The true love experiment

"Sparks fly when a romance novelist and a documentary filmmaker join forces to craft the perfect Hollywood love story -- but only if they can keep the chemistry between them from taking the whole thing off script. Felicity "Fizzy" Chen is lost. Sure, she's got an incredible career as a beloved romance novelist with a slew of bestsellers under her belt. But when she's asked to give a commencement address, it hits her: she hasn't been practicing what she's preached. "Live your life like a romance novel"? Fizzy hasn't ever really been in love. Lust? Definitely. But the swoon-worthy, can't-stop- thinking-about-him, all-encompassing feeling she describes in her books? Nope. Never. Worse still, the optimism she's spent her career encouraging in readers is starting to feel like a lie. Connor Prince, documentary filmmaker and single father, loves his work because it allows him to live near his daughter. But when his profit-minded boss orders him to create a reality TV show, Connor is out of his element and concerned for his professional reputation. Desperate to find a hook that will set his project apart from the myriad of dating shows already on the air, he finds the perfect solution after an encounter with his ex- wife's favorite author. What if he could show the queen of romance herself falling head over heels for all the world to see? Fizzy quickly picks up on his disdain for her genre and gives him a hard pass...unless he agrees to cast the contestants according to her list of demands. To her surprise, he accepts her intentionally impossible terms. She decides to take it as an opportunity to rediscover the joy they've both been missing and inadvertently proves to him that there is more to crafting a love story than meets the eye. Starring in Connor's show is Fizzy's chance to finally step into the role of romance heroine. But when the lights come up and all eyes are on her, it turns out her happily ever after might just lie behind the camera"-- Jacket flap.
