A Little Something Different

An irresistibly sweet romance between two college students featuring misread signals, unheard confessions and one improbable meeting after another, told by everyone but them.

Lea and Gabe can't stop running into each other: creative writing classes, coffee shops, diners and dorm buildings--sometimes literally, spilling books and breakfasts amid hurried apologies and awkward silences. They're interested, then infatuated, but too nervous to say so, much to the annoyance of everyone watching.

The creative writing teacher pushes them together. The Starbucks baristas watch with bated breath. The delivery guy assumes they're a pair, the waitress automatically seats them together, and the bus driver tells stories about them to his wife. Even the squirrel living on the college green thinks they belong together.

Despite the best efforts of their best friends (and nudges from strangers), Lea and Gabe are the only ones who can't see the chemistry. But as with any good love story, something has got to give.

A Little Something Different brings a fresh twist on a swoon-worthy college love story, perfect for readers who are fans of:
- Slow-burn romance
- Meet Cutes Galore
- Everyone knows they like each other (except them!)
- College Dating
- Lynn Painter
- Ali Hazelwood

“"This is a sprightly first offering . . . the multi-person perspectives make for a clever hook. Romance with a twist." - Booklist ”

"Consisting of fourteen viewpoints, it would be easy for some dissonance to creep into the story; however, all chapters are easy to read and form a cohesive whole. Gabe or Lea presented in the first-person would have been interesting, but the different perspectives and how they contrast are entertaining . . . Recommend for those looking for a quick, sweet romance." --VOYA

"If ever two people should get together, it's Gabe and Lea . . . The magnetic pull is so strong, in fact, that everyone they come into contact with can feel it, and it is through Gabe and Lea's interactions with others that their stories unfold . . A fun, light romance that will appeal to male and female readers alike." --School Library Journal
