Because Emilly can’t. She nearly burned down her apartment making mac and cheese, and she’s twenty-two, a literature grad student in Seattle, and has never been kissed.
Her best friend Paula has a plan: find her a boyfriend by December 31st. Her method? An anonymous blind-date website that looks like it was designed in 2004.
What follows is a parade of disasters. A man who says “mommy” in his profile. A date who isn’t who he said he was. A dinner so bad she walks out before the wine arrives.
Ready to give up for good, Emilly agrees to one final match.
Then she meets Gui. Shy, bookish, a little nervous, and exactly the kind of man who would love to argue about novels for hours. One candlelit dinner later, she’s pretty sure he might be everything on her list.
Except one thing.
A short, sweet, and funny contemporary romance about blind dates, first kisses, and finding exactly who you need when you’ve stopped looking.
