Library or Lattes?

Curl up with the perfect YA autumn small-town romance, for fans of grumpy x sunshine and enemies to lovers

A cosy, swoony autumn romance where one big decision leads to two different versions of love – for fans of The Pumpkin Spice Cafe and Gilmore Girls, and readers of Jenny Han.

One choice. One season. Two different versions of love .

Willa lives in Oak Falls, a small town where the Fall months are full of red and gold leaves, pumpkin spice and bonfires. Willa loves it but deep down she has sometimes wondered if just maybe she might want more. When she is left some money by a distant aunt, her small world is rocked. It's a Sliding Doors moment .

In alternating chapters see Willa live each version of her decision - and two different versions of falling in love .

On one hand, she has her eye on London and a travel-journalism course – but she needs to study for it, so has to start spending her weekends in the library, where Theo, a grumpy out-of-towner who thinks everything here is beneath him (and has an annoyingly handsome way of pushing his glasses up his nose) also hangs out.

Or she can take her time and stay in Oak Falls, working at the coffee shop while she decides exactly what the perfect round-the-world trip would be. But she recently got a new boss: monosyllabic James, who's back in his childhood town with a broken heart.
