She writes happily-ever-afters and he writes angsty "deep" fiction. Surely, they have nothing in common. When family secrets send January to her late father's beach house in a tiny town in Michigan, she doesn't expect to recognize the next door neighbor from her college writing classes. They strike a deal to help each other out of writer's block, and, you guessed it, fall in love. But not without confronting past demons that have scarred them both deeply. So vulnerable and aware, as each of them realize that they're worthy of love and find it in one another. - Genay

“What do you get when you cross a disillusioned romance author with a Hemingway wannabe? A compulsively readable book where you kind of hope for your train to be delayed so you can spend a few more minutes with January and Gus. These two, saddled with writer’s block, make a pact to write the other’s genre. Literary snobbery is (rightfully) called out, and the two begin to navigate a friendship outside of writing as they explore the other’s process. Reader, I loved it.”
