About The MASH Up: With sharp wit, laugh-out-loud banter, and enough 90s and 2000s references to fill a Lisa Frank Trapper Keeper, Laura Marie Meyer’s debut, THE MASH-UP is feel-good romcom perfect for nostalgic millennials. MANSION • APARTMENT • SHACK • HOUSE It’s all fun and games until someone falls in love… Ruby Wynne is a staunch rule-follower who lives by the numbers. So when a surprising breakup—on her thirty-fifth birthday—ruins all her well-laid plans, Ruby makes an unexpected wish… Only to wake up inside a M.A.S.H. game from seventh grade. Settled in a Technicolor mansion, driving a tie-dye Jeep, and running a roller-disco restaurant, Ruby is living out her childhood dreams come true—with one exception. According to the game, Ruby’s “other half” is supposed to be Penn Hayes, her brother’s annoying, and annoyingly handsome, best friend. But there’s zero romance between them. Just like in real life, all they share is sarcasm. With no rules to follow and desperate to return to reality, Ruby makes her best guess at an escape plan: win Penn’s heart so the game comes completely true and she can go home. It’s unthinkable. On Ruby’s list of dos and don’ts, Penn Hayes is a lifelong don’t. But as Ruby navigates the magical world she dreamed up at thirteen, she wonders if, by finally throwing out her rules, she might just find her way home to the life and love she deserves. In THE MASH UP, Laura Marie Meyers delivers a sparkling, high concept romcom that is part 13 Going on 30, part Freaky Friday, and all heart.
