About the Book
When aspiring romcom author Sarah agrees to fake-date her romance-book-hating coworker Ben, she doesn't expect fireworks.
Book Synopsis
Aspiring author Sarah has just landed a dream job at the Romance Library. She should be happy. Instead, thanks to relentless writer's block and the news that her cheating ex is bringing his girlfriend to her brother's wedding in Spain, Sarah is reeling. Going alone isn't an option. She needs a fake date. Fast.
The last person she expects to volunteer is Ben-the infuriatingly handsome playboy and romance-book-hating property developer Sarah's been forced to work with to open the library's idyllic readers' retreat.
Sarah would rather stick pins in her eyes than spend time with a man who disrespects her favourite genre, but she has no choice. And it's only for one weekend -how bad could it be?
Except when Ben impresses her family, then charms his way into Sarah's good books and her knickers, the words suddenly spill onto the page faster than she can say 'only one bed' and he becomes her unexpected muse.
But with Ben's time in town running out, will their story end in heartbreak? Or can they write their own happily ever after?

Review Quotes
'I LOVED the whole story. Everything about it was wonderful. I loved the characters, the banter, the Romance Library, Sunshine Bay and the cameos from previous characters. I particularly loved all the mentions of Bookstagram and all the things that book nerds do! I have thoroughly enjoyed the whole of The Romance Library series, but I actually think that this book is my absolute favourite one.' Bookstagrammer, Mrs LJ Gibbs
