Description: "Beloved romance author Margot Bradley has a dark secret: she doesn't believe in Happily Ever Afters. Not for herself, not for her readers, and not even for her characters, for whom she secretly writes alternate endings that swap weddings and babies for divorce papers and the occasional slashed tire. When her Happily Never After document is hacked and released to the public, she finds herself canceled by her readers and dropped by her publisher. Desperate to find a way to continue supporting her chronically ill sister Savannah, Margot decides to trade meet-cutes for murder. The fictional kind--probably. But when Savannah books Margot a six-week stay in a remote Alaskan resort to pen her first murder mystery, Margot finds herself running from a moose and leaping into the arms of the handsome proprietor, making her fear she's just landed in a romance novel instead"--
Brief description: Victoria Lavine's love of romance novels started in high school with a crate of old bodice rippers and a wink from her local librarian. Now, she writes her own Happily Ever Afters when she's not enjoying the great state of Maine with her husband and daughter, taking orders from her two cats, or coming up with excellent reasons to make her next latte.
Review Quotes: "If you loved Emily Henry's Beach Read but wished it was snowier, Any Trope But You is your book! I came for the grumpy lumberjack and stayed for the cast of loveable characters! The only part of this book that isn't hot is the Alaskan setting!"--Kate Robb, author of This Spells Love
