Publisher's summary

Love enters the chat in this hilarious, heartfelt rom-com by Audie Award-winning, New York Times best-selling author Kylie Scott!

Romance author Riley Cooper always dreamed of living by the water. But within a day of landing in the charming seaside town of Port Stewart to work on her latest book, she's getting calls and texts for some dude on her new number. Weird ones. Sad ones. Sexy ones. Ones that make her want to meet him. For curiosity's sake...if nothing else.

After years of being on-again, off-again with his high school sweetheart, all Connor wants is to move on with his life. If only everyone in Port Stewart would let him. What he needs is to be seen with someone else. So when fate puts him in the path of the new girl in town who got his old number, faking it together seems like the perfect solution.

Spending time with the gorgeous former prom king might be great research for Riley’s romance writing...if only she can keep her feelings in check. But the more she gets to know him, the harder she’s falling. Can their serendipitous meeting turn into something real and true?

Cute quick story.
This story did not make me want to fast forward to the end just to get to the conclusion.

Great Read! 🩷

Loved the story along with the amazing narration! Great descriptions and humor. The inner dialogue was interesting and funny. The back & forth convos were very witty. The town is a great backdrop. Listened to it in one day. A fun romp!

Listened to it straight through

The frame of text messages brings the reader in nicely to the town. I love Riley’s dead pan responses.

Entertaining and unique

Loved the small town, close knit community of people and, of course, the love story.

Really enjoyed it

I liked this book a lot. Female character was good with words and open and fearless. Male character was broody, closed off and had difficulty expressing his feelings. How story was evolving was very interesting. And the ending was so swoon worthy.

Amazing

This book was well written and hilarious! I got plenty of stares wearing my headphones and laughing my ass off! Blue was a great character with just the right amount of snark. Connor was vulnerable without coming off as wimpy. I highly recommend checking this book out!
