They were cowriting literary darlings until they hit a plot hole that turned their lives upside down.

Three years ago, Katrina Freeling and Nathan Van Huysen were the brightest literary stars on the horizon, their cowritten book topping bestseller lists. But on the heels of their greatest success, they ended their partnership on bad terms, for reasons neither would divulge to the public. They haven't spoken since, and never planned to, except they have one final book due on contract.

Facing crossroads in their personal and professional lives, they're forced to reunite. The last thing they ever thought they'd do again is hole up in the tiny Florida town where they wrote their previous book, trying to finish a new manuscript quickly and painlessly. Working through the reasons they've hated each other for the past three years isn't easy, especially not while writing a romantic novel.

While passion and prose push them closer together in the Florida heat, Katrina and Nathan will learn that relationships, like writing, sometimes take a few rough drafts before they get it right.

Great storyline, a little slow to start

I loved the story of this book but the start was a little slow. I love reading about writers and this storyline was super interesting!

Lovely

The narrators did a fantastic job! this book made me feel warm and fuzzy and have some self-realization as well. the storyline became a little predictable for me but it overall was a great read.

Hidden hard hitter

Was waaaaay deeper than the quick read (at first swipe) I thought it was.
Therapeutic isn't the right word....cathartic perhaps?
Hmmmm, I suggest you try it, then pick which word is better ssuited.
If you are wanting a ' time waster' I am not sure this is it.
This, this is underrated.

Disappointed

At first, I loved this book. Couldn't put it down. Then as I got further into it, I became more impatient for the story to unfold. When it finally did, it was extremely anticlimactic. I'm so disappointed with how the authors wrapped up this book.

Super cute

This romance is super cute. It’s beautifully written. I enjoyed the flashbacks blended throughout the story. I read this in just over 24 hours, so I would say it’s a good one.
