I'm writing a book and need your help!

I've been writing a short, light chick-lit/romance novel book (think Meg Cabot or Sophie Kinsella) where the main female character has androgenetic alopecia and doesn't want her new boyfriend to find out. Both main characters are middle school teachers. The book is due out in May 2017.

What I need is a title! Maybe a pun or something on "hair" or "wig," or maybe just something that leaves it a little more coy. My son said it should have the word "secret" in it somewhere.

Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks!

"Fading Glory"

I mean our hair is our crowning glory and, having aga myself, I've watched mine slowly fade away.
I wish you the best of luck with your book! It's so rare to see a main character in print or film with hair loss it's about time!

"A Smooth Secret"
or "A Teacher's Smooth Secret"

Good luck with your book! That's exciting! Please keep us updated.

Wow, you guys are great! Thanks so much.

I particularly like Fading Glory.


Here's a possible prototype for the cover right now. I was thinking of Only Twenty-Five because that's how old the main character is when she starts losing her hair. I could also see Fading Glory working with this same cover artwork.

What do you think?

I like your cover and the simple phrasing. Another option could be "Fall Out"

Sounds like something I would read! How about "Wigging Out Over Love"? or "Wigging Out About Love".

I think she should tell him right away. The idea of hiding it seems detrimental to the burgeoning relationship and... if he's not going to be cool with it, then he's not the guy for her.

No need to hide.
Beautiful as is.
