Their relationship is a publicity stunt. Only one of them knows it.

When a famous former child actress meets a West Village bookseller, sparks fly and complications ensue in this queer homage to _Notting Hill_ by the author of _Just as You Are_.

> “Fresh, poignant, and deeply romantic . . . Camille Kellogg is a must-read talent.” —Hannah Bonam-Young, USA Today bestselling author of _Out on a Limb_

Katrina Kelly might have eight million Instagram followers and a multipage IMDb listing, but she also has a completely stalled-out career and some major questions about her sexuality, which seems to be moving closer to raging lesbian every week. Yet maybe she can solve both of those issues at once. . . . After all, rebranding as a queer icon is a great way to jump-start an acting career.

Jude Thacker is fine. Completely fine, so please stop asking. Has the queer bookstore where she works been taken over by a boss who’d rather sell branded tote bags than books? Yes. Does she have a panic attack every time she has to leave her comfort zone? Maybe. Has she been on a single date since her heart was shattered two years ago? Absolutely not.

When Kat and Jude cross paths in the bookstore, Kat realizes that their meet-cute might just be a meet-opportunity. But what’s meant to be a temporary publicity stunt quickly turns into real feelings for both women. As the media scrutiny intensifies, each must decide what’s real, what’s not, and if true love is worth losing everything they believe is keeping them safe.

[2025 queer romances that SHOULD’VE been nominated the goodreads choice awards](https://pucksandpaperbacks.binderybooks.com/item/07Ziz3iOfaEBW5RDQAno/)

It's no surprise that the Romance category of the Goodreads Choice Awards this year is lacking in queer books (especially sapphic and trans rep!) So I put together a list of some queer romances that released this year and should have been nominated.
