Overview

Heat rises and sparks fly when a love-cynic author and a suspiciously handsome intimacy coordinator are thrown together to write new steamy sex scenes for a TV series based on her hit novel in this deliciously fun debut romance. Tash was thrilled when the dramatic rights to her surprise-hit feminist novel were snapped up. But now a big-shot director has taken charge and he wants 'the dirty version' of her book. Despite her best efforts to stall, the studio assigns Tash its golden-boy intimacy coordinator to help her add spice to the script. Tash resents Caleb from the first word of the first sentence they write together but as the story continues, the romantic tension spills off the page. Just when Tash feels it's all coming together, the whole plot falls apart. Can she find a narrative that saves her show and her own love story, or are both lost forever? 'This debut really stood out for me...Bold, smart, with a heroine I loved and lots of interesting things to say about sex, art and entertainment.' Beth O'Leary, bestselling author of The Flat Share and The Road Trip

Author Information

Turner Gable Kahn grew up in the extra-hold-hairspray ribbon of sunshine between the Everglades and the Atlantic's best beach. Her higher education happened along the banks of the Schuylkill, and then the Hudson. She commuted endlessly across the East River in the blood, sweat and tears of a design career, before leaving her heart on Victoria Harbor's dance floors and the South China Sea's cliff hikes. She now writes in the bright heat near the Singapore Strait during the school year; in the summer she greets the sunset with her family, on a back deck overlooking the Puget Sound.
