Beach Read (Authentic verified) by Emily Henry

"In Beach Read, Augustus Everett is a celebrated author of serious literary fiction, while January Andrews writes popular romance novels with guaranteed happy endings. They couldn?t be more different?one embraces depth and despair, the other lives for sweet, feel-good tales. Yet, both are stuck in a creative slump and have spent the summer at neighboring beach houses, struggling with writer's block.

One evening, over drinks and mutual frustration, the two writers make an unlikely deal. Augustus will attempt to write a romance novel?something completely out of his comfort zone?and January will challenge herself to write a literary novel, something more complex and introspective than her usual fare. To help each other get inspired, they agree to swap their writing worlds: January will take Augustus on adventures designed to inspire a romantic story, while Augustus will expose her to darker, more serious subjects. But as the summer unfolds, sparks fly between them, and the line between their deal and something more begins to blur.

Beach Read is a delightful exploration of love, creativity, and the messiness of life, filled with humor, emotion, and the chemistry between two people who might just be perfect for each other?if they can stop denying it.
