Romance novels save the day in award-winning author Gwyn Cready's fun and sensual take on modern-day love Can romance novels save the day Snobbish book critic Ellery Sharpe has made the strategic mistake of unleashing her scathing wit on the memoir of the world's leading romance publisher. As damage control, her boss at Vanity Place magazine assigns her the ultimate punishment: write an ode to romance novels, a genre she considers the literary equivalent of word search puzzles. To make matters worse, he hires her sexy ex, Axel Mackenzie, to shoot the photos. When it looks like true love hasn't a chance? Axel has reasons of his own for wanting to convince the strong-willed Ellery to paint romance in an attractive light. He decides to take his cue from Kiltlander, a much-adored romance, and starts secretly drawing lessons from the book's compelling hero. Because getting Ellery to fall for romance novels might be just the push she needs to believe people can change…even him. "Cready's writing is romantic and wickedly witty." —Rachel Gibson, New York Times Bestselling Author "Sexy second-chance romance." —RT Book Reviews, 4 stars "Delightfully original…an absolute crowd-pleaser." —Publishers Weekly STARRED REVIEW
