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?
