Augustus Everett is an acclaimed author of literary fiction. January Andrews writes bestselling romance. When she pens a happily ever after, he kills off his entire cast.
They’re polar opposites.
In fact, the only thing they have in common is that for the next three months, they’re living in neighboring beach houses, broke, and bogged down with writer’s block.
Until, one hazy evening, one thing leads to another and they strike a deal designed to force them out of their creative ruts: Augustus will spend the summer writing something happy, and January will pen the next Great American Novel. She’ll take him on field trips worthy of any rom-com montage, and he’ll take her to interview surviving members of a backwoods death cult (obviously). Everyone will finish a book and no one will fall in love. Really.

More from Emily Henry
First they were heartbroken strangers. Then they were roommates. Now, their summer adventures could lead to something more… It’s a funny story. From the perfect couple to exes, they’re now pretending to be together for one last vacation with their best friends. Faking it for one week can’t be that hard, right? Nora and Charlie are rivals, but this summer, their carefully crafted stories might just unravel when a series of coincidences push them together. Every summer for a decade, Poppy and Alex took a week-long vacation together. Can one more trip mend their broken friendship and maybe lead to something more?
