Sweet, romantic story about a deaf boss and his executive assistant. The workplace romance is kind of skimmed over but that may be my California paranoia of potential lawsuits. I am old enough, however, that when I began working as a secretary affairs between married and unmarried co-workers were very common (as was people smoking at their desks, inappropriate comments from bosses that they think is banter and I thought was dirty old men talk, and people drinking lots at lunch and after work - crazy days!). But this one, they kind of touch on it in the beginning and then drop it. I don't know if this is because it was edited out by the author. She did mention this is the new and improved version. The story about Benjamen's horrible childhood is very sad and compelling. Good book.
