Sarah Smith | Author-Reader Match: THE CLOSE-UP

April 5, 2022

Instead of trying to find your perfect match in a dating app, we bring you the “Author-Reader Match” where we introduce you to authors as a reader you may fall in love with. It’s our great pleasure to present Sarah Smith!

 

Writes:

 I write sweet and sexy romcoms featuring Filipino-American MCs. In THE CLOSE-UP, media editor Naomi gets drunk at a bar and swears off relationships forever after dumping her cheating ex. She hits on a random hot guy named Simon who happens to be the famous cam guy she lusted after in college. She’s so shocked to see him that she vomits on his shoes before running off. The next day she finds out, much to her embarrassment, that she’s been assigned to film an online series about him (he’s a couples therapist now). The two try to navigate professional boundaries, but their attraction is undeniable, and they can’t help but give in to it.

 

About:

Let’s cut to the chase. You’re aching for something funny and filthy to read, right? Well, look no further because I’m the author for you. My books will have you laughing one minute and fanning yourself the next. It’s a guaranteed good time, promise

 

What I’m looking for in my ideal reader match:

  • Someone who loves heroes who go down A LOT and are all about delivering earth-shattering orgasms to the female main characters
  • Someone who’s a fan of self-pleasure scenes
  • Someone who loves belly laughs

 

What to expect if we’re compatible:

  • Awkward and flawed yet lovable characters
  • Porn-level sex scenes
  • Heartfelt moments
  • Strong family side plots
  • Yummy food descriptions (because food is life!)

THE CLOSE-UP by Sarah Smith

The Close-Up

 

A new work assignment goes delightfully off script in this friends-to-lovers rom-com from Sarah Smith, author of Faker and Simmer Down

Simon Rutler is the perfect man.

Handsome, kind and smart—Simon is amazing. Naomi Ellorza-Hays might be fresh out of a bad relationship and determined to stay single, but Simon is testing her newfound relationship ban. Good thing they’re working together. Simon may be perfect, but he’s also off-limits.

There’s just one small—well, big—problem.

Simon works as a relationship therapist, specializing in helping men better support their partners. But Naomi can’t stop thinking about how she was first introduced to Simon…as the camguy she watched in college. Filming him for her new docuseries suddenly takes on a whole new meaning.

Their relationship is…complicated.

Determined to stay professional, Naomi refuses to give in to their sizzling chemistry—until she does, and even then, it’s strictly no strings attached. Until it’s not. And Naomi realizes that maybe things between her and Simon aren’t so complicated after all.
