Felicity Fizzy Chen is lost. Sure, shes got an incredible career as a beloved romance novelist with a slew of bestsellers under her belt, but when shes asked to give a commencement address, it hits her: she hasnt been practicing what shes preached.

Fizzy hasnt ever really been in love. Lust? Definitely. But that swoon-worthy, cant-stop-thinking-about-him, all-encompassing feeling? Nope. Nothing. What happens when the optimism shes spent her career encouraging in readers starts to feel like a lie?

Connor Prince, documentary filmmaker and single father, loves his work in large part because it allows him to live near his daughter. But when his profit-minded boss orders him to create a reality TV show, putting his job on the line, Connor is out of his element. Desperate to find his romantic lead, a chance run-in with an exasperated Fizzy offers Connor the perfect solution. What if he could show the queen of romance herself falling head-over-heels for all the world to see? Fizzy gives him a hard passunless he agrees to cast the contestants according to a list of romance archetypes. When he says yes, and production on The True Love Experiment begins, Connor wonders if that perfect match will ever be in the cue cards for him, too.

The True Love Experiment is the book fans have been waiting for ever since Fizzys debut in Soulmate Equation. But when the lights come on and all eyes are on her, it turns out the happily ever after Fizzy had all but given up on might lie just behind the camera.
