Unromance - by Erin Connor (Paperback)

About the Book

"Sawyer Greene knows romance. She's a bestselling author of the genre--or she was, until her ex left her with nothing but writer's block and a bitter, broken heart. But when she gets stuck in the elevator with a handsome stranger, she sees their meet cute for what it is: just a one-night stand. It might have worked, too, if they could stop running into each other. Actor Mason West sees Sawyer's reappearance in his life as a sign. Obviously, they're meant to cure each other. Him of the hopeless romanticism that only ends in heartbreak--and tabloid trainwrecks--and Sawyer of her writer's block. Their agreement is simple: Sawyer will be Mason's perfect rom-com love interest, showering him with every romance trick in the book so he never falls for them again. Only rules? 1. No (more) sex, and 2. No matter how swoony the circumstances, absolutely no falling in love"--

Book Synopsis

Beach Read fans will love this steamy romcom where a recently dumped TV heartthrob enlists a jaded romance novelist to throw him off romance for good. . . "a romcom lover's dream of a book" (Ava Wilder, author of How to Fake It in Hollywood).

Sawyer Greene knows romance. She's a bestselling author of the genre--or she was, until her ex left her with nothing but writer's block and a broken heart. When she gets stuck in the elevator with a handsome stranger, she sees their meet cute for what it is: just a one-night stand . . . but then they keep running into each other.

Actor Mason West sees this as a sign. They're meant to help each other--Sawyer with her writer's block, and Mason with his tabloid trainwrecks. So they strike up a simple deal to keep each other on track: no more sex, and absolutely no falling in love--under any circumstances.

It's a foolproof plan-until Sawyer and Mason realize some plots can't be stopped--and that they might be hurtling towards a happy ending...

Erin has been telling herself stories for as long as she can remember, and once she realized she could write them down and share them with others, there was no going back. She loves writing about messy women, platonic and romantic love, and happily ever afters.

Erin lives in the PNW with her spouse, two large dogs, two lazy cats, and more houseplants than she can count. When not exploring fictional worlds, she enjoys hiking, cooking, emo nostalgia, and slowly but surely actualizing her lifelong goal of becoming a forest witch.
