Believe it or not, fellow book lovers, but owning a bookstore isn't everyone's dream [cough: Drew] and some people don't even like to read [gasp! Drew!]. With more than a little grief and stubbornness, family drama, career angst, and meddling elders, Drew Young is stuck in a story she never wanted to pick up but can't in good conscience put down. She has a great supportive friend and bookstore help, but she's still feeling stuck and hopeless. Enter hot, swoony romance author Jasper Williams. Can his outlook on life and sizzling romantic attention help Drew get out of her head and into the story she deserves? Can her enthusiastic love for her Colorado mountain town and a life lived outside of books inspire and ground him beyond the scope of his next manuscript? Romance readers know the answers: yes and yes. But not without some third act drama and plot twists along the way.

What sets this love story apart? A beautiful Colorado area that is explored rather than just used as set dressing, a main character who is allowed to be real and complex, fun pop culture references and banter, an incorrigible group of meddling old aunties, spot-on behind-the-scenes bookstore details, steamy chemistry with a sweet-hearted man, and the satisfying awakening of the joy of reading in a self-proclaimed book hater.
