Lost

Working for a book publisher can be a frustrating task for JT, who is trying to promote some of his favorite works to his boss.

However, when the stress gets to him, and a lovely stranger who also claims to be a fan of the same website invites him to a celebration...JT wonders if that is exactly the kind of stress reliever he needs.
