The best love stories happen off-screen...
It's a perfect beginning: upbeat screenwriting student is mentored by genius-but-grumpy indie filmmaker, they argue over movies and share one secret kiss. But then comes the gut punch Sutton Spencer didn't expect... Xavier Duval skips town and ghosts her completely, right after savagely critiquing her screenplay.
Fast-forward ten years, and Sutton is now a movie exec vying for a VP position. To prove herself, she offers to travel to a remote shoot and oversee Xavier's new sci-fi blockbuster, which has gone way over budget. This time, she's in charge. And Xavier? He's as talented, gruff and hot as she remembers—and still convinced there are no happy-ever-afters in real life.
Xavier knows he messed up with Sutton, but he had his reasons. Now, seeing the way she combines sweetness with nerves of steel to get his production back on track, he almost wishes he believed in romance. Instead, they agree to an on-set fling, one that will fade to black when shooting stops.
On paper, it's that simple. But life, and love, has a way of going wildly off script...
From showing up to glowing up, the characters in Afterglow Books are on the path to leading their best lives and finding sizzling romance along the way. Don't miss any of these other fun titles...

A movie director and his former student reignite their past romance years later in this multidimensional contemporary from Erwin (the Titans of Tech series). Xavier Ducal and Sutton Spencer shared a single kiss while he was still her film professor, after which Xavier apparently ghosted her. Now, 10 years later, Sutton works as a production executive for Monument Studios and she’s assigned to oversee Xavier’s next project, The Quantum Wraith. She’s thrilled at the power reversal now that she’s the one in charge. But while on set in Arizona, Xavier clears up their past misunderstanding and they agree to act on their mutual attraction while keeping it secret from their coworkers and Xavier’s young nephew who lives with him. Both expect it to be just a physical thing, but when they catch feelings, they must decide how they want their relationship to proceed after production ends. Erwin fully fleshes out her protagonists and makes their past miscommunication as believable as their present rekindling. This is a treat. -

It's not personal, it's just business. This is what Sutton Spencer tells herself upon arriving at the set of The Quantum Wraith to inform director Xavier Duval that the studio is shutting his picture down. However, Sutton quickly discovers that not only do Xavier and his crew have nothing to do with the financial irregularities plaguing the production, but the movie they are making could be a lucrative new franchise for the studio. So if Sutton agrees to remain on set and keep money matters on track, this could be a win-win for both parties. Given their past history, working with Xavier is not without its risks, especially since Xavier is proving to be just as irresistibly sexy today as he was 10 years ago when he crushed Sutton's romantic dreams of a happily-ever-after. Erwin deftly deploys fascinating details about the movie-making business in the engaging story line of her contemporary romance, while the snappy banter and smoldering sexual sparks she creates between her perfectly cast protagonists bring to mind Howard Hawks' classic Hollywood rom-coms.COPYRIGHT(2025) Booklist, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
