Spotlight and Giveaway: How Freaking Romantic
We're excited to celebrate the publication of Emily Harding's first solo rom-com, How Freaking Romantic! This enemies-to-lovers story is sure to heat up your summer (not that we need more actual heat, but the kind from books is always good). Thanks to Gallery, we have THREE copies for some lucky readers!
Beatrice Nilsson is what some might call “feisty” (those who love her) and others “combative” (those who don’t). But no matter what you call her, she’s a good lawyer and an even better friend. So when the marriage of her two closest pals ends in divorce, Bea picks a side and storms the office of attorney Nathan Asher to tell him exactly what he can do with his alimony petition. Unfortunately, what should end with a few choice words soon spirals into uncharted territory when Nate shows up at her NYU Law office a few days later as a newly-minted adjunct professor—and her new colleague.
Bea still hates Nathan, of course. But between weekly meetings and networking events, walks around Washington Square Park and late-night pizza, that hate begins to feel a lot like something else. And as uncomfortable truths emerge about the divorce that started it all, she might have to choose between her friends’ happily ever after and her own for the very first time.

"Inject this cynical angry woman into my veins! How Freaking Romantic is truly for the ragey girls among us, and I loved every second of it. Emily Harding writes the scrappiest, wittiest, most heartfelt characters to root for, and we’re all the luckier for it."
-- Ali Rosen, bestselling author of Recipe for Second Chances
