Summary:
"Who knows the ins and outs of romance better than a
Harlequin
editor? A surprising look into Patience Bloom's unexpected real-life love story. At some point, we've all wished romance could be more like fiction. Patience Bloom certainly did, many times over. As a teen she fell in love with
Harlequin
novels and imagined her life would turn out just like the heroines' on the page: That shy guy she had a crush on wouldn't just take her out-he'd sweep her off her feet with witty banter, quiet charm, and a secret life as a rock star. Years later she moved to New York and found her dream job, editing romances for
Harlequin
. Every day, her romantic fantasies came true-on paper. Bloom became an expert when it came to fictional love stories. But her dating life remained uninspired. Then one day a Facebook message from a high school friend, Sam, sparked a relationship with more promise than she'd had in years. But Sam lived thousands of miles away-they hadn't seen each other in more than twenty years. Was it worth the risk? Finally, Bloom learned: Love and romance can conquer all"--Provided by publisher.
