Write Place, Write Time
Paige’s mom wants her to follow in her footsteps – she owns a big conglomerate company but Paige just wants to be a writer. When Joan makes it clear she wants to sell Atlas Publishing because of their lack of clients and subsequent income, Paige sees it as an opportunity to give it one last go, except this time she’ll write under a pseudonym, so no one – not even Atlas Publishing’s last hope Daniel – will know that it’s her family who poses the threat in the first place.
