Synopsis

Aoyama Koharu can write the perfect romance on paper, but she "short-circuits" in real life. Faced with her father's arranged marriage, she flees to Bali for "novel research."

Her escape hits a wall at Ngurah Rai Airport when she meets Arjuna Dewantara—a laid-back local with major ikemen vibes who’s forced to manage his family's struggling homestay. To Koharu, Arjuna is the ultimate distraction to her writing and her heart.

Trapped under the same roof for 30 days, Koharu must survive Arjuna’s playful teasing and the shadows of her life in Japan. Can she find the courage to stop running and finally choose her own ending? Or will her story end in a chaotic "Writer’s Block"?

Note from author

Hi! Thanks for stopping by!

"The Overthinking Author and Her Balinese Muse" is my first works here. This is a lighthearted Rom-Com about a chaotic Japanese author who runs away to Bali, only to find that real life is much harder to write than fiction.

Hope you guys enjoy the chaos!
