Claire is a CEO of her own publishing company and has a dedicated team out to empower women... But her own love life is... bare. She broke up with her ten-year boyfriend because he's a total man-child, preferring parties and video games to work, and hates her for "wearing the pants" in the relationship. Forced into dating again, she survives disaster after disaster in speed dating, online dating, and outright blind dating. Then her mother commented: why not make it a column in your magazine: Thirty first dates in thirty days? As she survives even more dating duds, she knew there is one guy she wanted... Alex, a CEO that invested in her magazine... but there is no mixing business with pleasure... It makes for a VERY awkward business later... But the dating duds are wearing her down... Maybe Alex can be a change of pace...
Good mix of tropes, combining "no mixing work and pleasure" with "everyone but you". Add the man-child ex, and dating disasters, and you got a good story. I think the "jealousy" angle could have been handled better though.
