À propos de cet audio
In How to Plot a Payback, bestselling author Melissa Ferguson shines a spotlight on a screenwriter who just landed his dream job and the star of the show who just happens to be his arch nemesis. In this enemies-to-lovers rom-com, real life proves to be just as dramatic as on screen, perfect for fans of The Hating Game and The Unhoneymooners by Christina Lauren.
"The perfect escape for lovers of dogs, second chances and swoon-worthy romance. Don't miss this one." --Annabel Monaghan, bestselling author of Same Time Next Summer
He crossed an ocean, and it still wasn't enough to escape his lifelong nemesis. Now he has to work with her.
Successful screenwriter Finn Masters just landed his dream job writing for Neighbors, one of Hollywood's highest-rated, longest-running sitcoms. The only downside? It will put him back in proximity of the show’s universally adored, optimistic, altruistic star, Lavender Rhodes, who has been inadvertently ruining his life since they were school chums in England. But she doesn't even know she destroyed his acting career and wrecked his relationship with the love of his life.
He's not about to let this woman yank yet another dream out from under his feet. In fact, he realizes he's been given the ideal opportunity to plot his payback: spinning her character in shocking new directions. What could go wrong? Only everything. As Finn's not-so-brilliant plot backfires one scene after the next, catching him in the blasts, he's forced to think about this impossible, infuriating . . . and maybe even lovable woman in an entirely new light.
With everything readers have come to admire about Melissa Ferguson's style, humor, heart, and sizzling chemistry (but no explicit content), How to Plot a Payback is a must-read for rom-com fans, especially those looking for enemies-to-lovers with a twist.

He’s got a seaplane business, a well-trained dog, and a loyal and lovable crew to throw back margaritas with. But when a plane belonging to a friend goes missing from Luke’s airport, local detectives are understandably baffled.

They say never bargain with the fae. They also say don’t get drunk on fae wine. Yet romance author Edwina Danforth has managed a blunder with both on her first visit to the infamous faelands. Now she's trapped in a magic-fueled bet she barely remembers with a man she’d be happier to forget. The terms? Whoever can bed the most lovers during their month-long dueling book tour wins a coveted publishing contract. The win should be easy for Edwina. She’s known for penning scintillating tales of whirlwind romance. There’s just one problem: her imagination vastly exceeds her bedroom experience.

Mary Mulligan has two problems: her wisdom teeth…and everything else. Her only daughter is moving overseas. Her husband would rather go golfing than spend time with her. And Mary’s left to wonder why she abandoned her career ambitions when loneliness is all she has to show for it. Plus her teeth really, really hurt. But that’s one problem she can fix—never mind the stories that say if she gets her wisdom teeth removed, the last thirty years of her life will be erased. In fact, Mary wouldn’t mind if the Mulligan curse were actually true.

Ce que les critiques en disent
The book is a true novel, with a sound plot and characters that grow over the story. It's not just some cheap romcon that relies heavily on misunderstandings or convenient plot twist
I highly recommend this book, as well as Melissa Ferguson's Cul de Sac Wars. They're very good stories that happen to also be great romcoms
Fantastic, lovely, book
