Brought to you by Penguin.

One bookshop in paradise. Two sworn rivals. A whole summer to get through...

Clare thought that by now she would have her life figured out. Instead, she's living with her parents, working a job she hates and has absolutely no idea what she wants to do with the rest of her life.

When she sees a viral job advert for a three-month bookseller position on a Bali beach, she jumps at the chance. But it's not until she arrives in Bali that Clare realises she won't be working in the bookshop alone.

Instead she's sharing the bookshop - and a flat - with a handsome but infuriating American man. Jack is Clare's opposite in almost every way, and it's not long before they're driving each other crazy. But fighting with Jack is also the most fun Clare's had in years, and it's only a matter of time before their relationship turns less than professional...

Beach Rivals is an escapist, slow-burn enemies-to-lovers rom com - the ideal summer read!

Reviews

An ideal summer read The definitive summer novel - one that transports readers to sunny climes and a consoling world of books you won't want to leave Beach Rivals is the perfect slice of summer escapism! Sizzling chemistry paired with swoony romance, and two characters I completely fell in love with. I read it in one sitting! A delight. Ideally would have read it on a beach; still bloody good served on the sofa Complete sunshine in book form... Fun and swoonworthy, a delicious slow burn love story as well as a love letter to books, Beach Rivals is as bright and engaging as its glorious cover' Georgie Tilney's Beach Rivals is such a love letter to bookshops and beach reads. I adored the forced proximity roommate set-up, and was rooting for Jack and Clare to realize the other wasn't nearly as defined by their seeming grump/sunshine roles as they might first appear. The side characters were so lovable and fun, and my kingdom for Simone Adair books to be real. As warm as white sand beneath your toes, as refreshing as a cool breeze - this book utterly transported me! 'Deliciously funny, wonderfully hopeful, swoony-as-heck and perfect summery escapism. I loved it! For fans of You've Got Mail, for those who've always dreamed of taking the island job, for anyone who has swooned at a handsome man's forearms! I devoured it!' An absolute escapist win and tonic of a read! Pure delight: spending time with Georgie's gorgeous characters has left me feeling as refreshed and joyful as if I've had a holiday in Bali Expand reviews
