When a desperate author hires an escort to inspire her next book and the chemistry turns real, she must decide if their love story is a plot twist or a happily-ever-after. . She wanted to write a bestseller. She wasn''t ready for the plot twist. Being an indie romance author was supposed to be a dream come true. But after publishing umpteen books, I still haven"™t "made it" and now I"™m just waiting for the dark cloak of insignificance to completely snuff out my career. I decide to roll the dice on a marketing guru who swears he can yank me out of obscurity. But after a frantic search for "book boyfriend material" and an unexpected bar encounter, I accidentally blow my entire budget on an escort. Forrest is a charming single dad by day and hotter-than-sin escort by night. But before I can fire him and ask for a refund, he reminds me how I got here in the first place"¦ I"™m in desperate need of inspiration. He might be a walking red flag, but Forrest is ready to be my muse, which means spending the next three months helping me "research" my next bestseller. (Hey, I"™m manifesting here. ) Our game plan? Act out all the romance novel tropes that make a bingeable love story: brooding billionaires, masked men, cowboys in small towns, and even swoon-worthy green flags. Forrest plays all the book boyfriend parts perfectly. So perfectly I"™m starting to wonder if his feelings for me might be real, or if he"™s just earning his paycheck. I"™m not sure if I"™m trying to write a love story or live one out. After all, there is no such thing as happily ever after with a professional escort"¦right?
