More DescriptionDisenchanted author Harry Sinclaire is completely out of ideas. No one, including himself, thinks he can deliver his next book. His agent has just given him a deadline. His fans don't believe in him in anymore. Despite all the pressure, his haunting past clings to him, allowing nothing or no one to inspire him. Not even moving back to his hometown of Wilmington, North Carolina can bring him back to the person he was when he wrote his first novel. Harry's miserable world is disrupted when Anika, his best friend's fianc#65533;e, moves in with him and brings her own complications and secrets. As the best man in the wedding, Harry reluctantly helps Anika with a few wedding details, forcing him to spend more time with her, yet the more he follows Anika around, the more complicated both of their lives become. Suddenly, this woman he loathes is inspiring the book he desperately needs. As damaging as it would be to write a book about his best friend's fianc#65533;e, Harry is running low on time and options. With a push from his sister, Harry disregards his friend's feelings and his better judgment and begins writing a scathing novel based around Anika's life story. The deeper he digs, the more he uncovers not only about her but also about his best friend. With his sister's happiness, his own fame, and a secret business arrangement on the line, Harry finds himself in a worse state than he was before. By the wedding day, Harry's quest for success and the elusive feeling of happiness is running him and everyone around him into the ground.
