Sally Milz is a writer for an SNL-type comedy show. Although she’s very funny, she’s behind the scenes only due to her ordinary appearance. Noah Brewster is a show-biz handsome pop star with surfer good looks. Not only is he super talented, but he’s also a super nice guy.
Noah and Sally meet when he hosts the show, and an unexpected spark ignites between them as Sally helps Noah refine a skit he wrote. However, Sally’s insecurity about her appearance rears its not so pretty head at the after party, and she ends up insulting Noah.
Two years later, during the Covid lockdown, Noah emails Sally out of the blue. A month later, he invites her to visit him, and the affection that began in their emails soon turns to love. The question is whether they’ll let insecurity ruin their charming relationship.
As I've aged, I've become cynical about romance novels and was hesitant to read this one. I’m so glad I did read it, though. Romantic Comedy did not annoy me like I feared it would because I can picture Noah and Sally making it long-term. Their relationship is cute and sweet and inspiring and realistic. Be warned, though. If you need explicit sex scenes, this is not the book for you. But please try it anyway. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised. Why? Because instead of blatantly describing the sex act itself, the author focuses more on the emotional connection between the characters. And let me tell you, the passion between Noah and Sally is intense and palpable. I wish more romance novels were like Romantic Comedy.
