Love Is an Open Book: A Fun and Flirty Friends-To-Lovers Summer Read Between a Bestselling Author and Her Best Friend Testing All the Romance Tropes -- Chandra Blumberg, Paperback

"Blumberg makes the will-they-won't-they dance believable and exciting with sexy banter and plenty of humor throughout." --Publishers Weekly Blurring the line between fiction and reality... Mia Brady never imagined her romance novels would become bestsellers, much less inspire a hit TV show. However, after signing a deal to write the final book of the series, she's struck by a serious case of writer's block. Her fans are clamoring for a passionate payoff, but Mia's own experience with heartbreak--and current lack of real-life romance--is getting in the way. Do friends who become lovers ever truly have a happy ending? Gavin Lane would like to think so. As Mia's ride-or-die BFF, he's been by her side through it all and convinced himself his crush on her is a thing of the past. He's not about to let his feelings ruin their friendship, and never will. But things get complicated when Mia pitches a bold idea to help save her career: testing out tried-and-true love story tropes...together. From workplace romance to fish-out-of-water, Mia and Gavin embark on a series of "experiments" to spark a little creativity--but they are not prepared for the flame that ignites between them. Does their friendship even stand a chance when pure fantasy suddenly becomes a little too real? For fans of:
