In this witty, feel-good romantic comedy perfect for fans of Love Is Blind and You’ve Got Mail, an enemies-to-lovers romance unfolds between two rivals who unknowingly fall for each other online.
Perpetually cheerful and eager to please, Gracie Cooper is determined to keep her late father’s Midtown Manhattan champagne shop alive—even as mounting financial pressure threatens to shut it down. When a powerful corporation led by the frustratingly handsome Sebastian Andrews makes a move to buy it, Gracie digs in her heels, unwilling to let go of her father’s dream.
With everything on the line, Gracie turns to an anonymous connection on a blind dating app, where matches build relationships through messages before revealing their real identities. Confiding in “Sir,” she finds unexpected comfort—and a growing romantic connection.
What she doesn’t realize is that Sir is actually Sebastian—the very man she clashes with in real life.
As their online chemistry deepens and their offline rivalry intensifies, Gracie must decide what matters more: protecting her past or risking her heart on a future she never saw coming.
Laugh-out-loud funny and full of heart, this modern rom-com explores online dating, hidden identities, grief, and second chances in love and life.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Layne (Marriage on Madison Avenue) crafts a gleefully shameless homage to Little Shop Around the Corner and You've Got Mail that sparkles like champagne fizz. Onetime aspiring artist Gracie Cooper reluctantly took over her family's Manhattan champagne shop, Bubbles & More, after her father's death. The "more" includes an art corner where she pedals her whimsical prints of colorful cocktails and New York City scenes—which bring in the only revenue keeping the struggling business afloat. Gracie's flirtatious, text-based relationship with "Sir," an anonymous and unavailable guy she met on a dating app under her own moniker, "Lady," keeps her spirits up—so she's conflicted by the instant zing of attraction she feels upon meeting Sebastian Andrews, and even more so once she learns that he's a developer looking to buy out her lease. Rom-com fans will see the resolution of this love triangle coming from a mile away, but it's so fun that they won't mind. Layne grounds her Manhattan fairy tale by surrounding Gracie with supportive friends and family who advise her to step out of her comfort zone and take a chance on love. This is a delight.
