Best-selling romance author Stu Summers expects fawning
praise and flirtatious smiles from his female fans, but when his editor
at New York's Little Brown Pelican informs Stu that his latest
manuscript is a poor imitation of a Nicholas Sparks novel, Stu's
carefully crafted career begins to unravel. Stu has one week to deliver a
complete rewrite of Lap Dog Love that meets his editor's
demanding standards.
And he would ... if he could ... but
Stu can't write—at least not romance novels.
For years
Stu has paid a "Holy Ghost writer" on the Outer Banks of
North Carolina to craft his manuscripts, but now Hattie May Hall has
lost that loving feeling and feels God calling her to write paranormal
Amish thrillers with an evangelical message woven into "End
Times" sci-fi. With a looming deadline and no hope of learning how
to write a novel in two weeks, Stu finds himself falling for Kate
Winston, a women's self defense products rep selling stun guns, pepper
spray, mace defense spray, personal alarms, and TASERS.
Kate
instantly becomes Stu's source of inspiration but is his sudden
affection for her real or, like everything else about Stu, ... fake? />
As the clock ticks closer to midnight, an unlikely pair of
hearts collide, providing a "shocking" climax to a love story
that was never meant to be and yet ... is.
Summers' Love
will make you laugh, but keep a tissue close by. ~ Eva Marie
Everson, Best-selling & Award-winning Author (DISCLAIMER:
Eva Marie Everson received zero, nada, bupkis for saying nice things
about this book.)
Fun and clever, with a new twist every
few pages that I didn't see coming. ~ Christy award-winning
author, Ann Tatlock (DISCLAIMER: Ann Tatlock also received
nada, zilch, for saying nice things about Stu.).
Written
for the General Market (G) (I): Contains little or no; sexual
dialogue or situations (okay, maybe Stu does allow his gaze to linger on
her chest a second too long), violence, or strong language. May also
contain some content of an inspirational nature and a wee bit of
humor.

Oh, Big News! Any day now Stu expects to hear from
Bollywood regarding the film adaptation of Summers' Love.Then
again, he's been waiting any day for three years, so there's that. :)
