OverviewSylvie considers herself a team player at her artificial intelligence (AI) company, but when she uncovers her colleagues’ illegal activities, pleasing everyone becomes impossible. Torn about what to do, she confides in her personal trainer, who’s dismayed not only by the choices she faces but also by her advocacy of AI, a technology he considers dangerous. Despite the barbs the two trade at the gym, they are drawn to each other. If only Sylvie weren’t continually summoned to the Miami estate of her mother and stepfather, where illness, death, a disputed will, and the rekindled ashes of an old flame swirl into a disaster that follows Sylvie back to Boston, bringing harm to her and those she cares about.

Table of ContentsReviews“Just in time for the debate over the dangers of AI, Joan Cohen brings us a corporate drama turned thriller, layered with sexual misconduct, everyday misogyny, and the power of friendship and romance.” —Ellen Bravo, activist and author of Again and Again and Standing Up: Tales of Struggle “From page one we’re off and running with Joan Cohen’s dive into the corporate world of AIfuture, a company rushing headlong into the terrifying world of artificial intelligence. As heroine Sylvie negotiates the dicey maneuvers of the men in her life––those at the helm of AIfuture as well as the increasingly manic behavior of her ex––she discovers that sometimes a woman’s trickiest opponent can be herself. Self-deprecating, wry, and laugh-out-loud funny, Sylvie is easy to root for. Thank you, Joan Cohen, for another fast-paced, terrific read!” —Maria Black, winner of the 2021 Pushcart Prize “An indecisive woman finds inner strength—and romance—in this wise and witty tale.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review “Just in time for the debate over the dangers of AI, Joan Cohen brings us a corporate drama turned thriller, layered with sexual misconduct, everyday misogyny, and the power of friendship and romance.” —Ellen Bravo, activist and author of Again and Again and Standing Up: Tales of Struggle “From page one we’re off and running with Joan Cohen’s dive into the corporate world of AIfuture, a company rushing headlong into the terrifying world of artificial intelligence.
