A BRAND NEW sun-drenched, forced proximity rom-com beach read for 2024

‘A simply gorgeous slow-burning love story’. Natasha Harding, Sun

A totally gorgeous and escapist romcom that will hook fans of Beth O’Leary and Emily Henry from the very first page.

Maya is careful and meticulous. She never makes a decision without weighing the pros and cons first. And she’s been planning her dream getaway for a long time.

Alex is laid back and spontaneous. He figures you can’t control what happens in life, so why try? When he sees an incredible offer on a luxury holiday, he books it without a second thought.

But when they arrive at the 5-star resort that they discover they’ve been booked into the same room.

Neither is going to give up a holiday of a lifetime. could Maya and Alex learn that opposites really do attract?

About Amplify Bookstore

An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.

Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.

We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
