One month. Two rivals. A plot twist they didn't see coming...

Nora is a cut-throat literary agent at the top of her game. Her whole life is books.

Charlie is an editor with a gift for creating bestsellers. And he's Nora's work nemesis.

Nora has been through enough break-ups to know she's the woman men date before they find their happy-ever-after. That's why Nora's sister has persuaded her to swap her desk in the city for a month's holiday in Sunshine Falls, North Carolina. It's a small town straight out of a romance novel, but instead of meeting sexy lumberjacks, handsome doctors or cute bartenders, Nora keeps bumping into...Charlie.

She's no heroine. He's no hero. So can they take a page out of an entirely different book?

Set over one sizzling August, BOOK LOVERS is the new chemistry-filled 'rivals to lovers' romcom from New York Times #1 bestseller Emily Henry

Critic Reviews

Schitt's Creek for book nerds (Casey McQuiston, New York Times bestselling author of One Last Stop)

Her best yet (Taylor Jenkins Reid, New York Times bestselling author of Malibu Rising)

One of my favourite authors (Colleen Hoover, It Ends With Us)

One of the most enjoyable books you'll read this year

Sizzles on each page. This romcom is perfection

Her characters fizz like good champagne (JOSIE SILVER, author of One Night on the Island)

A LOL enemies-to-lovers rom-com that is calling out to be read on a beach

This book is perfect. I couldn't love it more (CRESSIDA McLAUGHLIN, author of Christmas Carols and a Cornish Cream Tea)

When I read an Emily Henry novel I always feel a particularly undignified kind of jealousy, because I wish I'd written it. Book Lovers is no different: I loved every page, every line. It's so smart, so funny and so sexy. Nora and Charlie have sizzling chemistry - they even make discussing a contract hot. Readers are going to fall head over heels for these two (Beth O'Leary, author of The Roadtrip)

You KNOW I love a book-and a writer-when I bust out my trusty ballpoint and absolutely maul the pages...and that's exactly what I just did to the divine Emily Henry. I could not devour Book Lovers fast enough. Emily Henry is pure delight. I'm utterly enchanted by her wry, self-aware sense of humour, the relish that she brings to every cleverly crafted sentence, and her irrepressible love for love (Katherine Center, New York Times bestselling author of Things You Save in a Fire and How to Walk Away)

I surely loved this story! I am already fond of the author. The story was bit like movies. I loved listening this story because of the amazing combination of storyline and the voice effect... specially the voice of male was damn mesmerizing.

The plotting is quite interesting. Loved the story of small town. The small twist and turns were easy to handle.. The one who wanna ready or listen slow stories or the soothing one, should prefer this one surely!
