Flirt and Fiction
My name is Tempest Wick—I'm a romance author, dating coach, and the founder of The Connection Coach. I’ll be traveling across the country this summer hosting Flirt & Fiction, a fresh, flirty, feel-good event series that combines romance fiction with real-life connection.

What Is Flirt & Fiction?
It’s part book signing, part singles mixer, part happy hour — with zero pressure and tons of personality. We skip the awkward small talk and create space for people to mingle, laugh, and maybe even fall for a new book or a new crush.
What can I expect out of an evening with Flirt & Fiction?
Check-in + Name Tag Station Guests are welcomed by me personally and fill out custom name tags (trope-style, of course!).
Flirt & Fiction Convo Cards Light, cheeky prompts encourage guests to strike up conversation. Example: “Ask a stranger to recommend a spicy read—and ask why.”
Book Signing Table I’ll have copies of my books available for purchase and signing throughout the event.
Short Announcement Moment (Optional) Around halfway through, I take the mic to invite everyone to connect with someone new, reinforcing the fun, low-pressure vibe.
Duration: 90 minutes (approx.) Optimized for happy hour!
