Dear Jane: Conversations in love

By: Ngo, Maddie

If you could talk to someone forever, would that be love?

Can some people be easy to love and impossible to keep?

At Wycliffe College, Carlton Lancaster is very, very good at being admired.

Polished. Brilliant. Controlled. A philosophy student, a rower, a golden boy with a future already waiting for him. The kind of man who knows exactly how to be charming, and has rarely had to be anything else.

Then Gigi Le walks into his life and refuses to be impressed.

She is funny, sharp, fluent in four languages and none of them all the way. Worse, she never seems to plan on staying in one place, or one country, for very long.

Carlton, who has never wanted to keep anything for too long, should know what to do with a girl like that.

He does not.

So the next best thing is to become friends with this strange, brilliant girl until he works out what to do with all this.

Perfectly logical, in his opinion.

They spend one impossible winter talking about everything. Naturally, except what they actually want.

And Carlton, for all his polish, now has to learn how to stop being so effortless - and survive it.

------
Dear Jane is a tender, witty literary college romance about first love, identity, class, grief, cultural displacement, and the private language two people build when they cannot stop talking to each other.

It quietly asks: who in your life gets the curated version of you, and who gets the draft?

Perfect for readers who love emotionally intelligent romance, old university settings, sharp banter, complicated heroines, restrained men who unravel, and love stories that feel less like fantasy and more like a memory you once survived.
