'An absolute joy to read, with messy, realistic, and deeply lovable characters . . . Obuobi's perfect balance of humor and wisdom made this one a true standout' EMILY HENRY
'Sweet and steamy . . . I'll recommend this book for eternity!' ALI HAZELWOOD
Talia Hibbert meets Carley Fortune in this swoon-worthy story of love and friendship in the age of social media - where what you see might not be all you get.
Dr Jojo has it all figured out. Or so it seems to her Instagram followers, who love her no-nonsense advice about men, self-love, dating and sex.
But behind the camera, it's a different story - she's in love with her best friend, Ezra, and he doesn't feel the same way.
Committed to moving on, Jo soon finds the perfect distraction - sweet, shy and sexy writer Malcolm. As the pair begin to date, sparks fly, and Jo's hard exterior begins to soften.
But when she discovers her feelings for Ezra aren't as unrequited as she thought, Jo finds herself with a tough decision to make. Will she seize the opportunity for romance with her best friend, or is new love the path to her happily ever after?
'THIS BOOK IS SPECTACULAR! It is deft and voicy, sexy and emotionally brilliant. I am honestly obsessed' CHRISTINA LAUREN
