Official synopsis Publisher
DESPERATELY SEEKING FICTIONAL HERO FOR HAPPILY EVER AFTER
Gracie Landing’s life is a disaster, and for a romance novelist, that’s saying something. Broke, blocked, and freshly single, she drunkenly emails her high school crush in a fit of despair…only to spark the best banter she’s had in years.
As their flirty email friendship deepens, so does Gracie’s inspiration, and soon, Colin Yarmouth–grown up, gorgeous, and carrying some scars of his own–is unknowingly helping her finish her next book. But when real feelings collide with fiction, Gracie must decide what she’s willing to risk for the rewrite of her life.
A fast-paced romantic comedy filled with sharp humor, bookish charm, and a heroine you’ll want to text after wine, this debut is for fans of messy leads, second chances, and laugh-out-loud love stories that write themselves.
