January's trying to come to terms with the past and she might just build a future while doing it.įrom now on, it was the ugly truth or nothing.īeach Read is a standalone contemporary that melded women's fiction and romance together perfectly. When her next door neighbor turns out to be college rival and crush Augustus Everett, she winds up getting in a pseudo competition about who can write the best book in the other's genre. Her boyfriend dumps her and with her writing career in danger, January takes off to Michigan to come to terms with who she thought her father was and try to get her life back on track. When her father dies and a big secret is revealed, she can't manage to see only the glow in life.
Her mother's scares with cancer taught her to hide her fears while the way her parent's loving and romantic relationship taught her that outpouring happiness and love made life glow. January has lived her life with an open heart and rose colored glasses. Everyone will finish a book and no one will fall in love. She'll take him on field trips worthy of any rom-com montage, and he'll take her to interview surviving members of a backwoods death cult (obviously). 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. In fact, the only thing they have in common is that for the next three months, they're living in neighboring beach houses, broke, and bogged down with writer's block. When she pens a happily ever after, he kills off his entire cast.
