A proposito di questo titolo

A floundering twenty-something who’s sworn off romance finds herself roped into her meddling sister’s matchmaking business in this sparkling debut romcom that asks: Can we protect ourselves while falling in love?

“A sharp, funny, feel-good love story about bad dates, big feelings, and one deliciously slow-burning love.”—Nikki Payne, USA Today bestselling author of The Princess and the P.I.

Kaia Harper may not have a plan for her life, but she knows what she won't be doing—falling for somebody's dusty son, promising forever. She'd rather spend the summer after college having disappointing one-night stands and watching crime show reruns. At least she won’t be caught off guard since she already knows how all those stories end.

But when her very pregnant and newly single sister calls for help, Kaia reroutes, stumbling back home to suburban Connecticut…and into the business plan of her sister's new matchmaking company. Kaia’s views on love remain as bleak as her career prospects, but if becoming the inaugural client can distract her from existential questions like "What am I even doing with my life?", Kaia can suffer through a few bad dates and call it a favor.

When Ro Jackson finds Kaia stalled on the side of the road, he isn’t put off by her attitude. His steady disposition is Kaia’s opposite and makes him exactly what she needs—a friend in town who can handle her just as she is. But as Ro talks Kaia through a summer of failed matches, she finds herself drawn to more than just his poetic outlook and friendship.

Kaia hadn’t seen this one coming, but as she and Ro grow closer, she’ll have to decide what’s more important: needing to know the end of every story, or jumping into the unknown.

Recensioni della critica

“A sharp, funny, feel-good love story about bad dates, big feelings, and one deliciously slow-burning love that captures the serious mess of modern womanhood and manages to be hilarious at the same time.”—Nikki Payne, USA Today bestselling author of The Princess and the P.I.

“Adrienne Thurman is a master of character and connection.”—Talia Hibbert, New York Times bestselling author of Get a Life, Chloe Brown

“A skeptical young woman, feeling directionless and disillusioned with love, agrees to be the first client for her older sister’s matchmaking business in Adrienne Thurman’s refreshing and emotionally resonant debut. . . . There’s enough comfort and tenderness in this warm hug of a novel to soften the heart of even the staunchest cynic.”Publishers Weekly, starred review

“With a relatable and steamy slow-burn love story, a fun meet-cute, a vibrant cast of characters, and an emotional quarter-life crisis, Thurman’s adult fiction debut will appeal to twentysomethings like Kaia and Ro and older readers wanting to revisit that era.”Library Journal

“This is a witty adult contemporary rom-com about a commitment-averse woman who agrees to be the first client in her sister’s matchmaking venture and unexpectedly finds herself confronting love, fear, and letting go. Don’t Tell Me How It Ends is a stellar book club pick because it sparks the kind of conversation that lingers: powerful, honest, and necessary.”—Ashley Mathias Root, author of The Drowning Daze of Astraea for Glamour
