“Between Friends & Lovers is an absolute delight—bursting with messy, authentic, and utterly lovable characters. Obuobi’s seamless blend of humor and insight makes this one truly unforgettable.” —Emily Henry, #1 New York Times bestselling author
An influencer, an actor, and a novelist wrestle with the complicated intersections of friendship, love, and public image in this irresistible romance perfect for fans of Kennedy Ryan and Carley Fortune.
Josephine Boateng is known to thousands of Instagram followers as the radiant, wise Dr. Jojo, a self-love advocate whose word is gospel. But behind the screen, her life feels far less put-together: the influencer grind is draining, her medical career looms uncertainly, and her heart is hopelessly tangled in feelings for her best friend, rom-com golden boy Ezra Adelman.
When Ezra arrives at his thirtieth birthday party with Josephine’s childhood nemesis on his arm, Jo decides it’s time to finally take her own advice. Enter Malcolm Waters, the literary world’s newest star. Shy and unpolished, Malcolm would rather be home with a book than mingling at a Hollywood soirée—until he collides with Jo. Their connection is instant, electric, and impossible to ignore.
But when Ezra begins to hint at wanting something more, Jo, Malcolm, and Ezra are forced to confront where friendship ends and love begins. In a world where curated feeds blur the line between public and private, can they risk exposing their true selves for the chance at something real?
Fans of Talia Hibbert and Carley Fortune will fall for this heartfelt, witty exploration of love, friendship, and self-discovery in the age of social media—where appearances are everything, and nothing is as simple as it seems.
