The Kiss that Launched 1000 Gifs is a contemporary "enemies into lovers" romance with a pseudo-triangle, set in the world of talk radio.
Grace and Ashton cohost "Battle of the Sexes" radio talk show and the two argue like an old couple, leaving listeners to wonder if they have any sparks behind the scenes. Although in reality, Grace has a fiancee, Phillip, who, according to her, is perfect. When the news came that the talk show will be canceled due to poor ratings, Grace and Ashton both engage social media and other advertising campaigns trying to drum up more listeners, and a charity kiss (to raise money for a worthy cause) seems perfect. But that kiss... changes everything.
The author shows excellent knowledge of social media and fandom (such as 'shipping and various social media platforms) thought some of the stuff shown is rather childish (really? showing the kind of food Grace eats is OCD?) and how the relationship can progress beyond mere "friend zone". Though I think the title was a bit too "punny".
