Breakup for Two

Readers who love spicy romance with chaotic meet-cute tropes like Talia Hibbert, Jackie Lau, and Rachel Lynn Solomon. Fans of banter-filled TV shows and movies about awkward dating like Insecure, Someone Great, How to Be Single, and I Want You Back. The setting: A magical New York evening at a hot new restaurant that’s the place to be seen. The situation: Two couples poised to take the next step. Liem’s moved across the country and is about to propose to Natalie, the love of his life—he’s going to surprise her at dinner. On the other side of the restaurant, Bri thought she was about to have a romantic evening with her boyfriend, David. The complication: Very public breakups. For both couples. David’s the one who cheated, but he’s also the one who calls it off. Bri’s left fuming like an episode of excellent reality television: great for the audience, terrible for the featured player. On the other side of the restaurant, Nat drops a bomb of her own: she wants to break up. Suddenly Liem and Bri are single, so they decide to drown their sorrows together. The result: When sparks fly between them, maybe it means the worst day of their lives can potentially become the best thing that ever happened to them both. Maybe.
