Brought to you by Penguin.

When the love of her life shows up with a girlfriend, Tia decides it's time to put herself out there.


Expectations of dating apps are low, so it's a surprise when she instantly connects with handsome photographer Nate. He's everything she's looking for; he makes her feel safe, seen, and desired.

Tia assumes they're on the same page - the only catch? They're yet to have The Talk.

In a generation that's normalised competing over who cares the least, can Tia overcome her fears and lay her cards on the table, in the pursuit of something real?

Reviews

Smart, sexy and vibrant. Absolutely sizzling with feeling. I wish all books were this fun. ESSENTIAL summer reading! An utterly compelling, massively relatable and completely entertaining trip through modern romance. The beauty of Taylor-Dior's writing is how brilliantly it centres personal growth as well as emotional vulnerability. I devoured it! A book that bridges the gap between Bridget Jones and Insecure, this is one fresh summer romcom we can't wait to read! A novel that perfectly captures the messiness of modern dating. Expand reviews
