Lizzie Damilola Blackburn introduces her sparkling new novel The Re-Write, a story about second chances, staying true to yourself, and what happens when your ex becomes your next writing assignment.
Temi and Wale meet in London. They flirt, date, meet each other's friends... Then Wale dumps Temi to go on Love Villa.
Instead of giving in to heartbreak, Temi throws herself into her dream: writing. She's within touching distance of a book deal that would solve all her problems. But publishers keep passing on her novel and bills still have to be paid. So, when the opportunity to ghost-write a celebrity autobiography arises, Temi finds herself accepting.
And, of course, the celebrity turns out to be Wale...
Has too much time passed . . . or just enough to spark a whole new kind of relationship?
From the author of Yinka, where is Your Husband? comes a fresh, funny tale of modern love. Interviewed by the author of For Such a Time as This, Shani Akilah, Lizzie will discuss crafting authentic London rom-coms, writing complex characters who stay true to themselves, and how real life inspires fiction.
A perfect night in for readers who love their romance served with sharp wit and real heart.
