This is the kind of book you finish with a whole-body, happy sigh and a warm ache in your...

Love & Other Disasters

“This book is warm, fuzzy, laugh out loud funny, full of heart, and incredibly real. It has the classic elements rom-com fans crave, but with a modern twist. The characters work on finding themselves as much as they work on finding each other, important social issues are touched upon, and yet there are still plenty of flirty, romantic, embarrassing, and steamy scenes mixed in. To put it simply, this book is like a heaping plate of your favorite comfort food, and it's safe to say you won't want this meal to end.”
