The premise of this book is that two women, a showrunner and her assistant, fall in love. The plot deals thoroughly with the power differential and the age difference (the showrunner is 41 and the assistant is 27) between them. They have some near kisses throughout the book, but they don't actually kiss or have sex until close to the end, when the assistant is about to transition to a different job in which the showrunner will no longer be her boss. A director, who is a colleague of the showrunner, attempts to persuade the assistant into giving him a handjob or a blowjob, citing a rumor that the assistant has no qualms with sleeping her way to the top. The assistant tells the showrunner what happened, and the showrunner leads a campaign to expose the director's misconduct, leading other women in the film industry who had also been harassed by him to do the same. The director does not retaliate or respond in any way.
