Here For You

Audrey doesn’t handle heartbreak well. Neither does her Chatbot.

When Audrey’s boyfriend Luke tells her he needs a break, Audrey isn’t fussed; they’ve done this before. They always get back together. Well . . .  they usually get back together. Except this time. Because this time, Luke has fallen for a soda-slurping, Jesus-loving Mormon who is the polar opposite of Audrey. Determined to right her life and reclaim her boyfriend, Audrey turns to Dr. Dan: a chatbot based off her favorite emotionally intelligent male podcaster. If there’s any way to win Luke back, Dan will know how.

The real Dr. Dan is living the dream. He’s famous. He’s got a hot younger wife. And he has what every man desires: A captive audience. But when Dan begins to suspect his wife Rebecca might be cheating on him, his paranoia spirals out of control, threatening the persona he’s built in the process. Dan and Audrey will plummet further into their own dangerous delusions until they clash together in spectacular fashion.

A sharp, twisted, and wildly hilarious exploration of loneliness, artificial intelligence, and two people’s grasp for connection in a world that only knows how to Chat, Here for You is the highly anticipated new novel from Kirsten King, a master of “the darkly comic tale of millennial self-delusion” (Bustle).
