How to Write a Love Story
How to Write a Love Story is a warm, witty contemporary romance that blends heartfelt emotion with sharp humour and a behind-the-scenes look at the publishing world. At its centre is Ciara Sheridan, an aspiring writer struggling under the weight of her late father’s literary legacy, and Sam, a determined editor sent to help her finish a bestselling fantasy series she never expected to inherit.
Set against the atmospheric backdrop of rural Ireland, the story follows Ciara and Sam as they are forced into close proximity to complete an impossible manuscript on a tight deadline. What begins as a purely professional arrangement slowly evolves into something deeper, as creative clashes, shared grief, and unexpected chemistry blur the boundaries between work and personal life.
As Ciara battles writer’s block and the pressure of living up to her father’s name, Sam is tasked with keeping the project—and its fragile author—on track. Along the way, both are pushed to confront their own fears about failure, legacy, and what it really means to create something lasting.
Filled with banter, emotional depth, and a slow-burn romantic arc, How to Write a Love Story explores themes of grief, identity, creative ambition, and healing. It’s a character-driven romance about finding your voice again—and discovering that sometimes the best stories are the ones you didn’t plan to write.
