I’m fake dating a romance writer. All he asked in return was that I promise not to fall for him. Whoops. Zane Rosey knows just about all there is about romance. Our town isn’t very big, so I’ve seen him in action with women at the bar. He knows when to say the right thing, where to put his hands, when to kiss your neck or make you laugh. Asking him to fake date me until the guy I've crushed on for years finally notices me was a no brainer. I even laughed when he asked me not to fall for him. Yeah, okay, don’t fall for the playboy romance writer. Check. I blame myself for the rest of our story. I knew what faking a relationship would mean, but I never actually thought about what it would be like when we put the plan in motion. When he’d have to hold my hand, or place his at the small of my back. When he’d kiss me, or hold me in his arms dancing. When we’d end up sharing a room. It’s all for show. I know that. But somewhere in there I know that the guy he is with me, isn’t the one he puts on display for everyone else. The man he is with me is the one making me question every choice in my life. My biggest question yet, am I making him question his? Tropes for Write About You include small town romance, fake dating romance, slow burn romance, and he falls first romance.

Fake dating my sworn enemy to make my ex so jealous he can't see straight? Worth it. Silas and I agree on one thing, and one thing only: my ruthless, heartless, narcissistic jerk of an ex-fiance needs to be taken down a notch. So we do what anyone would do: we pretend to be a couple. Even though Silas and I are polar opposites. Silas is a loud, cheerful, over the top showboat. He’s his hometown’s golden boy, the Marine who came back to rescue kittens from trees and walk old ladies across the street. And me? I'm the awkward new girl who freezes up around strangers and can’t make small talk to save my life. It shouldn’t work. We can barely have a conversation without arguing. There's no way we should be friends, let alone dating, except... Everyone believes it. Especially my ex. Now I'm having way too many real fantasies about the man who gets on my last nerve. My fake boyfriend is starting to feel a whole lot like a real one. The kisses feel real. The way he protects me feels real. The night we spend together in a hotel bed feels very real. This was supposed to be fake, but I think I might have fooled myself most of all. The One Month Boyfriend is the first book in the Wildwood Society series, and can be read as a total standalone. It's for fans of high heat enemies-to-lovers romantic comedies, and features two enemies who fake date for revenge, a quirky, charming small town, a former military cinnamon roll hero, a grumpy heroine who's charmed despite herself, anxiety and PTSD representation, and plenty of steamy scene.

“Genre fiction series are the bread and butter of mid-list writers. For many they make the difference between a writing dream and a writing career.” Zoe York/Ainsley Booth, USA Today and New York Times bestselling author For the first time ever in print, Zoe York breaks down how she plans a series—something she has done ten times over.

The sexy single dad next door is also my best friend’s brother. And now I’m playing nanny for his son over the summer. It’s a good thing I’ve never been into grumpy men because Simon Stone holds the record. If I were smart, I’d have never taken the job for Simon. But desperate times call for desperate measures, and well, I’d have taken any job that distracted me from my personal life. Plus, it meant not going home to an empty house, and that was really all I ever wanted. What I didn’t plan for, however, was for Simon’s son to tell his football team that his father and I were dating or for Simon to need me to go with it once his own mother found out. Let’s not forget the time Simon kissed me one night in a dark bedroom, or when he watched me through my bedroom window as I... well, I didn’t plan for a lot of things. Falling for a man who swears he’ll never love again is at the top of the list. Most of all, I didn’t plan for how life would be at the end of the summer when I went back to my empty house and my lonely life. All it took was one summer for me to fall for Simon Stone, but as it seems, if I’m not careful, that might be all I ever get. Tropes for More Than Write include single dad romance, grumpy sunshine romance, nanny romance, best friends' brother romance, neighbors, small town romance, and steamy romance.

The sexiest romance writer on earth ... that's how most of the world views my newest client. As for me, I view him as the only guy to ever stand me up on a date. I loathe him. I don’t care if he’s still charming, if his smile still makes my heart patter faster, or if my body thinks we should give him another chance. It’s not going to happen. Hero Quinn is my client, and spending two weeks with him on his book tour to save his reputation is more than enough for me. I’m a smart woman and I'm no stranger to temptation. Which is exactly why my career saving plan is to set him up on a string of blind dates that I, his marketing manager guru, will share with his following. At the end of the two weeks, he will pick one woman to see again and viola, he’s out of my hair and I can move on. Of course, plans never go the way we want them to. Between the time we’re forced to spend together and that kiss where he pressed me against the wall, the lines begin to blur. And boy, do they ever. Dating clients goes against my rules, but it doesn't change the fact that when this is all over, I still wish I could be the one he picks to see again. Tropes for The Write One include small town romance, enemies to lovers romance, slow burn romance, second chance romance, and forced proximity romance.
