Romance LGBTQ
Heartstopper meets Before Sunrise in this irresistible, swoony YA rom-com about two boys unexpectedly falling in love over the course of one night in Paris. Ben Lim is so excited for his French Club's trip to the most romantic city in the world: Paris. Ben's even made a to-do list of all the things he wants to accomplish, like see the Mona Lisa IRL and read a book in a sophisticated cafe. Also, Ben's parents honeymooned in Paris, and being there will help Ben connect more to the memory of his late dad. But things go wrong the first night when Ben misses curfew and finds himself locked out of the youth hostel...until morning. Also locked out? Tyler Travers, the most popular and handsome boy in school. Who, oh yeah, happens to be Ben's former friend and current nemesis. Ben cannot deal with Tyler's entitled-jock attitude. But now that they're thrown together, the two of them end up roaming around Paris and stumbling upon some cool sights--like the glittering Eiffel Tower, a drag show in the Marais, and even a chance to "borrow" a moped. As their misadventures take them all across the city, Ben fights his growing attraction to Tyler, which was NEVER part of the plan. The two of them couldn't be more different. Besides, Tyler doesn't even remember that they were once friends. Right? Acclaimed author Stephan Lee (K-Pop Confidential) brings the City of Light to dazzling life in this enchanting, funny, and adorable rom-com about croissants, crushes, and kisses that's perfect for fans of Alice Oseman and Jenny Han.
