The Author and the Cover Model

By Charm O'Ryan

The Author and The Cover Model is a cleverly written, humorous, parody of the romance genre. It exposes not only the wrongs in writing romance, but all the rights in love too A female villain who makes a harpy from hell look like an angel, a handsome, somewhat arrogant hero, and a heroine who believes Fate has made a grave mistake when she finds 'Mr. Right' in the wrong man, are only a few reasons those who enjoy romance should read this novel. Fun, quick-witted dialog, and steamy love scenes rise from the ink-splattered pages. It is also a memorable portrayal of a woman's search for everlasting companionship -- and the fairy tale ending she writes about in her stories. If you are an avid, paperback romance reader, The Author and The Cover Model is the book for you. It explores the world you love like no other story you've ever read before.

Customer Reviews

A wonderful parody that'll keep you giggling

This book will take you on a romantic journey through the world of romance writing (the heroine is a romance writer), but with a humorous and unique twist. The author's characters are drawn by funny plot points, carefully crafted clichés, and standard romantic elements. But that's what causes the tension between KaLoni and the hero, Zach. From the moment they meet, their lives become too much like the stories KaLoni writes! Right down to moonlight nights, robins singing in the morning, a hero with enough hubris to staunch any flow of purple prose, and, well, a villain who obviously can't read between the lines. An enjoyable book!
