In this first directorial outing for Wicked from industry scion Holly Randall, newly-independent graphic designer Alison Rey is not happy that she has to compete for a book cover design gig against Seth Gamble, her old college boyfriend's roommate and a "brainless male bimbo walking frat boy hard-on." Although Gamble remembers Rey as "cool and talented," he is goaded by assistant Jane Wilde to beat Rey to the job "and put her out of business." But their illicit office set-to is noted by publisher Bridgette B., and she tells Gamble to keep it in his pants—and later tells corporate attorney Derrick Pierce that she may fire Gamble for his indiscretion, a statement overheard by Wilde, who runs off to warn him before Pierce and B. violate a few HR policies on their own.

Gamble patches things up with Rey, but he still has no ideas for the book cover. Wilde has her own idea: Steal Rey's design. She sneaks the prototype out of Rey's home while Rey's assistant Eliza Ibarra is distracted with Lucas Frost. Rey, desperate, cobbles together a recreation of her own design, and Gamble is impressed by the same design stolen by Wilde. "I was inspired," she tells Gamble. When Gamble makes his presentation, including the selling points that were on Rey's computer, Rey spots it and smells a rat. Rey asks for more time, and gets it, but she confronts Gamble before she leaves. Gamble, chastened, fires Wilde and goes to Rey to apologize. She accepts his apology—again—and they get together to violate some in-house HR regs just for good measure.

A pleasant, light story with good acting and sex performances.
