About
A CHARMING, SUN-SOAKED ROMANTIC COMEDY ABOUT FIRST LOVE, HIDDEN IDENTITIES AND FINDING ROMANCE WHERE YOU LEAST EXPECT IT.
From acclaimed young adult author Jenn Bennett comes Alex, Approximately, a delightful contemporary romance inspired by the classic romantic comedy You've Got Mail.
Bailey Rydell is a movie-loving teenager who has found her perfect match online. His name is Alex, and their shared passion for classic films has brought them closer than Bailey ever imagined possible. There's just one problem: they've never actually met in person.
When Bailey moves to sunny California to live with her father, she discovers that Alex lives in the very same town. Determined to find him without revealing her identity, Bailey sets out on a secret mission to track down the mysterious boy who has captured her heart.
But her carefully laid plans become increasingly complicated when she starts working at a local museum and meets Porter Roth, an irritatingly charming surfer who seems to take pleasure in getting under her skin.
Although Bailey initially finds Porter impossible to tolerate, their constant teasing and undeniable chemistry gradually develop into something neither of them expected.
As Bailey searches for the boy she believes is her perfect match, she begins to question what she truly wants from love and whether the person she's looking for might be closer than she realizes.
Filled with witty dialogue, romantic tension, memorable characters and a beautiful California setting, Alex, Approximately is a heartwarming young adult novel about friendship, family, first love and the surprising difference between online connections and real-life relationships.
