28: Ali Roberts: Author of The Unseen, a Reverse Kidnapping RomCom

from Love Letters and Books · host Love Letters and Books

I spoke with author Ali Roberts about her debut novel, The Unseen. This is a sweet, spicy, and very funny book about a reverse kidnapping romantic comedy where a fiercely responsible big-sister “accidentally on purpose” kidnaps the man who’s been quietly devoted to her for years (cue unhinged plans, scorching banter, and a hero who’s dangerous to everyone… except her). We dig into why “safe but unhinged and has already done the inner work” makes the perfect MMC, how comedy softens darker edges, and the scene-stealing therapist Dr. Alfie, star of Ali’s upcoming workplace romance, After Hours. If you love great banter, electric chemistry, and a side of spice, you’ll love getting to know Ali (your new favorite author). Ali also shares a tender love letter to her younger self, encouraging her to choose curiosity over fear. If you crave ’90s romcoms with bite, big feels, and a guaranteed swoony HEA, press play—then add The Unseen (and After Hours) to your TBR.
