Outside of work, I don’t have time for extra drama, which is why I’m perfectly happy with the no-strings arrangement I have with my bang buddy, Zac.Unfortunately, my old-school colleagues consider a single woman a risk and are dragging their feet to make me partner.

Zac’s also in a bind—his brother’s upcoming nuptials are filled with complications galore—so we strike a deal involving plus-one benefits.
