Synopsis

Achingly romantic, The Roughest Draft by Emily Wibberley and Austin Siegemund-Broka is an intimate will-they-won't-they love story.

'This novel is that rare piece of writing that needs no editing, haunts your sleep, and leaves you wishing it was longer when you turn the last page.' - Jodi Picoult, author of Wish You Were Here

Sometimes the best love stories start with The Roughest Draft . . .


Three years ago, Katrina Freeling and Nathan Van Huysen were the brightest literary stars on the horizon, their cowritten book topping bestseller lists. But on the heels of their greatest success, they ended their partnership on bad terms. They haven't spoken since, and never planned to, except they have one final book due on contract.

Forced to reunite they hole up in a tiny Florida town, trying to finish a new manuscript quickly and painlessly. Working through the reasons they've hated each other for the past three years isn't easy, especially not while writing a romantic novel.

While passion and prose push them closer together in the Florida heat, Katrina and Nathan will learn that relationships, like writing, sometimes take a few rough drafts before they get it right.

'I love, love, LOVED this book . . . contemporary romance at its best!' – Lyssa Kay Adams, author of Isn’t It Bromantic?

This novel is that rare piece of writing that needs no editing, haunts your sleep, and leaves you wishing it was longer when you turn the last page.
Reading Wibberley and Siegemund-Broka’s prose is like sliding into the crisp sheets of a luxury hotel bed.
Achingly romantic.
