From Jerk to Perk

The Why Choose Chronicles

I’ve got three weeks to turn a grumpy, brooding heartthrob into the next romance sensation — or kiss my job goodbye.

The plan was simple: sign the anonymous genius who wrote the smuttiest, swooniest romance I’ve ever read.

The reality?

My dream author is a grumpy heartthrob who can’t stand me — and he’s not alone. His two cocky partners are just as infuriating… and just as irresistible.

Suddenly, my “easy” assignment becomes three impossible alpha males who turn every business meeting into a slow-burn battle of wills.

Every meeting is chaos.

And somehow, the snark turns into banter, the banter into flirting, and the flirting into the kind of heat that leaves me questioning whether I’m working on a rom com… or starring in one.

Because this isn’t just enemies-to-lovers.

It’s a slow-burn, laugh-out-loud, steamy why choose romance where every jerk move comes with one very big perk: three men who just might rewrite my happily ever after.
