While You Were Seething: A Novel

About this book

Daisy Emmett and famous romance author Caleb Miller have shared a mutual loathing since their college days, and absolutely nothing has changed. When Caleb finds himself in the middle of a major PR disaster, Daisy reluctantly agrees to help him navigate the fallout. However, she quickly realizes she has bitten off more than she can chew when they are forced into the confined space of a truck for a grueling, cross-country book tour. The situation spirals from difficult to chaotic when the public begins mistaking Daisy for the mysterious, non-existent woman to whom Caleb dedicates all his novels. To save his reputation, the pair must commit to a high-stakes game of fake dating, pretending Daisy is the long-lost love of his life. As they move from one stop to the next, the required public displays of affection and forced proximity begin to blur the lines between their bitter rivalry and something far more electric. Caught in a whirlwind of banter and escalating tension, Daisy and Caleb struggle to maintain the charade. What begins as a professional obligation quickly transforms into a test of their true feelings, forcing them to confront whether their long-standing animosity is actually a mask for a much deeper connection.
