Writing Mr. Right
Spin the wheel. Date the guy. Write the book. Catch feelings?
Kitty Valentine used to be that girl—rom-com royalty with a #1 bestseller and a string of swoonworthy novels. But now? Her latest book flopped harder than a bad Tinder date, and her editor says it's time to spice things up … like, a lot.
The problem? Kitty is more vanilla latte than spicy marg. Writing steamier stuff feels … well, like literary burlesque. But with her bank account ghosting her and her royalties in a situationship with rock bottom, desperate times call for creative (unhinged?) measures.
Enter the Hot Guy Dating Wheel—courtesy of her BFF and a bottle of rosé. A colorful contraption filled with classic romantic “types” Kitty has to date—purely for research, of course. One spin, one guy, one story at a time.
What starts as a last-ditch effort to save her career quickly spirals into a series of unexpected dates, hilarious encounters, and maybe, just maybe … her own real-life love story.Perfect for readers who love awkward heroines, flirty banter, dating disasters, and swoony happily-ever-afters.

My first introduction (many, many years ago) to Jillian Dodd was The Keatyn Chronicles, and I absolutely DEVOURED that series. Then I discovered That Boy and fell even harder (Danny Diamond forever!!!). I’ve still kept up with her books over the years, but—let’s be real—life happened and other books happened… and somehow I never got around to the Kitty Valentine series.
So I was beyond excited to be an ARC reader (thank you so much, Jillian Dodd!) for this revamped edition.
Writing Mr. Right follows Kitty Valentine, a former rom-com queen with a #1 bestseller and a string of swoon-worthy novels. But now? Her latest book flopped harder than a bad Tinder date, and her editor tells her it’s time to seriously spice things up. The only problem? Kitty is more vanilla latte than spicy marg—and she has absolutely no idea how to write steamier scenes.
With her bank account ghosting her and her royalties in a situationship with rock bottom, desperate times call for very creative measures.
At the beginning, I honestly wasn’t a huge fan of Kitty’s attitude (like… girl, be for real). But her character growth completely won me over. Watching her step outside of her comfort zone and really start to discover who she is was one of my favorite parts of the story. Her awakening and personal growth felt genuine—and it’s the kind of journey so many people wish they had the confidence to take themselves.
I can’t wait to continue Kitty’s journey, and I’m already excited to see which trope she gets next.
Jillian, you did an absolutely fantastic job with this book. If you’re like me and love a good smutty romance but still want something sweet, fluffy, and full of rom-com energy, this one is for you.
It’s the perfect read for the Valentine season 🥰💖

Review of advance copy received from Publisher
What a great story and plot. I can't wait for Book 2. Please tell me there is a Book 2 to the "Writing Mr. Right" series.
Kitty is a writer, so you get two stories in one! She is navigating the relationships of romance, writing about all the Mr. Rights in the book world while growing her confidence as a writer. She has the freedom right now to gain real-life experience to draw from, and I am here for that journey, though I do hope that freedom status changes.
If you enjoy a romance story that has more depth to it, you will fall in love with this book. It does not end on a cliffhanger or a happily ever after; it ends on growth and accomplishment for the character and wanting the next book for you.

ARC Review:
Oh my word!!!! This is a re-brand of the Kitty Valentine series.
I laughed so hard while reading this. Kitty Valentine is hilarious. I was literally cracking up to the events that happened to her while she was dating Blake.
I hope and wish she and Matt are endgame🫶🏻
However, I am here for the ride to see all the men she will be dating during the series. 🤩

Review of advance copy received from Author
I first discovered Jillian Dodd when I DEVOURED her Keatyn seties.
Then years later, I fell in love with That Boy & binged those. I still have a thing for Danny Diamond 😍
Then life got in the way and I never picked up Kitty Valentine. So I was excited to read this book with fresh eyes.
As a card carrying dark romance girl, Kittu's books aren't the ones I reach for as a reader. Described as vanilla latte over spicy marg, Kitty seemed to write the books my Gramma would call her "in public" books. (Same woman who gave VC Andrews to an eight year old me and named her dog Sandra Brown)
As a FMC-Kitty unnerved me at the start. Sunshine....you are not as fab as you think. But that set the stage for an amazing awakening storyline....maybe enter the bad boy who will show Kitty she likes being tied up?? (Just my speculation, don't come for me spoiler police) I love love love a FMC who gets to discover herself throughout the book. Speaks to the personal growth many people may or may not possess the confidence to go for.
Bottom line: yes ma'am Jillian!! You've got me hooked for another series!
If you are a smut lover like me, but still like it "sweet"-yup. This is the book for you.
If you hear Keatyn Arrington's voice in your head when you see a blonde girl surfing-Jillian has stayed true to her fantastic representation of the girl you wish you could be in Kitty Valentine. If you're a J Dodd-er, both from the Keatyn days or the newer things-still amazing and this book will make you want to curl up with a blanket and a coffee and get lost. Perfect for the Valentine season!

Full Disclosure: I've read the full Kitty Valentine series in the past and I adore her. Also, I received this copy from Grey's Promotions as an advance copy.
So, Kitty Valentine is the perfect awkward, quirky, sassy heroine. I think every woman can relate to Kitty in some way or another. This book had me laughing out loud during certain parts and on the verge of tears at others. Kitty is so well written that you can't help but feel for her.
The premise of dating a man based on a spinner is fun and interesting. It's hard to balance wanting a date the "tropes". I know how this ends, so I know what a good job the author did with the interweaving story line. This whole series is worth reading again and again.
I'll admit, the only thing I dislike about this revamp is the cover- I prefer the original covers. I would not purchase these covers at all- too busy. That's a minor thing though, and forgivable.
Anyway, pick this one up for a good read.

I am honored to have received an e-ARC of this book! 🙏🏼
I LOVE Jillian Dodd and their writing. Their That Boy series was what got me back to reading fiction as an adult and still one of my favorite series of all time!
I had not read this series before the rebrand, so I’m excited to finally get to it and to read them all. The waiting for the next book is going to be hard, so I’m glad it’s only a couple weeks in between each release.
I really enjoyed it. I adore the writing. I kept wanting to know what was going to happen next. It is so good and I am excited to continue the series, but something about it didn’t give me 5 star feelings.
I’m used to reading YA from them, so having adult main characters and more adult themes surprised me, but I am excited to read something a little different from them.
I feel the rebrand was such a smart idea. I love this new cover of the book.
I really enjoyed our FMC Kitty.
Get your hands on it on February 13th, 2026!

Glow up Chick Lit.
Kitty Valentine has returned. This was such a fun series the first time around and now it gets a fresh look.
Kitty is a best selling author who suddenly isn’t and has to steam up her stories to get more readers. Her BFF proposes a dating wheel and let the hilarity ensue.
First up is a billionaire boss trope. This one was humorous, bittersweet, and a little sad. You need to go into these not expecting an HEA as Kitty will be dating A LOT to get some fresh material.
Blake is a hottie, but being a billionaire isn’t a walk in the park. And Matt the neighbor will cause some interesting interactions as well. I liked him more later in the series than in this one.
This was an entertaining read with some laugh out loud moments. Kitty definitely has some growing up to do, but we will be cheering her on hoping she can find “the one” at some point…after she’s written more successful books first of course.
I voluntarily requested and read an advance reader copy.

Kitty Valentine, former bestselling author but lately her books are flopping. Her agent says it’s time to spice it up. Just one problem. Kitty is more vanilla latte than she is a spicy margarita.
Thankfully bestie Haley has a plan. Dating Roulette. It’s time Kitty Valentine finds some sparks!! It’s time to get dating (and then get writing).
This was a fun read and like every Jillian Dodd book I absolutely devoured it! 💗💗
This read is fun, flirty and definite twenty-something dating shenanigans. Totally a fun vibe 💋💗
I also totally have a crush on Kitty’s neighbour!!
I am excited for this rebrand of the former Kitty Valentine series and I cannot wait to keep dating in the city 💋
Moments
💋 What am I supposed to do? Set myself on fire? That’ll get his attention.
💋 It’s time for Kitty Valentine to stop writing about exciting romance and start living it for herself.

Review of advance copy received from Author
This was a short, cute rom-com that made for the perfect light read. It’s sweet, funny, and easy to breeze through, but it also has a thoughtful message tucked between the laughs.
The story follows an author who slowly realizes that the old-school romance formulas she’s been clinging to just don’t hit the same anymore. In trying to figure out how to truly connect with her audience, she’s forced to look inwardand that’s where the heart of this story really shines. Watching her confront her own fears, insecurities, and walls was just as engaging as the romance itself.
It’s charming without being over-the-top, heartfelt without being heavy, and leaves you with that cozy, content feeling when you turn the last page. A great pick if you’re in the mood for something light, uplifting, and quietly meaningful.

Kitty is a hot 🔥 romance author working on her newest book. What she thought was gonna be a celebratory night, turns into her publisher dropping a huge bomb 💣.
Kitty has to change her style of writing. The wholesome Halmark isn't selling write now. So her friend creates a spin the wheel to see who she should try to date to get experience for her writing ✍️. Because let's face it, she doesn't remember last time she went out on a date.
But there is 2 men in her life the crazy next door neighbor with a cute dog and her bosses boss. Which man will she choose to write her book about.
I love Kitty. She is truly humble. Doesn't care what comes out her mouth. She is a famous author but knows it can go away at anytime.

I’ve read almost all of J. Dodds other series, so I was excited for an excuse to put this before others on my list and dig in. Was definitely not disappointed. You can always expect a little rom-com humor in Jillian’s books and this one had plenty! Just what I needed during this cold season.
I have to say, if Kitty’s books were truly out there for us to read, I’d have to agree with the publishers and readers and want more. The more spice the better!
I loved seeing her journey to find her inner “freak” so she can write stories most fans love and want to relate to. Fun rom-com and I’m excited for more of her journey!

Writing Mr Right follows the life of Kitty Valentine, a best-selling romance author who is thrown in the deep end of learning how to write spice when her life has been anything but spicy. A humorous and light-hearted read.
"“Women want hot, messy sex. Dirty sex with a foul- mouthed, hot- as- hell, take- what- he- wants guy who’ll leave them breathless. And he needs to have some kind of secret past only the heroine can heal him from.” “With her vagina?” I ask, raising a skeptical eyebrow. “Exactly.” She smiles, like I was asking a serious question".

This was a really quick, romance read. I really enjoy everything by Jillian. But this was such a fun read, it was really unique I don’t think I’ve read anything like it. I really enjoyed that what started as just trying to date for ideas in her book became so much more for both of them. I loved how things closed at the end of the book and left the door open for reappearances. It was all very satisfying and I will definitely be reading the next book I’m excited to see where the story goes and hope to see more of Blake!
Review of advance copy received from Indie Reviewers
Writing Mr. Right was a fun, light rom-com with a clever premise. I loved the idea of a romance author trying to create the perfect hero while struggling with her own messy love life. The writing was witty, easy to read, and had some genuinely sweet moments.
For me, the middle dragged a bit and I wanted a little more depth from some of the side characters, but overall it was an enjoyable, feel-good read.
If you’re in the mood for something cute, charming, and low-drama, this one’s worth picking up. 📚💕

This is a good story, which has friendships, emotions, humour, witty banter, and hilarious antics, which leads to an enjoyable, and fun rom com.
I look forward to reading more from this talented author whose work I highly recommend.

This was such a fun story! I laughed out loud at several moments. I’m excited to see Kitty grow her confidence as a writer & even as a woman. I truly love the way Jillian Dodd writes a story. I am ready to see what’s next for Kitty & her dating life! I know what I am wishing will happen but I know Jillian Dodd will knock it out of the park as always. Thank you to Jillian Dodd & Grey’s Promotions for the ARC.

⭐️⭐️🌶️
This is a short romantic comedy, and while it had some enjoyable moments, it ultimately wasn’t a favorite for me. I found the FMC a bit overly awkward, and I didn’t see much character growth over the course of the story. The book appears to be part of a planned 9 book series rebranding, with each installment focusing on a different romantic trope and love interest. Personally, I tend to prefer stories with a clear happily ever after, which made this approach less appealing to me.

I enjoyed this book and am excited to see where this series goes. Kitty is awkward and funny and down to earth. She’s a girl that brings all of the weirdness to dating to the forefront and the witty banter makes it funny. While this wasn’t a traditional HEA, it was a great feel good ending for her.
Review of advance copy
Kitty is told by her publisher that she needs to make her romance books steamier than all her previous ones. In her search for how to do that, she ends up semi-dating the billionaire owner which opens up her ideas both for the romance but also for what she wants out of life. Some excellent dates with some missed opportunities as well. A fun, flirty, and heartfelt read.

I was so giddy reading this! My first time reading Kitty’s stories and I was so glad i got into it cause Jillian sure did an amazing work making me fall in love with the whole uptown big shot now redirected lifestyle all while finding love. I look forward to the next book and just recommend you start already! You won’t regret it! 💯
And oh boy the redesigned cover is absolutely stunning! 🤩

This is a rebrand of the Kitty Valentine Series and this is just such a fun series!
Kitty is an author and her latest book was a flop.
Her friend suggests a wheel of guys she should date to help inspire her.
This is such a fun, light, and quick read.
This is little spice.
Let see who kitty dates next

Absolutely amazing! If it wouldn’t have been for work I would have finished this book way earlier! It’s so cute, fun and so many emotions. I am a huge fan of all of her writing and this did not disappoint! I already am dying to read the next book in the series!

This was an enjoyable introduction to the series and I can see the growth in Kitty over the course of this book. I can’t wait to see where the wheel takes her during this journey and the men she will date. I look forward to reading more in the series!

Firstly I’d like to thank Jillian for the opportunity to read this ARC! -❤️-
Writing Mr. Right was a cute quick read. There were definitely a few pages that made me giggle! I love how, in her own way, Kitty still managed to have a “HEA”! And can I just state that Hayley is the best, best friend! She’s so forward with Kitty but in the most loving and respectful way.
