My Only Boy by Rosa Rankin-Gee

Elle is a successful PR executive at a fast-growing tech company in London, whose carefully controlled life begins to fracture after a workplace tragedy exposes the human cost of the business she represents. While navigating mounting pressure at work and unrest in the city around her, Elle meets Ed at a house party and falls into an intense, unexpected romance. Having previously dated only women, she is unsettled by the relationship and what it reveals about her identity, desires, and future. As the romance deepens, Elle must decide what she is willing to sacrifice - love, security, or ambition - as both her personal life and the wider world move toward crisis.
