______________________________
Falling for your ex is a bad idea... right?
Eva Kitt dreamed of pursuing a journalism career all her life. Instead, she's the host of Sausage Talk, interviewing B-list celebrities over lukewarm hotdogs. When Eva's impromptu public call out of her college ex goes viral, she's thrust into the spotlight. It doesn't help that said ex is Rylie Cooper, a beloved social media personality, who built a platform on deconstructing toxic masculinity and teaching men how to be good partners.
Forced to confront Rylie on a live episode of Sausage Talk, he offers Eva a deal: allow him to take her on a series of dates to make up for his toxic behaviour, then debrief them on his channel to show he's changed. Eva refuses to play nice, but this could advance her own career... and she wouldn't mind defaming Rylie's good name in the process. When their manufactured dates start to feel real, Eva has to wonder if the boy that broke her heart has become the man that might heal it.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Eddings (Late Bloomer) takes clear inspiration from Chicken Shop Date in this witty contemporary. Sharp-tongued Eva Kitt, 27, aspires to be a serious journalist. For now, however, she's the host of Sausage Talk, a social media video series in which she interviews lesser-known celebrities while eating and opining about hot dog preferences. Meanwhile, her college ex Rylie Cooper, a frat bro who ghosted her, has made a name for himself as a well-respected podcaster focused on unlearning toxic masculinity. When Eva makes a drunken post detailing their history and calling out his hypocrisy, her rant goes viral and her boss forces her to bring Rylie onto the show. During the interview, ever-charming Rylie gets Eva to agree to go on six dates with him so he can prove he has changed. This project gets off to a bumpy start, but even as awkward and tense moments abound, Eva can't shake her attraction to Rylie—especially when he opens up to her about the traumatic reason why he stopped answering her calls. Eddings's unflinching depiction of toxic social media comments adds authenticity and depth to the proceedings. The setup is clever and the eventual love scenes are sensuous. The author's fans will not be disappointed.
