Bestselling author Dani Baldwin escapes to the Oregon coast expecting peace, quiet, and maybe a little inspiration. What she doesn’t expect? A ladies’ man for a neighbor with a talent for getting under her skin.

Mason Stuart, local heartbreaker and graphic designer, has one rule—no serious relationships. Whether it’s with the tourists who breeze through town or the women who call Cascade Harbor home, all attachments are a resounding no. But when the sassy writer next door turns out to be exactly what he needs to boost his career, he makes a tiny, little, not-at-all-dangerous decision… to pretend hes someone else entirely.

As stolen glances turn into late-night banter and undeniable sparks, Dani finds herself falling for the town—and the charming artist who lives there. But when Mason’s ruse comes to light, she’ll have to decide if their love story is worth a rewrite… or if some stories are better left unfinished.

Pillow Talk meets Gilmore Girls in this delightful summer romance about a bestselling romantasy writer seeking her own happy ending and the infuriatingly charming flirt determined to win her heart.
