An interview that stays with its subjects

Chani Horowitz’s career turns on two encounters with Hollywood star Gabe Parker, separated by a decade. The first comes when she is a struggling journalist assigned to profile her celebrity crush; the second arrives after she has built the writing career she once wanted. Told across these two time periods, the novel connects the pressures of public attention with Chani’s private questions about what their earlier time together meant to Gabe. The interview format also places her professional role alongside a relationship she cannot treat as just another assignment.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in contemporary romance involving a journalist and a Hollywood star.
  • Readers who enjoy stories structured around a first meeting and a reunion years later.
  • Readers drawn to fiction about ambition, public attention, and complicated relationships.

Book overview

NATIONAL BESTSELLER - A restless young journalist with big dreams interviews a Hollywood heartthrob--and reunites with him ten years later to discover exactly how he feels about her in this sexy and engrossing novel

"You will absolutely devour this book. It's filled with delightful banter, hot romance, and a love story that's worthy of the big screen."--Kate Spencer, author of In a New York Minute and host of Forever35

ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: Cosmopolitan, NPR, The Washington Post, Book Riot

Then. Twenty-something writer Chani Horowitz is stuck. While her former MFA classmates are nabbing high-profile book deals, all she does is churn out puff pieces. Then she's hired to write a profile of movie star Gabe Parker: her number one celebrity crush and the latest James Bond. All Chani wants to do is keep her cool and nail the piece. But what comes next proves to be life changing in ways she never saw coming, as the interview turns into a whirlwind weekend that has the tabloids buzzing--and Chani getting closer to Gabe than she had planned.

Now. Ten years later, after a brutal divorce and a healthy dose of therapy, Chani is back in Los Angeles as a successful writer with the career of her dreams. Except that no matter what new essay collection or online editorial she's promoting, someone always asks about The Profile. It always comes back to Gabe. So when his PR team requests that they reunite for a second interview, she wants to say no. She wants to pretend that she's forgotten about the time they spent together. But the truth is that Chani wants to know if those seventy-two hours were as memorable to Gabe as they were to her. And so . . . she says yes.

Alternating between their first meeting and their reunion a decade later, this deliciously irresistible novel will have you hanging on until the last word.
