About the Author
Timothy Janovsky is a queer, multidisciplinary storyteller based in Washington, DC. He holds a Bachelor's degree from Muhlenberg College and a self-appointed certificate in rom-com studies (accreditation pending). When he's not daydreaming about young Hugh Grant, he's telling jokes, playing characters and writing books. He also publishes romantic comedies with Sourcebooks Casablanca, including Never Been Kissed and You're a Mean One, Mathew Prince.
Reviews
"The (Fake) Dating Game is an utter delight, chalked full of all my favorite tropes. Game show antics, idiots-in-love, and a healthy dose of steam, this book swept me off my feet. Sexy as hell, with Janovsky's trademark wit and charm, this book is everything I want in a romance novel!"
-- Alison Cochrun, author of The Charm Offensive and Kiss Her Once for Me

"Janovsky (New Adult) returns with a playful yet heartfelt romp through grief and new love set against the backdrop of reality TV....The result is fun, fast-paced, and full of feeling." - Publisher's Weekly

"Janovsky (New Adult, 2023) is an inspired choice to help Harlequin launch their new Afterglow imprint since he has a real flair for delivering sensually descriptive love scenes with steam to spare and a gift for crafting characters with whom readers can readily connect. Pair this with a fun game show setting (think Supermarket Sweep) and a story line that is both humorous and thoughtful in its exploration of the grieving process, and readers are the real winners!" - Booklist

"Fans of the fake-dating trope and game shows will find a lot to like here. Holden is a sympathetic narrator, and readers will happily root for him as he learns that while there are no quick fixes for grief, opening up to the right people can make all the difference." - Library Journal
