Katie Holt- Not in My Book

Popular romance Bookstagrammer @ReadinRomance makes her authorial debut with NOT IN MY BOOK (Alcove Press). This hotly anticipated romance is The Hating Game meets Beach Read.  In this sexy and hilarious enemies-to-lovers writers’ romance, Rosie, an idealistic and passionate Peruvian American, leaves her Tennessee hometown to pursue her dream of making it in New York as a writer. But her plan is derailed when she ends up in class with her archnemesis and ex-crush, Aiden Huntington—an obnoxious, surly, and gorgeous literary fiction writer who doesn’t have much patience for the romance genre or for Rosie.  Rosie and Aiden regularly go to verbal battle in workshop until their professor reaches her breaking point. She allows them to stay in her class on one condition: they must cowrite a novel that blends their genres. The reluctant writing duo can’t help but put pieces of themselves into their accidentally steamy novel, and their manuscriptin-progress provides an outlet for them to confess their feelings—and explore their attraction toward each other.  When Rosie and Aiden find themselves competing against each other for a potentially career-changing opportunity, the flames of old rivalry reignite, and their once-in-a-lifetime love story is once again at risk of being shelved—unless they can find a way to end the book on their own terms.  This book is especially suited for readers who will enjoy the banter of two rival writers, slow-burn chemistry, Taylor Swift, and lots of bookish culture all rolled into one epic love story ABOUT THE AUTHOR Katie Holt is a New York City resident but a Tennessee native. She studied English with a concentration in creative writing at NYU and fought with every professor to prove that romance novels were worthy of their time. She’s a Nora Ephron fanatic, Swiftie, and warm chocolate chip enthusiast. Not in My Book is her first novel.
