When Jamies best friend drags her to a speed-dating event, she expects mediocre men and an opportunity to eat her feelings later. What she doesn't expect is a blackout and for her date to be gruesomely killed at their table. After the lights come on, she sees only more bodies and a group of survivors she suspects the killer could be amongst. Like every slasher movie she's ever watched and studied, Jamie knows that the rules of making it out alive are simple: don't split up and definitely don't have sex. But that's easier said than done when she finds herself caught in a love triangle with two dangerously attractive strangers. Nothing speeds up love like fighting for your life and if Jamie's going to get out in one piece, she'll have to figure out who's playing for her heart and who's playing to kill.Speed Dating Trope SheetFatal flirtingTrapped together in a nightclubChoose the survivorReaders are OBSESSED with this killer love storyThis felt like if Scream was a love story and Im so here for it!The suspense, the romance, the fear . . .

A humorous, swoony, and downright terrifying slasher rom-com in which a cinephile gets caught in the middle of a murder spree at a speed-dating event and must use her encyclopedic knowledge of the romance and horror genres to make it as a real-life Final Girl.
When Jamie Prescott and her best friend Laurie attend a speed-dating event, Jamie expects to meet a roster of mediocre men and indulge in some street food afterwards. She doesn’t expect one of her dates to have his throat slit at their table during a blackout. After the lights come back on and there are more bodies on the floor, it becomes clear that dating can be a very dangerous pastime.
Armed with makeshift weapons and Jamie’s extensive knowledge of what NOT to do in a slasher, the remaining speed daters try to find an exit while the killer adds to their body count. As the night progresses and Jamie comes face-to-mask with the murderer, she begins to suspect they are committing the slayings to woo one of the daters and turn them into a real-life Final Girl. But Jamie has other plans, and as she fights for her life, she can’t help but find herself ensconced in a love triangle with two of the other survivors. Will she make it through the bloodshed to find her Happily Ever After? Or does this machete-wielding psychopath have another ending in mind?
For fans of Love in the Time of Serial Killers and Butcher & Blackbird, How to Kill a Guy in Ten Dates is one killer love story.
