Ships in the Night

By: Fyfe, Bell

It's San Francisco's hottest ticket-'Ships in the Night'.

Twice a month, standing room only crowds fill North Beach's City Bookmark to witness the battle for the fan-fiction crown. Wielding double entendres and scandalous scenarios instead of swords, contestants spar with scenes from famous novels...and Abigail Reilly is the secret star of the show.

Introverted, fat, and camera-shy, aspiring writer Abby has hatched a plan with her limelight-loving best friend Steph: she'll come up with the outrageous, ribald take on a classic every other week and Steph will perform it onstage under her name. It's a win-win scenario-until the Friday night mega-bestselling author Isaac Ferrer makes a surprise appearance. He's smitten with her stories, and Abby's enchanted by him, enough to wonder if maybe a lyrical romance is what's been missing from her life.

Just one problem: Isaac thinks it's Steph who bewitched him with her words...and Steph is clearly infatuated with him as well. Unaware of Abby's crush, she begs Abby to ghostwrite the seduction of a lifetime, even as Abby falls further and further for Issac.

What's a girl to do when she's the only one who can give the two most important people in her life their happily ever after-even if it breaks her heart?
