β¦ Synopsis
BOOKSTORES, CRUSHES, AND MORTAL ENEMIES is a LGBTQ+ YA romance inspired by the Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan film Youβve Got Mail.
Jackson Hillside just had a meet-cute made for the movies. It could have been truly epic except the other guy, Auggie, spilled coffee all over Jacksonβs favorite shoes. Determined to break his streak of bad luck with dating, Jackson goes to a party where he bumps into Auggie again.
Turns out, Auggieβs pretty great, albeit a little clumsy. Things almost look promising until Jackson learns Auggieβs family was responsible for the closing of Jacksonβs familyβs beloved bookstore.
Jackson doesnβt need Auggie anyway. He has βHe Who Writes,β a guy he met on a writing website, and someone heβs really falling for. But things get confusing when Auggie re-enters Jacksonβs life, and soon, Jackson might be falling for Auggie, too.
Now, Jacksonβs involved with two very different boys, one he can hang out with in real life and one he has never actually met. And, when Jackson finds out the identity of βHe Who Writes,β things go from promising to catastrophic.
