Say It Out Loud - Ashley Schumacher

In this heartfelt, magical romcom, a down-and-out podcaster gets a second chance--at her career and love--when she's cast in the audio drama adaptation of her favorite paranormal romance series . . . alongside the one who got away. nJuniper Green doesn't believe in magic anymore. Not since her mom died, her dreams of a publishing career fizzled, and her podcast--the one bright spot in her life--was stolen out from under her. Now, at thirty-two, she's living in her dad's spare room and wondering if life peaked when she was a teenager with a stack of vampire books and an unhealthy obsession with enigmatic immortals. n nThen comes the email: an invitation to audition for the lead role in the audio drama adaptation of The Meadow, the wildly popular vampire romance series that once defined her teenage years.

It's a dream opportunity--until she learns her co-star is James Neely, the brooding, talented actor who played Romeo to her Juliet in a one-night-only college show before breaking her heart and disappearing from the stage and her life . . . right along with the magic. n nTo save the project (and her career), Juniper and James must revive their on-stage chemistry, playing The Meadow's star-crossed lovers for the microphones and social media alike. But as the lines between performance and reality blur, Juniper is left wondering: can you rewrite the ending of a story you thought was over? Because love, like magic, is a fragile thing to lose . . . and to find again.n
