The Bookstore Boyfriend

By Katelyn Elizabeth Lighthall

She's chaos in combat boots. He's silence and storm clouds.

Atreyu Vale is all wrong for Silas Moreti-or maybe he's all wrong for her. The grumpy bookstore clerk barely talks, avoids people like it's an Olympic sport, and somehow still manages to look like a sin you'd confess twice. But when a late-night video of him singing goes viral, Trey is the one dragged into his sudden spotlight.

Silas doesn't want fame. He doesn't even want attention. What he wants is to be left alone with his music, his books, and the life he's built around the pieces of his past. Trey, with her sharp wit, white-dyed hair, and an attitude that says fight me or fall for me, is the last thing he needs. But she might be the only person who sees him-not the viral heartthrob, not the scarred ex-musician-but the man.

As the internet falls harder for "The Bookstore Boyfriend," Trey and Silas are forced into each other's orbits. And somewhere between the late-night shelving shifts, the teasing arguments, and the quiet moments when he finally lets his walls crack, Trey realizes she's in over her head.

Perfect for fans of the slow-burn tension of BookTok favorites, The Bookstore Boyfriend is a swoony, grumpy/sunshine romance about second chances, unexpected fame, and the magic of finding someone who truly sees you.
