Note To Don’t Fall For Your Tour Guide's "Rock Solid" Tower of Pisa. There are two types of planners and chaos-makers. I, Katie Crawford, am the former—color-coded, laminated, and ready for anything. So when my fiancé dumps me for being too Type A, I do the logical fly to Italy with my cougar aunt’s senior-swingers’-bus-tour to prove I can be spontaneous. The Loosen up. Be fun. Win my fiancé back. The Him. Matteo Monti—ridiculously gorgeous, charming, and smug. My Italian tour guide who treats life like a never-ending holiday. He calls me Checklist. I call him Walking Red Flag. Now, thanks to some highly suspicious booking errors, we’re sharing hotel rooms, stealing kisses under Venetian stars, and fighting over who's in control ( It’s me. Obviously). Tour Guide Rule #1: Don’t Catch Feelings. Ciao, I’m Matteo, and I have a system. Show tourists Italy, flex my forearms, avoid emotional entanglements. Simple, right? Until I meet her—Katie—stubborn, uptight, and impossible to resist. The more I push, the harder she pushes back. And now? I'm forgetting why I ever made rules at all. She's running from perfect. I'm hiding from forever. But on these winding Italian roads, we might just crash right into love. A spicy, laugh-out-loud romcom about desire, detours, and what happens when life refuses to follow the itinerary. Meghan Quinn fans will love this Opposites Attract, Vacation Fling, Road Trip romance with steamy Forced Proximity and Snarky Banter as Foreplay. Come escape to Italy and get your copy today!

MéLisa Ryun is our pen name, and we're a husband-wife duo who've been finishing each other's sentences (and steamy scenes) for nearly 30 years. We left the glitz of Hollywood for the glitter of Vegas. Despite calling Sin City home, we say what happens in Vegas should definitely not stay in Vegas-not when it comes to our scorching hot romcoms.We spend our days in a death match of yoga and joke-writing. It's like we're competing in a bizarre reality show where the winner gets to avoid stepping outside into Satan's armpit. We used to write for Hollywood and YouTube. Now we write books and social media posts. It's basically the same thing, except now our audience can read ¿ Maybe we'll trauma dump about our life in LA in a book someday. Or maybe we'll just keep writing about fictional people with better lives than ours.We write steamy open-door romcoms that'll make your grandma blush and your girlfriends wink knowingly. Our characters? So real you'll swear they've been eavesdropping on your life, with banter as finely honed as a cover model's abs and sparks that'll melt your e-reader. Our mission? To write sizzling chemistry, door-kicking-open steam, and enough beloved tropes to complete a Pinterest board. And the best part? Guaranteed satisfying happily ever after, every time.. Snark. Swoon. Spice!
