Floored

Chrissie Harrison

Hannah and Drew work in the same office.
Hannah and Drew use the same elevator.
Hannah and Drew certainly aren’t looking for love.
They haven’t even met.
Yet something is happening…

Amiable TV production accountant Drew turned his back on dating after the death of his fiancée, an incident which cemented his longstanding elevatophobia. When Drew moves home and workplace, hoping for a fresh start, he hears a voice in the office lift telling him to “be careful”.
Is it his fevered imagination, the ghost of his fiancée, or someone playing a cruel prank? Quickly, he becomes desperate, foolish… and unexpectedly smitten.

Cute, sparky but shy Hannah wouldn’t mind finding romance, but keeps choosing the wrong boyfriends. Her innate social anxiety, deepened by bad experiences with a preying boss, is a huge barrier to dating anyone new.
To expose her boss’ antics, she must be lucky and smart. However, talking to a sweet but hapless co-worker isn’t the answer… is it?
Slowly, a relationship blossoms alongside a shared determination to bring justice to their workplace.

Yet, they can’t possibly risk meeting in person… can they?

About the Author

Chrissie Harrison

I’m an incurable romantic, and a sucker for great humour. I’ve been writing for many years, and all the stories contain love, humour, or both – I simply can’t keep these elements out of my work.

I have a soft spot for stories with strong women and nerdy or hapless guys – and sometimes pathos or bittersweet vibes. I like the connection between my protagonists to be more than physical; a way for them to bond and help solve each other’s problems. I’m also keen to shine a light on mental health issues, especially anxiety and neurodiversity, as these are close to my heart. My novels are dual POV stories, sweet rather than spicy, and often put a twist on genre staples whilst being centred on relatable relationships and situations.

I’m inspired by the big and small screen as well as books, and have a soft spot for Richard Curtis’ romcoms, timeless TV comedy like The Good Life and Blackadder, less well-known feelgood films and romances (Always, Forget Paris, Roxanne), and newer, brilliantly observed or scripted shows (Colin From Accounts, Dinosaur). Books which make me laugh include Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine, The Rosie Project, Cat Lady, and The Hating Game.

Outside of writing, I enjoy photography, great scenery, a nice peaceful train ride, delicious coffee and cake, and catching up with old friends.
