Publisher's Summary
A hilarious debut novel about a perfectly imperfect love story that will delight fans of Evvie Drake Starts Over.
Even the smartest people can be stupid at love.
When Stacey Lane writes a feminist take on Frankenstein, she never imagines it will catch the eye of unbelievably sexy Hollywood star Tommy DeMarco. Tommy’s passion for her book - and for her, a recently widowed poet, mom, and certified mess - threatens to turn her life upside down, or maybe right-side up. From their first poolside meeting the two are set on a collision course as they go about making the book into a movie, making each other crazy, and making love, if only in secret. Fueled by desire, love, grief, expertly poured cocktails, and crackling dialogue, Monsters: A Love Story is a witty portrait of a relationship gone off the rails and two people who are made for each other - even if they’re not so sure they see it that way.

"An addictive page-turner, ripe with seduction and charm, that drops insights into this messy, crazy, wonderful thing called love.” (Washington Independent Review of Books)
“Entertainingly dyspeptic.” (Vogue)
“A perfectly imperfect love story.” (Bookpage)
What the critics say
Selected as a Summer Beach Read Pick by Harper’s Bazaar, Associated Press, Purewow, and Refinery29
“The unlikely romance between a feminist poet and the Hollywood heartthrob who options her book is at the center of Kay’s entertainingly dyspeptic Monsters.” (Vogue)
“In the tradition of Lolly Winston’s Good Grief....this fast-paced novel will have readers immersed in the heady feeling of an alcohol-fueled affair with one of the sexiest men alive.” (Library Journal, starred review)
“Witty and so nimbly-worded, Monsters had me at hello. From the near-madcap improbability of the novel’s premise, to the punchy repartee and ping-pong banter between Stacey and Tommy, it’s impossible to resist the book’s charms. .” (Jill Alexander Essbaum, author of Hausfrau)
