While this wasn’t my favorite Rachel Lynn Solomon book I still enjoyed every single second of it! 

Chandler Cohen has ghostwritten books for a few minor celebrities and not seeing her own name on the books she writes is taking a toll on her. After one of the women she ghostwrote for doesn’t even recognize her name at a signing, Chandler goes off to the bar for a drink. There she runs into a super funny and ridiculously cute man. The two go out to dinner, go for a walk, and it eventually leads back to his hotel room. Unfortunately for Chandler, this is the worst sex of her life and the man seems to think the exact opposite. After he falls asleep she hightails it out of there. She doesn’t even do one night stands, and this clearly was a sign she should never have one again.

The next day her agent calls saying there’s an actor looking for a ghostwriter for his memoir and they want to meet Chandler that day. His name is Finn Walsh and he was on a big werewolf teen drama set in college. Chandler agrees to meet the actor and his agent, only to realize it’s the same guy as last night. After some pleading on his end and a promise to forget the prior night happened, Chandler agrees to travel with Finn to his comic con appearances so she can get to know him.

After they start talking, Chandler accidentally lets it slip to Finn that the night they shared was not as great as he thought. After a joke that she should give him lessons, Finn asks if she will do just that for him. Chandler knows it’s a bad idea, but the positives seem to outweigh the negatives…
