Publisher's summary

AN INSTANT USA TODAY BESTSELLER!

The hardest thing for a paranormal conspiracy theorist and a web series producer to believe in is finding love in this swoony debut romantic comedy.

Hallie Barrett's life has imploded after she's dumped by her hotshot ex, who also happens to be her coworker and the star of the online series she was producing. Without a new show to present for the company competition, she’ll be out of a job. But inspiration can come from the strangest places . . . like the most handsome guy she’s ever seen passionately discussing Bigfoot on a late-night docuseries.

Hayden Hargrove made a name for himself as a cryptid expert on his hit podcast, and is intrigued by the plucky blue-haired producer who offers him the opportunity to lead his own web show. When the production team sees that Hayden’s solo on-screen presence is bad enough to make a ghost blanch, Hallie jumps on camera too, hitting him (and his cryptids) with a healthy dose of skepticism—and enough chemistry to electrify their show to the top of the competition.

As Hayden and Hallie investigate the unknown, they unearth feelings for each other that shake their beliefs to the core. In their search for Mothman, aliens, and the truth, the most elusive discovery might just be learning to love again.

Critic reviews

"Love and Other Conspiracies was just the most charming read. I smiled from ear to ear the moment I cracked the book open until the very last page. This filled all the empty spaces in my nerdy heart. It cleared my skin and improved my credit rating. Inside me there are two wolves—one loves cryptozoology call-backs and one loves romance, and both are very pleased right now. You know when you get into a really good movie and you start yelling at the screen because you're so invested? I was yelling at this book, waiting for Hayden and Hallie to make a move on each other. I pretty much inhaled the entire book. It just made me so darn happy. I couldn't put it down, and I can't wait to read more of Mallory Marlowe.”—Ruby Dixon, USA Today bestselling author of Ice Planet Barbarians

“Delightfully offbeat and achingly tender, with a refreshing sense of humor that ties together the romantic and the absurd. This debut is a gem, and Mallory Marlowe is a standout new voice in romance.”—Rachel Lynn Solomon, New York Times bestselling author of Business or Pleasure

Love and Other Conspiracies might not convince you that cryptids are real, but it will definitely convince you of Mallory Marlowe’s talent. Fresh, funny, and full of sizzling chemistry—the only conspiracy here is how Mallory managed to write a book that has every single thing I’ve ever wanted in one story.”—Lana Ferguson, USA Today bestselling author of The Fake Mate

Love and the supernatural go hand in hand, and I’m here for it!

I absolutely LOVED this audiobook! It was fun, light-hearted, and humor was spot-on. The main characters were funny and incredibly relatable. Alex Finke is one of my favorite narrators and was a perfect fit for this book. If you’re into the paranormal and conspiracy theories, this is definitely one for you!

As a paranormal girlie *YEEEES*👏

The story was great, the references were fantastic, and the narrator was AMAZING. Mallory Harlowe did such a great job making me feel like I was reading a story from the real social media paranormal community. Both main characters were so funny, but in different ways. Hayden’s paranormal nerd humor was the best. Alex Finke could not have been a more perfect narrator, and she had PERFECT timing and cadence for the humor. She’s amazing. I highly recommend this book for anyone who loves YouTube ghost shows, or just loves a funny, sweet rom com!

Love 💗

4.5 stars ⭐️ Love and Other Conspiracies is so freaking good! Hayden loved the paranormal and runs a conspiracy theory podcast. Hallie (a producer) found the podcast and they teamed up to make show where Hayden would go to different places to hunt for ghosts and the Mothman and try to prove conspiracies to be correct. Hallie joins him when he flounders in the first episode, and as they film (Hallie is the nonbeliever) they fall in love. I loved being in this world! Hallie and Hayden were magical together! The romance was well paced, the story was interesting, the setting, and the conflict had depth. I enjoyed every part of this story!

TW: still dealing with past toxic relationship, workplace harassment by an ex partner, talk of caretaking for an ill parent, talk of death of a parent from a terminal illness, and talk of depression

This book is for all the girls who grew up wanting to date Fox Moulder. I fell in love with this book in the first chapter. Such a unique book! I love all of the conspiracy references. The main characters love story is such a pleasure to follow throughout the entire book. I can’t wait for Mallory Marlowe’s next book.
