Beschreibung

Bloomsbury presents Summer in the City by Alex Aster, read by Diane Guerrero. 'Hotter than the rest of your TBR' Cosmo 'Pure, steamy fun, and the perfect summer read! I adored every word, and I hope Alex Aster never stops writing romance!!' Ali Hazelwood, author of The Love Hypothesis From the New York Times bestselling author of the Lightlark Saga, this is Alex Aster's debut romance novel. Twenty-seven-year-old screenwriter, Elle, has the chance of a lifetime to write a big-budget movie set in New York City. The only problem? She's had writer's block for months, and her screenplay is due by the end of the summer. Desperate for inspiration, Elle returns to NYC – the city she hates – and tries to throw herself into her writing. But then she meets her new neighbour: Parker Warren. He's the city's favourite handsome tech billionaire and he's also the guy Elle hooked up with in a stairwell two years ago. When seeing him again turns into a night of hate-fuelled writing, Elle realises Parker might just be her twisted muse. So, when Parker needs to fake a steady relationship during his company's precarious acquisition and Elle needs to research a list of classic date spots in the city for her screenplay, they suddenly find they might just be exactly what each other needs. Summers always end, and so will this agreement. It's all pretend. Promise. Until it isn't. 'A fun, stay-up-late-to-finish read!' Abby Jimenez, author of Just for the Summer Readers love Summer in the City... 'All I have to say is WOW' ***** 'I absolutely adored this book' ***** 'I'm in love with Parker Warren' ***** 'This will surely be a favourite of 2025' ***** 'I cannot recommend this book enough' *****

Rezensionen

This book is voicy, refreshing, and with two lovable lead characters who have the kind of chemistry that makes you never want to stop reading! Summer In The City is full of banter, sizzling, and so immersive, it made me feel like I was walking around New York. Pure, steamy fun, and the perfect summer read! I adored every word, and I hope Alex Aster never stops writing romance!!

"This was a fun, stay-up-late-to-finish read! Elle and Parker have chemistry from the jump, but a combination of forced proximity and her hatred of him is fuel for witty banter, a long, slow burn and plenty of steam! I loved how Elle's true enemies-to-lovers journey is with New York City itself. Aster pays tribute to so many special NYC landmarks and experiences making the setting every bit a living character as the people in it." - Abby Jimenez, #1 New York Times bestselling author
