Two rivals. Seven countries. Could this be their chance to fall in love? 
 
 Dylan Coughlan has just won a trip around the world. The catch? Her travel partner is a random contact from her phone. 
 
 And it's Jack 'the Posho', the man she accidentally ghosted. The two couldn't be more different, and as the trip kicks off, Jack seems like he'd sooner fling himself into the sun than have a conversation with Dylan which does not bode well for her travel blog. She has to create a hit column documenting her travels...and her love life. 
 
 Dylan's willing to do anything, even if it means embellishing her budding relationship. But as the column's popularity grows, so does the bond between Dylan and Jack. There's no denying the fire burning between them. 
 
 Will Dylan finally let her heart take flight or will she and Jack come down to Earth with a bump?

Elle Everhart more than delivers with a sparkling voice, mastery of craft, and character chemistry that sizzles off the page, all while unpacking the timely and critical topic of reproductive justice. Carefree yet complex Dylan and adorably uptight cinnamon roll Jack stole my heart and swept me around the world in this cinematic, immersive, steamy dream of a ride!

Courtney Kae, author of In the Event of Love

Elle Everhart's debut is laugh-out-loud funny, sizzling hot, and full of heart. Jack and Dylan are undeniable proof that opposites do attract, and following them around the world is the great escape we all need right now!

Jenny L. Howe, author of The Make-Up Test and On the Plus Side

From the first page, I was all in for this thoughtful, thrilling, and romantic trip around the world. Everhart's writing is both light and cinematic, tying the reader's heartbeat to every moment of Dylan and Jack's love story.

Annabel Monaghan, author of Nora Goes Off Script

Wanderlust is an absolutely stunning rom-com debut! Elle Everhart masterfully crafts a heartfelt and adorable love story while also delving into complex family relationships and seriously relatable real-life issues. On top of characters I immediately fell in love with, the book takes us on a gorgeous trip around the world-I was left with major travel envy! This romance had me smiling the entire time, even through my tears. Elle Everhart is a writer to watch!

Wanderlust is perfect for anyone who's longed to travel the globe seeking love, adventure, and even themselves. This is a soaring escapist romance that unpacks timely real-life issues and reminds us that trusting your own heart can lead to destinations unknown and unforgettable, that going away means coming back, and that the best journeys are in memories, not miles. Wanderlust is a book to be whisked away and enjoyed in a sun-drenched somewhere.

Lillie Vale, author of The Decoy Girlfriend and The Shaadi Set-Up

Elle Everhart writes romantic comedies featuring the internet, sarcasm, and lots of queer characters (especially bisexual characters because I, too, cuff my jeans and can't properly sit in chairs). 
 
 
Elle lives in East London and works as a secondary English teacher. When she's not writing, you'll catch Elle watching a whole lot of YouTube, obsessing over the worst shows Netflix has to offer, and hanging around with her son.

A round-the-world trip with the guy you ghosted? What could possibly go wrong... 
 
When Dylan Coughlan impulsively rings into a radio competition, she never expects to win. But now she's about to travel around the world. The catch? Her travel partner is a random contact from her phone. And of course it had to be Jack 'the Posho', the man she accidentally ghosted. 
 
But in order to get a promotion, Dylan has to create a hit column documenting her travels...and her love life. 
 
Dylan's willing to do anything, even if it means embellishing her budding relationship. But as the column's popularity grows, so does the bond between Dylan and Jack. 
 
Will Dylan finally let her heart take flight or will she and Jack come down to Earth with a bump?

So wonderfully queer and brilliant!

Hot Summer is chock-full of yearning, romance, spice, and competition and is just so FUN!!!

This book is like watching an entire series of Love Island all rolled into one steamy, sapphic love story.

The greatest sapphic meets reality dating competition book I&rsquo;ve ever read!

I can only hope that the upcoming seasons of Love Island are as entertaining as this is.

This summer, things are about to heat up. 
 
Cas Morgan has spent years of her life watching Hot Summer, the hit dating show that pairs together a bunch of sexy singles in an exotic island location. But she never quite thought she’d be a part of it, until her company secures a partnership with the show and Cas is handpicked as a contestant. If she does well and makes it to the finals, her long-awaited promotion will be secure. 
 
Cas is ready to spend the summer trying to win over the voting public. But just as she steps into the villa, her entire plan goes off course. She’s instantly smitten with fellow contestant, Ada. Ada is gorgeous and charming. As Cas’s feelings for Ada become undeniable, she’s torn between listening to her heart or sticking to her strategy. 
 
Perfect for fans of RED, WHITE & ROYAL BLUE, Tessa Bailey and Ali Hazelwood!
