Publisher's summary
Opposites attract in this charming debut romantic comedy, perfect for fans of Beach Read.
Event planner Kate Sweet is famous for creating the perfect happily-ever-after moment for her clients’ dream weddings. So how is it that her best friend has roped her into planning a best-selling horror writer’s book-launch extravaganza? But the second Kate meets - or rather, accidentally maims - the drop-dead-hot Drake Matthews, her well-ordered life quickly transforms into an absolute nightmare.
Drake Matthews is tired of the spotlight and tired of his reputation as the Knight of Nightmares. He's really a nice guy! But he’s not prepared for Kate, a fearless agent of chaos in steel-tipped stilettos, or for that sweet sting of attraction he feels for her. She’s inspiring him to take his writing in a whole new direction - one that no one expects. Because now Kate and Drake are changing up the rules, and this plot twist might just surprise everyone...including themselves.

After 10 years as a flight attendant, Ava Greene is poised to hang up her wings and finally put down roots.

But then, she discovers that former pilot Jack Stone - the absurdly gorgeous, ridiculously cocky man she's held a secret grudge against for year - is on her flight. And he has the nerve to flirt with her, as if he doesn't remember the role he played in the most humiliating night of her life. Good thing she never has to see him again after they land....

Savannah Cade’s dreams are coming true. The Claire Donovan, editor-in-chief of the most successful romance publishing company in the country, has requested to see the manuscript Savannah’s been secretly writing. The only problem: she’s an editor for a different company, and their philosophy is only highbrow works are worth printing and romance should be reserved for the lowest level of Dante’s inferno. But when Savannah drops her manuscript during a staff meeting and nearly exposes herself to the whole company, she has no choice but to hide the manuscript in a hidden room.

Franny Doyle is having the worst day. She’s been laid off from her (admittedly mediocre) job, the subway doors ripped her favorite silk dress to ruins, and now she’s flashed her unmentionables to half of lower Manhattan. On the plus side, a dashing stranger came to her rescue with his (Gucci!) suit jacket. On the not-so-plus side, he can’t get away from her fast enough. Worse yet? Someone posted their (entirely not) meet-cute online. Suddenly Franny and her knight-in-couture, Hayes Montgomery III, are the newest social media sensation, and all of New York is shipping #SubwayQTs.

He's a billionaire heir. A grump supreme. Hater of people. Bigger hater of peopling with people. And my new fake boyfriend. "Emotionally unavailable" doesn’t even begin to describe Hayes Rutherford. He has more defenses than a nuclear missile silo. And he’s the ultimate catch of the century. At least, according to his bank statement. My job’s simple: Keep all interested ladies away from the walled-off heir, by pretending to be his one true love. But you know what they say about fake-dating a billionaire: It’s all fun and games, until the scandals start.

Which is why she agrees to go to Sunshine Falls, North Carolina, for the month of August when Libby begs her for a sisters’ trip away.

Story
Hi, my name is Bree Camden, and I’m hopelessly in love with my best friend and star quarterback Nathan Donelson (so is half of America, judging by the tabloids and how much the guy dates). The first step is admitting it, right? Except, I can never admit it to him because he clearly doesn’t see me that way, and the last thing I want is for things to get weird between us. Nothing but good old-fashioned no-touching-the-sexiest-man-alive platonic friendship for us! Everything is exactly how I like it! Yes. Good. (I’m not crying; I’m just peeling an onion.)

Bartender Abigail McNerny is the gal-pal, the wing-woman, the she-BFF. Abby is convinced no one on earth could ever entice her into a romantic relationship...except that one guy she’s loved since preschool.

Story
Literary editor Antonia Harper had it all - the career, the man, the future. That was then. Now Antonia is jobless, alone, and at a crossroads. What better time to travel the world? A solo honeymoon on the Emerald Isle will be like hitting the reset button. No distractions, no drama. Aiden Byrnes may be a literature professor, but words fail him when he meets the woman staying in the cottage next door. Tully Cross is meant to be a sleepy little village, and he's meant to be on a working holiday - not a vacation, and most definitely not with his beautiful neighbor.

Rhiannon Hunter may have revolutionized romance in the digital world, but in real life she only swipes right on her career - and the occasional hookup. The cynical dating app creator controls her love life with a few key rules: nude pics are by invitation only; if someone stands you up, block them with extreme prejudice; protect your heart. Only there aren't any rules to govern her attraction to her newest match, former pro-football player Samson Lima. The sexy and seemingly sweet hunk woos her one magical night...and disappears.

Rex “TW” McMurtry’s perpetual singlehood wouldn’t bother him so much if all his ex-girlfriends didn’t keep marrying the very next person they dated, especially when so many of those grooms are his closest friends. He may be a pro-football defensive end for the Chicago Squalls, but the press only wants to talk about how he’s always a groomsman and never a groom. Bartender Abigail McNerny is the gal-pal, the wing-woman, the she-BFF. Abby is convinced no one on earth could ever entice her into a romantic relationship...except that one guy she’s loved since preschool.

To make some quick cash, she signs up to perform singing telegrams. Her first customer is a gorgeous, cocky Manhattan trust-funder if she ever laid eyes on one.

With her tattered shoes and bargain-bin clothes, her life has never been full of glamour. So when a rich and charismatic man takes interest, she doesn't fool herself into thinking their encounter is anything more than a one-night stand. Months later, she's kicking herself for not getting his phone number. Or his last name. She's given up hope of seeing him ever again.

I struggled to finish it. I never got to connect to the characters so it made it hard to care about what happened to them. It's a cute story and has all the elements of a book I would love but it just wasn't it. I needed more. It's hard to even put it into words. I just needed more.

This is her debut novel, and I really enjoyed it!
This is Dylan Newton’s debut novel, and I really enjoyed it!
Kate Sweet is such a quirky, lovable, real character. I could definitely relate to her. Drake Matthews was a dreamy horror writer having an existential crisis and writers block, all related to his writing - what he writes and what he wants to write. Meeting Kate helped him trigger a writing spree in a new genre, and sets in motion some interesting events connected to that, while she was planning an event for the launch of his next new horror release and connected movie.
They are a great match and the chemistry between them, the hilarious story and all of the fantastic shenanigans that arise are just a perfect mix. I can’t wait to read more from her - a great new author find with a promising career!
Two new-to-me narrators (a feat in a dozen years with Audible! Seems there's a whole new batch of narrators coming up recently), that were also very good, and great for these characters.

Sigh…I found a new favorite
Personally, this book checked so many boxes for me. I absolutely love the characters & their dynamics, the story & the narrators!! I cannot believe it hasn’t received more attention!
I am thrilled I found this gem. I cannot tell you what it was like to hear some thoughtful & creative writing. I’ve read so many romance genre books and so many are incredibly cheesy, smuty (personal preference) &/or repetitive. I feel like there’s some romance MadLib random authors use or they’re all using the same worn out thesaurus.
But I love the clever and creative details peppered throughout the story. The way the author paints a scene makes the story come alive. I found I was so easily envisioning each scene and got wrapped up in the story over & over. I savored every bit of the book.
I also love the literary references & and although it was not a heavy read, it was just right for me. It’s not a bunch a fluff!
I found myself grinning for most of the story & definitely shed a few tears. I also needed to rewind many times to either ensure I didn’t miss anything or to soak up that moment one more time! For me this is perfect.
The way things tied back together, perfect! I don’t usually go back & reread much unless it’s a favorite- this is a new favorite & I REALLY hope there’s MANY more to come from Dylan Newton (and these narrators too…sigh)

When Kate’s book publisher and best friend, Imani Lewis, looks to her to step in and plan famous horror author, Drake Matthews, book launch party and she must do it in 30 days. Reluctantly she agrees especially when she hears that the book has already been bought to be made into a movie and the producer sits on the board that can get her a very big and important award.
So what happened when the “Queen of Happily Ever After” meets the“Knight of Nightmares”? Well .. sparks fly, some is accidentally maimed, someone ends up in an awkward position and Drake is not liking Kate’s book launch party ideas. Finally, Kate convinces Drake that she can give him a great book launch without turning the event into a circus. To find out what happens to these 2 people guess you will just have to read How Sweet It Is.
The is a cute but predicable rom-com story waiting to become a Hallmark movie. Kate is sweet and Drake is a little bit of a hunky dork. So why only 3 stars .. this was an audiobook and the narrators were just okay .. especially the male narrator .. his reading fell flat so it lost ½ star.
I see that in May author Dylan Newton has a new book coming out All Fired Up, it is the story of Imani Lewis and Zander Matthews (Drake’s brother) .. while at times I found Imani a little irritating I just might have to read it.
