"Finally, my God! Elizabeth Stephens is the blerd of my dreams! This novel is a fizzy, fast-talking takedown of celebrity culture, fandom, and the fine print of heroism--with enough heat to melt vibranium. Stephens delivers an absolutely swoony, steamy love letter to the power of reinvention." --Nikki Payne, author of Pride and Protest

"The book we need, the writer we need, the hero we need, the new series we absolutely need! All Superheroes Need PR is unique, and fantastical, and funny, and so sexy it's absolutely on fire! It brought me places where I desperately needed to go, it gave me everything I wanted and more, and it healed the part of me that has been sad since the Beast turned into a human. I want a million more novels set in this universe! Elizabeth Stephens is a jaw dropping talent, and I'm in awe of her mind!" --Ali Hazelwood, New York Times bestselling author

"You are not prepared for Roland and Vanessa. Bro sees her and is like 'I am obsessed and mad about it, but also what if I kidnapped you? Oh, that's not socially acceptable? I guess I'll contractually bind you to be Lois Lane to my (grouchy, flame-filled, violent) Superman! Also I'll call you my wife, real fast.' I loved this book!" --Katee Robert, New York Times bestselling author

"Awkward charm and unhinged possessiveness is a marriage built to last and no couple does it better than Roland and Vanessa in All Superheroes Need PR." --Natalie Ashee, author of Sucker

"What a fun, fun book! I'm so excited to read more in this series. Superhero romances exist but it's a painfully underserved genre and this was such a fun idea. Great world building too that reminded me a bit of The Boys with superheroes almost being celebrities. Also so great to see diversity and non-white leads. Will definitely be picking up this author's next book!" --Kimberly Lemming, USA Today bestselling author

"Elizabeth Stephens did her big one with this delightful romp where she turns fake dating on its head with a villain who decides he'd rather be a good guy and the PR professional tasked with changing his image. This book is one of my favorite reads of the year! It has adventure and romance, all wrapped up in a spicy package. This page turner will have you giggling and swooning with every page. Stephens doesn't hold back on the charm or the angst as Roland aka the Wyvern and Vanessa find their way to Happy Every After. I loved this book!" --Kenya Goree-Bell, Amazon bestselling author
