Love Interest

From USA TODAY bestselling author, Chloe Liese, a loathe-to-love story about a kindhearted librarian who has spent life playing the supporting role yet finds her bold inner heroine when forced to work with an antagonistic, brooding writer, leading her to discover she's more than broken character—she's become the love interest. Helen Holloway loves books, but she’s read enough to realize she’s the side character in her own life—the supportive best friend, the fun aunt, the reliable librarian with the perfect recommendation. Only when she escapes into her beloved stories does Helen get to be the bold, feisty heroine. Then she meets Sam Cartwright. From the arrogant thriller writer’s first infuriating email, Sam demonstrates he has no problem making demands of her library yet no interest in supporting it. As their bickering emails escalate, Helen breaks character and pledges Sam’s support to the library’s fundraiser. When Sam finds out, he demands repayment—he’ll support the fundraiser if Helen helps him work through writer’s block and plot his next bestseller. The more time she spends with Sam, the more Helen discovers a tender man beneath his villainous persona and starts to question the supporting role she’s always played. For the first time in her life, Helen is the heroine of her own story. And she might even be the love interest…
