When his mother became President, Alex Claremont-Diaz was promptly cast as the American equivalent of a young royal. Handsome, charismatic, genius—his image is pure millennial-marketing gold for the White House. There's only one problem: Alex has a beef with the actual prince, Henry, across the pond. And when the tabloids get hold of a photo involving an Alex-Henry altercation, U.S./British relations take a turn for the worse.

Theo and Kit have been a lot of things: childhood best friends, crushes, in love, and now estranged exes. After a brutal breakup on the transatlantic flight to their dream European food and wine tour, they exited each other's lives once and for all. Time apart has done them good. Theo has found confidence as a hustling bartender by night and aspiring sommelier by day, with a long roster of casual lovers. Kit, who never returned to America, graduated as the reigning sex god of his pastry school class and now bakes at one of the finest restaurants in Paris.

For cynical 23-year-old August, moving to New York City is supposed to prove her right: that things like magic and cinematic love stories don’t exist, and the only smart way to go through life is alone. She can’t imagine how waiting tables at a 24-hour pancake diner and moving in with too many weird roommates could possibly change that. And there’s certainly no chance of her subway commute being anything more than a daily trudge through boredom and electrical failures.

August, una joven de veintitrés años, no cree en casi nada. Ni en los videntes, ni en las amistades que se entablan con facilidad, ni en encontrar esa clase de amor que sale en las películas.

Theo et Kit se connaissent depuis toujours, ou presque. Ils ont été meilleurs amis, colocataires, amoureux, et maintenant ex. Après une violente dispute lors du vol Los Angeles-Londres qui les menait au voyage de leur rêve en Europe, ils se sont séparés définitivement, sans plus jamais se revoir. Sauf que le destin en a décidé autrement : leurs bons d'achat respectifs pour cette virée européenne annulée quatre ans plus tôt vont bientôt expirer.

Moving to New York City is supposed to prove cynical twenty-three-year-old August right: magic and cinematic love stories don’t exist. But then, she meets this gorgeous girl on the train. Jane. Dazzling, charming, mysterious, impossible Jane. Jane with her rough edges and swoopy hair and soft smile. August’s subway crush becomes the best part of her day, but pretty soon she discovers there’s one big problem: Jane is displaced in time from the 1970s, and August is going to have to use everything she tried to leave in her own past to help Jane.

Theo e Kit já foram muitas coisas: melhores amigos, crushes, namorados, e agora… desconhecidos. A única coisa que eles ainda têm em comum é o vale-viagem que restou da excursão europeia que planejaram fazer juntos quatro anos atrás, antes de um término brutal. Faltando um mês para o vale expirar, Theo embarca em um ônibus em Londres, pronte para dar início à aventura que sempre sonhou — até dar de cara com Kit.

On a furious hunt for answers, Chloe discovers she’s not the only one Shara kissed. There’s also Smith, Shara’s long-time sweetheart, and Rory, Shara’s bad-boy neighbour with a crush. Thrown into an unlikely alliance, Chloe, Smith and Rory follow Shara’s trail of annoyingly cryptic clues, and Chloe starts to suspect that there might be more to this small town—and to Shara—than she thought.

Was wäre, wenn... Liebe die Welt verändern könnte? Der Kronprinz und der Sohn der Präsidentin. Als seine Mutter zur ersten Präsidentin der USA gewählt wird, wird Alex Claremont-Diaz über Nacht zum Liebling der Nation: attraktiv, charismatisch, clever – ein Marketingtraum für das weiße Haus. Nur auf diplomatischer Ebene hapert es bei Alex leider ein wenig. Bei einem Staatsbesuch in England eskaliert Alexʼ schwelender Streit mit dem britischen Thronfolger Prinz Henry. Als die Medien davon Wind bekommen, verschlechtern sich die Beziehungen zwischen den USA und England rapide.

Quirlig, queer und herrlich romantisch erzählt der Highschool-Liebesroman der amerikanischen Bestseller-Autorin Casey McQuiston von einem unerwarteten Kuss, einem plötzlichen Verschwinden und einer turbulenten Schnitzeljagd. Chloe Green ist fast am Ziel: Bald hat die queere Schülerin die Highschool in der engstirnigen Kleinstadt in Alabama endlich hinter sich. Und zwar als Jahrgangsbeste! Wenn ihr nicht Ballkönigin Shara Wheeler, die rundum perfekte Tochter des Schuldirektors, noch einen Strich durch die Rechnung macht.

Aos vinte e três anos, August Landry tem uma visão bastante cética sobre a vida. Quando se muda para Nova York e passa a dividir apartamento com as pessoas mais excêntricas — e encantadoras — que já conheceu, tudo o que quer é construir um futuro sólido e sem surpresas, diferente da vida que teve ao lado da mãe. Até que Jane aparece.

August Landry ha ventitré anni e ha trascorso gli ultimi cinque spostandosi da una città – e università – a un’altra. Cinica e disincantata, non si fida di nessuno e porta sempre con sé un coltellino svizzero perché, come le ha insegnato sua madre, “è meglio non farsi cogliere impreparate”. Quando decide di trasferirsi a New York, non ha grandi aspettative.

Zwei junge Frauen in New York, eine große Liebe und eine zauberhafte Botschaft: die neue unkonventionelle romantische Komödie von Casey McQuiston. Die New Yorker Studentin August glaubt weder an Hellseherei, noch an die Art von Liebe, über die Filme gedreht werden. Und ganz sicher glaubt sie nicht, dass ihre WG voller liebenswerter Nerds daran etwas ändern wird – oder gar ihre Nachtschichten in einem Pancake House, das seit den 70er Jahren Kultstatus genießt. Doch dann ist da in der U-Bahn plötzlich Jane – die ebenso schöne wie unmögliche Jane.
