Hate turns to heat when a literary grump meets his deadline savior.
My assignment is simple: trek to a remote English cottage and convince Nathaniel Foster to let me work with him.
Too bad he’s a complete and utter jerk.
Who slams the door in a poor stranger’s face, leaving them shivering out in the snow?! So much for a warm welcome…
Nathaniel is God’s gift to readers everywhere. My publisher is desperate for his next book, which in turn makes me desperate to help him complete it. So what if he doesn’t want to play nice? I have no choice but to live and work with him in this snow-covered cottage, suffering under his piercing blue stare until it feels like I might combust.
Our heated exchanges by day give way to torturous tension at night. I can’t clock out from his all-consuming presence. I can’t escape my unwanted feelings. When one of our arguments nearly ends in an angry kiss, I worry the writing is on the wall.
But I can do this. I can clench my teeth, ball my fists, and focus on this damn book. If I can just keep the fiction and fantasy between the pages and not between the sheets, I’ll be the hero of the publishing world.
So pick up your pen, Nathaniel—and please, please, stop looking at me like that.

Summer comes from a family full of physicians but that’s not who she is, and she has been trying to find her own place in the world. Working at InkWell publications is a dream come true but she still has to prove herself.
She is sent overseas to help an author get back in his writing grove because the world is anxiously waiting for the next book in his super popular series. Summer knows she has we work cut out for her and working with Nate is going to be a challenge. He’s already pushed away three other editors and Summer is just another one he’ll have to deal with.
However, Summer is different, and when circumstances cause her to have to stay in his cottage during her time in the English town, things start to change. Nate actually likes having her around and the fact that there is no service or wifi, they spend a lot of quality time together.
As they learn things about each other they learn things about themselves. I love the growth between them as well as individually. Summer embraces her love of the literary world and finally proves her worth. Nate realizes that his words were always in him, he just needed someone to believe in him.
Their relationship happens organically and I felt their connection. It’s a nice slow burn romance with building tension that is just waiting to explode. There isn’t much drama which is nice but there are still decisions that Summer needs to make, and when she and Nate finally acknowledge that they want each other , they have to figure out what it all means when an ocean separates them.
I love how the story plays out and I love the fact that their relationship felt real. It wasn’t an instant happily ever after and I enjoyed the journey. The ending put a smile on my face and warmed my heart!
