I drove my car to work tonight with no issues. When I got off work my car wouldn't turn over. The key will turn, all of my lights come on with no dimming, but the car doesn't even click when trying to turn it over. Any ideas what this issue is?

Check the battery and connections if okay-start checking the starter, starter relay, transmission range switch and ignition switch. No crank at all/nothing/nada when key is engage to starting position

Could be the starter, starter relay, clutch switch/park and neutral switch/transmission position switch and ignition switch assuming the battery and connections are good. Note:If it doesn't apply disregard.
