yet!

This is Lindsey Lanza’s third book and I already loved her other books - would definitely recommend them! - so I was very excited to get an ARC for NSFW and I absolutely loved this book!

I love the fake dating trope and I wasn't disappointed here either.

I fell in love with Scottie (and Churro!) right from the start and I know you will too!

The character growth of Olivia was so good! Throughout the story she has learned to be herself and not what someone expects of her.

I also loved how Lindsey has written the world of work for a woman in a male dominated industry - which unfortunately still reflects reality.
