Romance fans, our long national nightmare is over: Tia Williams is back. The Missed Connection follows Sasha, a successful casting agent who’s sworn off relationships — until an unexpected meet-cute with a man on a flight to Paris changes everything.
The problem? They never exchange names or contact info, sending Sasha on a wild hunt to track down Mr. Seat F. That includes hiring Wesley, an attractive private investigator with whom she has…quite a bit of history. Expect blazing chemistry, laugh-out-loud chaos, and one very unfortunate company-wide email. We asked Williams a few questions. Here’s what she had to say…

Williams: My great-grandmother’s porcelain Black baby doll from the 1930s.
Q: What should be required reading for every human being?
Williams: The Warmth of Other Suns by Isabel Wilkerson.
Q: What’s one thing you’re an armchair expert on?
Williams: Real Housewives.
Q: What’s the last thing you read that you can’t stop thinking about?

Q: What’s the one thing you can't leave the house without?

Q: If you were stranded on a desert island and could only eat one thing, what would it be?
