A desperate mother. A dubious escort. And a deranged author who won’t leave them alone. Caroline Lindley is determined that her new romance novel will be her best one yet. Fantasy! Formal gowns! Fencing! And, of course, a twentysomething heroine to star in an enemies-to-lovers plot with all of Caroline’s favourite tropes.

But Lady Rosamund Hawkhurst is a thirty-six-year-old widow with two children, her sole focus is facilitating a peace treaty between her adopted nation and her homeland, and she flatly refuses to take the correct approach to there being only one bed. What’s an author to do?

Based on her popular Fantasy Heroine YouTube Shorts series, Jill Bearup’s debut novel brings us the best of worlds both meta- and medieval-inspired. Terry Pratchett aficionados will enjoy the political intrigue paired with convivial, tongue-in-cheek satire. And then there's the slow-burn, fade-to-black romance too…

If you loved Stranger Than Fiction and The Princess Bride, you will soon find yourself cheering on enemies-to-BFFs Rosamund and Caroline as together they learn what it means to be the hero of your own story.

I think Jill came across really well in this audiobook, it felt almost like a DnD narration, characters with different accents, tones and cadence. Plot twists, 4th wall breaking and great, fun, refreshing storytelling!

I know the author didn’t want to make a second book but I’m purposefully withholding from watch the new sci-fi series in the hopes another book is written for that title too! I’m glad the story was wrapped up with the characters whilst leaving the story with Caroline nice and open - brilliant read but an even better listen! Great work!
