'A masterclass of romance. Expect sparkling, unbeatable banter, swooning, tears and so much laughter . . . A sexy little masterpiece!' – Lizzie Huxley-Jones, author of Under the Mistletoe with You

Raina Lewis is dazzling London with her smash-hit podcast The Disability Track, which celebrates neurodiverse women.

Tom Branimir, a cynical investigative journalist known as the ‘King of Cancel Culture’, is seeking his next story.

When a chance encounter brings them together, Tom is fascinated by Raina’s wit and intelligence and she reluctantly agrees to let him profile her for his next book. Though if he betrays her or her community, she warns, she’ll end his career – with a smile.

What starts as a professional arrangement soon blurs into a sizzling romance. But when Tom’s work comes under scrutiny, he faces a decision: should he save his sought-after career, or the unapologetic love he never thought he’d find?

Big-hearted, bold, and full of bite, Unapologetic Love Story is the dazzling debut adult romance novel from bestselling author, Elle McNicoll. For fans of Emily Henry's Book Lovers and Talia Hibbert's Get a Life, Chloe Brown.

Critic reviews

Unapologetic Love Story is a masterclass of romance. Expect sparkling, unbeatable banter, swooning, tears and so much laughter. Slinky and smart. A sexy little masterpiece! (Lizzy Huxley-Jones, author of Under the Mistletoe with You)
I am unapologetically in love with Unapologetic Love Story. I read it in one sitting and haven't stopped thinking about Raina and Tom since, as well as the whole brilliant cast of characters leaping off the page. The story feels beautiful and moving and sexy and important - I can't wait for everyone out there to read it
