I've loved all of Jasmine Guillory's books and this one was no exception. One of my favorite movies growing up was Disney's Beauty and the Beast, so I loved all the little details Jasmine added to the story that paid homage to that movie while still making it her own. This was a wonderful grumpy-sunshine romance and a love letter to writing and publishing. I loved all the pep talks included in the book, and I wished I would have read this book when I was starting out. Definitely recommended for all aspiring writers and romance lovers!
