From the NAACP Image Award-nominated author of Happily Ever Afters
comes a dual POV rom-com about Reggie and Delilah, who fall in love
through missed connections and chance meetings on holidays over the
course of a year. Perfect for fans of Nicola Yoon and Jenny Han, with
crossover appeal for readers of Jasmine Guillory and Talia Hibbert
romances.
Delilah always keeps her messy, gooey insides hidden behind a wall of
shrugs and yeah, whatevers*.* She goes with the flow--which is how she
ends up singing in her friends' punk band as a favor, even though she'd
prefer to hide at the merch table.
Reggie is a D&D Dungeon Master and self-declared Blerd. He spends his
free time leading quests and writing essays critiquing the game under a
pseudonym, keeping it all under wraps from his disapproving family.
These two, who have practically nothing in common, meet for the first
time on New Year's Eve. And then again on Valentine's Day. And then
again on St. Patrick's Day. It's almost like the universe is pushing
them together for a reason.
Delilah wishes she were more like Reggie--open about what she likes and
who she is, even if it's not cool. Except . . . it's all a front. Reggie
is just role-playing someone confident. The kind of guy who could be
with a girl like Delilah.
As their holiday meetings continue, the two begin to fall for each
other. But what happens once they realize they've each fallen for a
version of the other that doesn't really exist?
