LAST CHANCE BOOKS

praise

Packed with smart humor and sparkling prose, Last Chance Books strikes both the funny bone and the heartstrings. You’ll root for Madeline as old and new relationships thwart her fight to save her family’s bookstore. A delightful read.

- Laura Taylor Namey, New York Times bestselling author of A Cuban Girl’s Guide to Tea and Tomorrow

A charming, hilarious debut that pays tribute to You’ve Got Mail while feeling uniquely modern. Kelsey Rodkey’s banter is what romcom dreams are made of, and Madeline and Jasper are so perfectly matched that I nearly perished while waiting for them to kiss. (And oh, they do.) An instant favorite.

- Rachel Lynn Solomon, award-winning author of Today Tonight Tomorrow

You’ve Got Mail meets Morgan Matson in this smart, banter-filled romcom with a bookish twist.

Don’t you just love the smell of old books in the morning?

Madeline Moore does. Books & Moore, the musty bookstore her family has owned for generations, is where she feels most herself. Nothing is going to stop her from coming back after college to take over the store from her beloved aunt. It’s her destiny.

Well, it was. That is, until a Prologue—a PROLOGUE!—opens across the street from B&M. A chain bookstore? On their block? Madeline will not take that lying down, even if her dysfunctional family is insisting on ignoring the imminent threat.

Madeline attempts to set her Destroy Prologue plans in motion, but the guy who works over there seems intent on ruining her life. Not only is he taking her customers, he has the unbelievable audacity to be… extremely cute. But that doesn’t matter. Jasper is the enemy and he will be destroyed. After all—all’s fair in love and retail.
