Emily Henry · 2022 · novel

Emily Henry's 2022 novel about a cutthroat literary agent who keeps running into the same editor in a tiny North Carolina town. It flips the Hallmark plot: the heroine is the big-city career woman who usually gets dumped in act one. Isaac finds out what the fuss is about. He'll be back for another Emily Henry next season.
