The Book Proposal — K.J. Micciche

DESPERATELY SEEKING FICTIONAL HERO FOR HAPPILY EVER AFTER

Gracie Landing's life is a disaster, and for a romance novelist, that's saying something. Broke, blocked, and freshly single, she drunkenly emails her high school crush in a fit of despair…only to spark the best banter she's had in years.

As their flirty email friendship deepens, so does Gracie's inspiration, and soon, Colin Yarmouth -- grown up, gorgeous, and carrying some scars of his own -- is unknowingly helping her finish her next book. But when real feelings collide with fiction, Gracie must decide what she's willing to risk for the rewrite of her life.

A fast-paced romantic comedy filled with sharp humor, bookish charm, and a heroine you'll want to text after wine, this debut is for fans of messy leads, second chances, and laugh-out-loud love stories that write themselves.
