TV writer Annie McDermott has finally landed her dream job. The nightmare part: she has to share an office with her nemesis.
Arrogant (and distractingly handsome) Art Sullivan - who Annie hasn't seen since their college days - was supposed to be Hollywood's Next Big Thing. So what's he doing in a soap opera writers' room, apart from pushing Annie's buttons?
Love Scene is charming, full of the most eclectic group of characters, and a rom-com full of depth and heart.
Soon though, Annie's got a bigger distraction: someone's trying to sabotage the show. But she's not going to let her dream go without a fight. Even if it means asking for Art's help to stop them.
After Annie and Art find themselves sharing a very hot kiss at the office (which they swear will never happen again), things get even more complicated. But if they can quit arguing long enough to finally admit they make a good team, there might just be another plot twist ahead.
It isn't overly cheesy, the characters feel like people you've known all your life, and people you can't help but cheer for as the story unfolds.
Love Scene is an enemies-to-lovers rom-com you'll be glued to from the get-go, and the perfect companion if you're heading away this summer.
Books like Love Scene are good for your soul, and this is a novel that'll not only warm your heart but leave you smiling long after you finish reading.
