Welcome to Litsy!

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Alex Aster comes her adult debut novel Summer in the City�a swoony, fast-paced rom-com set in New York City in which a screenwriter and a sexy tech CEO go from lovers to enemies and back to lovers again� Twenty-seven-year-old screenwriter Elle has the chance of a lifetime to write a big-budget movie set in New York City. The only problem? She�s had writer�s block for months, and her screenplay is due at the end of the summer. In a desperate attempt at inspiration, Elle ends up back in the city she swore she would never return to, in an apartment she could never afford (floor-to-ceiling windows, skyline views, and a new coffee shop to haunt included). It�s the perfect place to write her screenplay�until she realizes her new neighbor is tech �Billionaire Bachelor� Parker Warren, her stairwell hookup from two years ago. It�s been a lovers-to-enemies situation ever since. When seeing him again turns into a full night of hate-fueled writing, Elle realizes her enemy/twisted muse might just be the key to finishing her screenplay... if she can stand being around her polar opposite. She writes anonymously, and he�s on the cover of every business magazine. He frequents fancy red carpeted events, and she doesn�t like leaving her emotional support five block radius. One summer. One wall apart. He needs to fake a buzzy relationship during his company�s precarious acquisition. She needs to write a movie around a list of NYC locations. Both need a break from their unrelenting schedules, and a chance to rediscover the skyscraper glimmering, pizza crusted, sunlit charms of the city. Summers always end, and so will this agreement. It�s all pretend. Promise. Until it isn�t.
