About the book
When her boyfriend of seven years suddenly breaks up with her, relationship advice columnist Gemma Cho is convinced that real love doesn’t exist. As a bisexual woman who’s had zero luck with both men and women, she’s ready to give up on her own romantic prospects. That is, until she's paired up with world-renowned photographer Celeste Min on a potentially career-saving piece on modern love. Celeste is extremely talented and sexy, and would be the perfect collaborator and rebound for Gemma if it weren’t for one major fact: she’s Gemma’s ex, the one that broke her heart in college and moved to a whole other country before Gemma could even make sense of what went wrong between them. Heightened by the unmistakable sparks that still fly between them, Gemma and Celeste struggle to keep their relationship strictly professional. For the sake of her career, Gemma needs this piece to do well. And for the sake of what’s left of her beaten up hopeless romantic heart, she wants to fall head over heels for Celeste again. But can she trust Celeste to feel the same this time around?

Reader voices
The most-liked reviews on Hardcover (credited to their authors).
“It was a really quick read, which I liked. The first half of the book I was having a little fun but I didn't like most of it. They didn't have chemistry, the sex scenes were non-existent and very awkward, and I don't know, sometimes they were acting like straight men. I was really excited for this book and it really disappointed me. I wanted to annotate it and I gave up on page 2. The writing style was also one of the bigger problems, there was just telling and no showing. In my opinion we wouldn't even need the Celeste chapters.”
