A romance novel-obsessed social media influencer revisits her exes on her hunt for true love in this romantic comedy from the author of Set On You.
Romance book connoisseur Tara Chen has had her heart broken ten times by ten different men—all of whom dumped her because of her “stage-five clinger” tendencies. Nevertheless, Tara is determined to find The One. The only problem? Classic meet-cutes are dead, thanks to modern dating apps. So Tara decides to revisit her exes in hopes of securing her very own trope-worthy second-chance romance.
Boston firefighter Trevor Metcalfe will be the first to rush into a burning building but the last to rush into a relationship. Love just isn’t his thing. When his new roommate Tara enlists him to help her reconnect with her exes, he reluctantly agrees. But Tara’s journey is leading him to discover his own new chapter.
The more time they spend together, the more Tara realizes Trevor seems to be the only one who appreciates her authentic, dramatic self. To claim their happily ever after, can Tara and Trevor read between the lines of their growing connection?

Advance Praise for Exes & O's:
"Unapologetically romantic, wonderfully sexy, always brilliant. I adored Set On You, but Exes and O’s is the stuff bookish dreams are made of. With this stunning sophomore novel, Amy Lea has officially rocketed her way into my heart as a must read author!"—Ali Hazelwood, New York Times bestselling author
-
“Amy Lea’s Exes and O’s is for anyone who’s ever dreamed their book boyfriend could exist in real life. It’s a charming and funny friends-to-lovers romance that sparkles with Amy’s signature sweetness and steam.”—Carley Fortune, New York Times bestselling author of Every Summer After
-
“Laugh out loud, ardently feminist, and with a hero straight out of a fevered daydream, Exes and O's is an outright, unmitigated delight!”—Christina Lauren, New York Times bestselling authors of The Unhoneymooners

Amy Lea.... what have you done to me. A romance novel-obsessed social media influencer revisits her exes on her hunt for true love. Addictive, steamy, humorous. Amy lea does it again with the follow-up to the brilliant first book in the influencers series. This is the slow burn we all have been waiting for. The Heroine of this one is not only a BOOK INFLUENCER but a hopeless Romanic, but this hit in all the right places. This is the follow-up to her first book, Set on You, and honestly, I loved this just as much as the first but probably more. I loved the pacing of this book and all the modern references. It's really like a Taylor Swift song that you can repeatedly play but read instead. I can't wait to see what Amy Lea comes up with next. Run for this one and get your library requests in now.
Thanks to Berkley & Amy Lea for the advance reader copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
