Daphne had always loved the way Peter, her fiancé, told their story. How they met, fell in love, and moved back to his lakeside hometown to start a life together. He was really good at explaining it... until she realized that he was actually in love with Petra, her childhood best friend. And so Daphne begins her new life: in beautiful Waning Bay, Michigan, far from her family and friends, but with an idyllic job as a children's librarian (which barely makes ends meet). So she considers sharing an apartment with the only person who might understand how she feels: Miles Nowak, Petra's ex-boyfriend. Scruffy, chaotic, and prone to listening to sad ballads for comfort, Miles is the complete opposite of the practical, discreet Daphne, so private about her personal life that her coworkers joke about whether she's in the FBI or a protected witness. The two new roommates mostly avoid each other, until one day, while drowning their sorrows, they strike up a fragile friendship and hatch a plan. And if, in order to follow through on that plan, they have to share pictures of their summer adventures together--pictures that lead to the wrong conclusions--who could blame them? But Daphne is only doing it to be seen, of course, because she would never start a new chapter in her life by falling in love with her ex-boyfriend's new girlfriend's ex-boyfriend... right?

Harriet and Wyn have been the perfect couple since they met in college--they go together like salt and pepper, honey and tea, lobster and rolls. Except, now--for reasons they're still not discussing--they don't. They broke up five months ago. And still haven't told their best friends. Which is how they find themselves sharing a bedroom at the Maine cottage that has been their friend group's yearly getaway for the last decade. Their annual respite from the world, where for one vibrant, blissful week they leave behind their daily lives; have copious amounts of cheese, wine, and seafood; and soak up the salty coastal air with the people who understand them most. Only this year, Harriet and Wyn are lying through their teeth while trying not to notice how desperately they still want each other. Because the cottage is for sale and this is the last week they'll all have together in this place. They can't stand to break their friends' hearts, and so they'll play their parts. Harriet will be the driven surgical resident who never starts a fight, and Wyn will be the laid-back charmer who never lets the cracks show. It's a flawless plan (if you look at it from a great distance and through a pair of sunscreen-smeared sunglasses). After years of being in love, how hard can it be to fake it for one week... in front of those who know you best?

FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR & GLOBAL TIK TOK SENSATION, EMILY HENRY Two writers compete for the chance to tell the larger-than-life story of an heiress with more than a few plot twists up her sleeve in this dazzling and sweeping new novel from Emily Henry. When Margaret Ives, the famously reclusive heiress, invites eternal optimist Alice Scott to the balmy Little Crescent Island, Alice knows this is it: her big break. And even more rare: a chance to impress her family with a Serious Publication. The catch? Pulitzer-prize winning human thundercloud, Hayden Anderson, is sure of the same thing. The proposal? A one-month trial period to unearth the truth behind one of the most scandalous families of the 20th Century, after which she'll choose who'll tell her story. The problem? Margaret is only giving each of them tantalising pieces. Pieces they can't put together because of an ironclad NDA and an inconvenient yearning pulsing between them every time they're in the same room. And it's becoming abundantly clear that their story - just like the tale Margaret's spinning - could be a mystery, tragedy, or love ballad ... depending on who's telling it.

One harrowing night, Winona and Lucille realize they can’t wait until graduation to start their new lives. They need out. Now. One hour later, they’re armed with a plan that will take them from their small Michigan town to Chicago. All they need is three grand, fast. And really, a stolen convertible can’t hurt.
