Cover Reveal: Central Park Song by Zack Love

Displaying Central_Park_Song_cover.jpg


“Central Park Song” is an urban romance that explores the timeless issues of love in the magical setting of New York City. But before you get excited about what’s behind the pretty cover, Zack Love has two warnings: 1) this is a PG love story so there is NO HOT SEX in it, and 2) this is a screenplay (which means that it’s formatted differently, and written entirely in the present tense with an emphasis on actions and dialogue rather than inner thoughts).  :-) If that hasn’t scared you away yet, here’s where you can add it to your TBR: http://tinyurl.com/GRCentralParkSong

Can love really conquer all? What if you met someone from an entirely different world who could change everything in your world -- and in ways you never imagined?

“Central Park Song” explores that scenario and is an urban love story reminiscent of “Good Will Hunting,” “Pretty Woman,” and “Six Degrees of Separation.”

Rodney is a passionate black man with brilliant talents but a mental illness that leaves him homeless. Melinda is a white Manhattan law partner with an artistic soul, trapped by the pressures of corporate law, her wealthy father, and her three-year boyfriend. A charming chance encounter leads to a magical courtship and life-changing choices that make an unlikely New York romance possible.

Zack Love graduated from Harvard College, where he tried to create a bachelor’s degree in Women. With the bachelor portion of that degree in hand, he settled in New York City but – to afford renting his bed-sized studio – found himself flirting mostly with a computer screen and stacks of documents. Determined not to die a corporate drone, Zack decided to sacrifice sleep for screenwriting, an active social life, and Internet startups offering temporary billion-dollar fantasies.

To feed his steady diet of NYC nightlife, he regularly crashed VIP parties in the early 2000s and twice bumped into his burgeoning crush, a Hollywood starlet. But – much to Zack’s surprise – neither of those awkward conversations led to marriage with the A-list actress. Zack eventually consoled himself by imagining fiascoes far worse than those involving his celebrity crush. In the process, he dreamed up a motley gang of five men inspired by some of his college friends and quirky work colleagues. And thus was born Sex in the Title. But the novel is not autobiographical: Zack never had his third leg attacked by any mammal (nor by any plant, for that matter). In fact, keeping his member safe has been one of Zack’s lifelong goals – and one of the few that he’s managed to accomplish.
