"Tessa Bailey is the queen of rom-coms. Long may she reign!" - Julie Murphy, #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Merry Little Meet Cute "The tenderness, vulnerability and heat I am always guaranteed with a Tessa Bailey book are the reasons she is one of my all-time favorite authors." - Sally Thorne "Tessa Bailey writes pure magic." - Alexis Daria "One of the genre's very best." - Kate Clayborn "Tessa Bailey's writing stands out in all the right sexy ways." - Buzzfeed "Bailey writes banter and rom-com scenarios with aplomb, but for those who like their romance on the spicier side, she's also the Michelangelo of dirty talk. She wields filth like Da Vinci does a paintbrush, and there's a lot to be said for an author who can fill such exchanges with all the requisite heat, enthusiastic consent, and yes, even humor, of such a scenario without veering into corny territory." - Entertainment Weekly
