The Author Next Door

By Annika Stone

Bestselling mystery author Vivienne Sterling knows how to solve any puzzle-except the infuriating man writing textbooks at her favorite caf . But when a spilled coffee reveals that the alluring stranger is actually "Evelyn Rose," the most celebrated romance author in the country, Viv discovers some mysteries aren't meant to be solved alone.

Ethan Hayes has spent years hiding behind his female pen name, crafting love stories to escape his past. But when his carefully constructed world collides with a too-perceptive mystery writer, he finds himself facing his greatest fear: being truly seen.

As their professional lives intertwine and personal walls crumble, Viv and Ethan must decide if protecting their secrets is worth losing their chance at something real.

Sometimes the best love stories aren't the ones you write, but the ones you live.
