Beach Read

Augustus Everett is an acclaimed author of literary fiction. January Andrews writes bestselling romance. When she pens a happily ever after, he kills off his entire cast. Theyre polar opposites. In fact, the only thing they have in common is that for the next three months, theyre living in neighboring beach houses, broke, and bogged down with writers block.

Until, one hazy evening, one thing leads to another and they strike a deal designed to force them out of their creative ruts: Augustus will spend the summer writing something happy, and January will pen the next Great American Novel. Shell take him on field trips worthy of any rom-com montage, and hell take her to interview surviving members of a backwoods death cult (obviously). Everyone will finish a book and no one will fall in love. Really.
