Love, Literally: An Emily Strauss Story

By D. Lovell

Love, Literally by D Lovell

Bestselling romance author Emily Strauss is a genius at writing love-and a certified disaster at living it.

After a public meltdown at a book signing goes viral, Emily's publisher gives her an ultimatum: date twelve men in twelve weeks, or kiss her next deal goodbye. What follows is a whirlwind of awkward dates, literary chaos, and the constant, conflicting advice of two unhinged inner voices. While in the middle of all that chaos, Emily stumbles into an unexpected connection with a man who might just be brave enough to see the real, unscripted Emily.

Told with biting humor, messy heart, and a main character who weaponizes self-deprecation like a shield, Love, Literally is a story about vulnerability and what happens when you finally start experiencing love IRL instead of through fiction.

Can Emily write her own happy ending, or is she destined to be the awkward subplot in her own life?

Perfect for fans of Tia Williams, Talia Hibbert, Emily Henry, and anyone who's ever been told they were "too much."

Note: This book contains mature themes, such as grief, loss, and sexual content. It is recommended for readers 18+.
