ABOUT THE BOOK:

What if your love story rewrote you?

Romance author Lacy Travers's career is flatter than the champagne at her last pity party. So when a disgruntled fan accuses her of "ruining love" at a sad little book signing--and her ex-boyfriend Elliott swoops in like a knight in polyester armor--it's just another weird chapter in her life.

But things take a surreal turn when a party invite lands her not in Elliott's apartment... but in an operating room. As the surgeon. In a world straight out of one of her books.

Trapped in her own romance novel--with no clue how to escape--Lacy must survive cringey tropes, steam-soaked plot twists, and the very clichés she once mocked. When Elliott gets pulled into the chaos too, the two must navigate vampire seductions, cowboy duels, and more than a few forced proximity scenes.

The real kicker? The more they rewrite the story, the more the story rewrites them.

With every sizzling page turned, Lacy begins to question the love she's always written off--and the nerdy sci-fi writer who's been beside her all along.

The Romance Loop is a laugh-out-loud, genre-hopping romantic comedy--a story about messy hearts, meta love, and the unexpected magic of a story you never saw coming.
