About this eBook
“Charming . . . an endearing gem” in the Southern Comfort romance series from the author of Two Family Home and Home Sweet Home (All About Romance).
Helen Lee has a top-secret dream: to publish a romance novel. There’s just one problem, and her most recent rejection letter doesn’t mince words: Helen can’t write a love scene to save her life. As Head of Reference at Willow Springs, Kentucky’s Pembroke College, Helen is hoping her library research skills will do the trick. But she may have to resort to a far more “hands-on” course of study. Luckily, there’s someone who’s more than happy to instruct her . . .
History professor Henry Beckham has noticed that his friend, Helen, is behaving strangely. Known for her laser sharp focus—not to mention her snorting laugh—she’s been oddly distracted. He misses that laugh. But it all makes sense when he catches Helen researching erotic writing and discovers her ambition. She seems to think her only option is to die of embarrassment or give up and surrender to spinsterhood in the company of her two basset hounds. Good thing Henry has a much more real-life approach in mind. And his tutorial just might teach them both a thing or two . . .
Praise for Sarah Title’s Southern Comfort Romance series
“Wild, witty, and wonderful.”—Jo Goodman, New York Times bestselling author
“Quite a sexy book.”—USAToday.com
“A really cute and fun story . . . It’s sexy and made me laugh!”—Smexy Books
“A fast-paced read that provided just as many smiles from the humor as it did sizzles from the romance.”—The Book Diva’s Reads

Fun, sweet, cute read that was over way too soon! Helen Lee and Henry Beckham have been friends for ages but their relationship makes a big change when Henry finds out Helen is secretly writing romance novels but needs to upgrade the sizzle they contain. Henry is all about the research and finds he is eager to share his knowledge with Helen anytime she'd like!! With Henry as her inspiration, Helen is sure to have a best seller!! This is one I definitely recommend!
