They were cowriting literary darlings until they hit a plot hole that turned their lives upside down.
Three years ago, Katrina Freeling and Nathan Van Huysen were the brightest literary stars on the horizon, their cowritten book topping bestseller lists. But on the heels of their greatest success, they ended their partnership on bad terms, for reasons neither would divulge to the public. They haven't spoken since, and never planned to, except they have one final book due on contract.
Facing crossroads in their personal and professional lives, they're forced to reunite. The last thing they ever thought they'd do again is hole up in the tiny Florida town where they wrote their previous book, trying to finish a new manuscript quickly and painlessly. Working through the reasons they've hated each other for the past three years isn't easy, especially not while writing a romantic novel.
While passion and prose push them closer together in the Florida heat, Katrina and Nathan will learn that relationships, like writing, sometimes take a few rough drafts before they get it right.

Nora Stephens' life is books—she’s read them all—and she is not that type of heroine. Not the plucky one, not the laidback dream girl, and especially not the sweetheart. In fact, the only people Nora is a heroine for are her clients, for whom she lands enormous deals as a cutthroat literary agent, and her beloved little sister Libby. 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.

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.

Critic reviews
"Real, raw, and heartfelt."—USA Today
"The Roughest Draft is a book about books, and a breathtaking meditation on the ways in which fiction can be a space to expose and write large our must vulnerable truths...Complex and achingly romantic, The Roughest Draft feels as if it's a palimpsest for Wibberley and Siegemund-Broka's most deeply held beliefs about writing and each other—a profound collective story inked out for all of us to find ourselves on its pages."—Entertainment Weekly

Once I’m there, I realize our Bronx upbringing has left me unprepared for the world of old Southern money. Over 24 hours, I see scandal, threats, and lies. It’s a life I don’t relate to, a place I never want to belong. Even so, when the minister asks if anyone objects, I shock not only myself but also the beautiful bride when I stand up.

Twenty years ago Emma Michaels, Mackenzie Hayes, and Serena Stockton bonded over their New York City dreams.

Loved the narrators!
Chris sucks! He’s so selfish and inconsiderate! He doesn’t love Katerina and he never did! He only wanted her because of the money she could bring him as an agent/author relationship!
In the first part of this book Katrina is being so naive about Chris’s feelings toward her, he only wants her to write the book. He wants nothing more, his comment about “what about a new wife” is just such a strong thing to say! It’s a slap in the face, just because she doesn’t want to write anymore he wants to leave her? Wow! And she is feeding into this now, saying yes to writing the book with Nathan!
Chris is a tool, I hate him!
Nathan’s douchebag character Dean is spot on for Chris! He really is an asshat.
This is very hard to read, not in the sense that it’s not enjoyable, but that their tension is so strained! It’s just very palpable and cringy right now. And we still know nothing of what’s happened in the past! I’m feeling very much like I want to read ahead and see what happened, but I’m not going to do that, choosing to stay dumb to the meat of the story!
I like Harriet!
Okay, so no cheating happened between the mains! That’s good… but I’m definitely feeling that Nathan was probably falling in real, actual love with Katrina and maybe that is why his marriage ended? I just don’t understand why Kat wouldn’t reciprocate?!? They seemed to have good chemistry… I’ll keep reading it.
I hate Chris!
I’m now about 75-80% done with the book, and I’m at the cross roads! The 4 years earlier chapter of where the decision lies to change their lives forever, and it’s heart breaking the way Nathan is talking about his wife, nothing has happened between him and Kat, but the future of wanting it to happen is in the forefront of his thoughts! He’s breaking on the beach and I’m beaming along side him. I love this book. Working along side someone who really gets you in every possible way and feeling that chemistry with them is just an undeniable truth. It has to be hard when you’ve made commitments to someone else!
Wow, Kat’s 4 years ago was so sad, Nathan confessed his love but as characters, and Kat is scared of everything she could have and lose and so she chooses to end her relationship with her best friend.
Oh man, I hate the way she let him down! That’s kinda crappy and very immature I feel. Just have the conversation with this man that you love so much, I know it’s scary and your scared for the future, of it maybe not working out the way that you planned, but if you don’t take risks you can never move forward… and now it makes sense as to why she settled for Chris all those years ago!
We’re back in the presence and I’m so happy Chris had been kicked to the curb and they can now explore their feelings for each other! And I love these scenes, they are beautifully written, it’s spicy yet tame and I’m in to it! I don’t need dirty filthy talk in every single book I read, sometimes it’s nice to really be in the moment of what is really happening. And what is actually happening is two people finally acting on their feelings. I’m loving this.
So sad, but they needed to hash out the past and really talk out their feelings! I was scared when she was at the beach thinking she was going to just give up her craft and the man she loves for fear. But she prevailed and it was wonderful.
This book was super great, the only thing I have a problem with is it just a little pretentious. It’s filled with complicated rhetorics and fancy language that sometimes the story is lost to all the words! Also……. IF I HAVE TO READ THE WORD PROSE ONE MORE TIME!!!!!
Gah, I really enjoyed this book.

Boring
The narrators were great. I found the characters annoying and not very likable. The story was pretty dull and I found myself just slogging through it, I just wanted it to end.

Disappointed
At first, I loved this book. Couldn't put it down. Then as I got further into it, I became more impatient for the story to unfold. When it finally did, it was extremely anticlimactic. I'm so disappointed with how the authors wrapped up this book.

Hard to digest
I’m not sure how to put this but the quality of workmanship was great … I just *felt* nothing. I didn’t fall in love with the characters. It moved very slow, I kept waiting for the shift from shallow beginning to deep ending but it barely climaxed.

Super cute
This romance is super cute. It’s beautifully written. I enjoyed the flashbacks blended throughout the story. I read this in just over 24 hours, so I would say it’s a good one.

Gorgeous. Moving. Hopeful.
There is so much in this book that speaks directly to me. First of all, the characters starting out being so desperately angry at somebody who used to be such an integral part of their lives. The desire and aching to avoid that wound and yet the magnetic pull to make it right. Particularly powerful to me is Katrina's anxiety about not being enough, about not being significant. Her anxiety and fear echo so many of my own, and they are painted honestly and starkly on the page. But at its heart, this book is about mending love: mending our love for ourselves; for the work we're destined to do; for the friends we've hurt without meaning to; for the people we've loved dearly and cruelly wounded to protect ourselves. The prose is gorgeous, obviously. The characters are rich and real and beautiful and flawed. After all, this is a #wibbroka novel.

So-o-o slow and drawn out
The narrators were pleasant and effective and I’d enjoy hearing them again in a different novel. I skimmed along and barely finished this one. It was so slow, very little happened per hour of listening, and full of time-consuming flashbacks on their earlier partnership. I just wanted it to be over. I really don’t like audiobooks filled with lengthy flashbacks- so tediou in the audible format.
