Julieta and the Romeos [9780062996541]

Overview

You’ve Got Mail meets a YA Beach Read with a bookish mystery at its heart in the newest rom-com from Maria E. Andreu. The ideal next read for fans of Emily Henry, Kasie West, and Jennifer E. Smith.

Julieta isn’t looking for her Romeo—but she is writing about love. When her summer writing teacher encourages the class to publish their work online, the last thing she’s expecting is to get a notification that her rom-com has a mysterious new contributor, Happily Ever Drafter. Julieta knows that happily ever afters aren’t real. (Case in point: her parents’ imploding marriage.) But then again, could this be her very own meet-cute?

As things start to heat up in her fiction, Julieta can’t help but notice three boys in her real life: her best friend’s brother (aka her nemesis), the boy next door (well, to her abuela), and her oldest friend (who is suddenly looking . . . hot?). Could one of them be her mysterious collaborator? But even if Julieta finds her Romeo, she’ll have to remember that life is full of plot twists. . . . 

From the author of Love in English comes a fresh take on love and romance, and a reminder to always be the author of your own life story.

Which of her real-life Romeos is writing their perfect fictional meet-cute?

• Enemies to Lovers: Her best friend’s brother has always been her nemesis. So why does sparring with him suddenly feel like flirting?
• Friends to Lovers: She’s known her oldest friend forever, but a summer glow-up has her seeing him in a whole new, heart-stopping light.
• The Boy Next Door: A charming new neighbor is fixing her abuela’s sink… and maybe her cynical view on love.
• Bookish Romance: An anonymous online collaborator is helping Julieta write the perfect rom-com. But is their chemistry just fiction?
