Welcome to Litsy!

Day after day, Ephra Stone labours away on trashy romance novels he can't stand for his nightmarishly pink-obsessed publisher, Halwyn Tân. Ephra's trapped in a five-book deal from hell and it never seems to end; there's always one more book to go, one more trope to mangle. And the worst part of it all? Ephra himself has never been in love. Every time he catches a whiff of romance, plans mysteriously go awry, dates suddenly have to move away, and Ephra finds himself hopelessly alone again. It's as if the universe itself has been conspiring against his love life. That is until, one fateful day, a little birdy leads the way ... right into the arms of Ron Brook: sun-kissed god, possible millionaire, and guardian to the world's most intelligent not-a-dog. On paper, their relationship makes great material for Ephra's next romance novel. At least Ephra thinks so. And for once, he's actually enjoying his writing. But not everyone is on board with Ephra's new-found happiness, and Ephra might have to battle more than just some vapid publisher to keep hold of it.
