Her Again? (Paperback)

Dak Kramer thought he'd finally stabilized after the one breakup he still can't joke about. Moved on. Rebooted.

Until she moves in across the hall-and starts dating his boss.

Now Dak's trapped in a daily loop of forced politeness and accidental run-ins that feel way too personal. His best friends treat it like live entertainment, and the talking bird in the lobby narrates the awkwardness like a couples counselor from hell.

Dak's plan is simple: keep his head down, avoid her, act normal.

It implodes the moment the banter starts. That's also when his oblivious boss assigns Dak and his ex to the same work project.

Resign? No. Spiral? Probably.

Close proximity turns into eye contact that lasts a beat too long. They've got history that won't stay buried. And the office is more than happy to turn Dak's discomfort into sport.

He thought he was over her.

He thought wrong.

Her Again? is a sharp, darkly funny tale about awkward encounters, workplace pressure, and what happens when you're trying to move on-and the past moves in across the hall.

Michael P. Clutton has been creating stories and art since he could hold a pencil. What began with cartoons and short fiction grew into a lifelong pursuit of finding the absurd, the heartfelt, and the quietly human in every idea he touches.

Known for his dry humor and wry take on life, Clutton blends imagination, wit, and emotional honesty across genres-from comedy and sci-fi to horror, literary fiction, and even the occasional tongue-in-cheek how-to guide. His work invites readers to laugh, think, and occasionally wince in recognition.

He lives in Southwest Florida with his wife, where inspiration comes as easily as the humidity. When he's not writing, he's probably drawing, fishing, or pretending his poker face still works.
