"Melissa Ferguson delivers yet another sparkling, laugh-out-loud romance!" —RaeAnne Thayne, New York Times bestselling author

She's written dozens of smash-hit romance novels. Too bad no one knows it.

Aspiring author Bryony Page attends her first writers conference bursting with optimism and ready to sell her manuscript with long-shot dreams of raising awareness for The Bridge, her grandmother's financially struggling organization where she teaches ESL full-time. But after a disastrous pitch session, she stumbles into correcting another author's work in a last-ditch attempt to make a good impression with the agent. And she, as it turns out, is spot on.

No one is more surprised than Bryony when the agent offers her the opportunity to be a ghostwriter for Amelia Benedict, popular rom-com novelist. Bryony agrees on one condition: she'll write books for this vain, demanding woman just as long as Jack Sterling, literary agent of the legendary Foundry Literary Agency, works to sell her own book too.

What nobody predicted, however, was that Bryony's books would turn Amelia Benedict into the Amelia Benedict, household name and bestselling author with millions of copies sold around the world.

And just like that, the Foundry Agency can't let her go.

But on a personal note, Jack is realizing he can't either.

Don't miss the delightful romantic comedy, The Perfect Rom-Com by Melissa Ferguson, a story of two seemingly mismatched hearts brought together by fate, proving that sometimes, the perfect love story is hidden in the pages of a well-loved book.

" . . . clever and adorable . . . brimming with warm humor and a lot of heart . . . " —Rachel Linden, bestselling author of The Magic of Lemon Drop Pie

"I loved this book!" —Sheila Roberts, USA TODAY bestselling author of The Best Life Book Club

"I couldn't put this book down!" —Suzanne Allain, author of Mr. Malcolm's List

      Aspiring writer Bryony has two dreams--to get published and to save the nonprofit where she teaches ESL classes to immigrants and refugees. She's penned a book about the history of the organization and hopes that by selling it she can raise the money to keep the center afloat. Notoriously difficult literary agent Jack presents her with an unexpected opportunity to ghostwrite for a big-name rom-com author. Bryony agrees, under the condition that Jack will also take on her own book. Over time, their professional relationship blossoms into a close friendship, but Bryony becomes increasingly frustrated writing for someone else while her own novel remains unpublished and the threat to her beloved community center looms ever closer. When Bryony attends a promotional tour for the obnoxious author she ghostwrites for, Jack tags along, and their bond turns from platonic to romantic. However, Jack has been harboring secrets that jeopardize their newfound relationship and Bryony's dreams. VERDICT Ferguson's (How To Plot a Payback) charming slow-burn rom-com is full of fun banter, lovable characters, community and family connections, and heart.--Migdalia Jimenez
