An International Bestseller!

Named a Best Romance of 2023 by

Entertainment Weekly · Amazon · Goodreads · BookPage

A romance novel-obsessed social media influencer revisits her exes on her hunt for true love in this romantic comedy from the author of
Set On You.

Romance book connoisseur Tara Chen has had her heart broken ten times by ten different men—all of whom dumped her because of her “stage-five clinger” tendencies. Nevertheless, Tara is determined to find The One. The only problem? Classic meet-cutes are dead, thanks to modern dating apps. So Tara decides to revisit her exes in hopes of securing her very own trope-worthy second-chance romance.

Boston firefighter Trevor Metcalfe will be the first to rush into a burning building but the last to rush into a relationship. Love just isn’t his thing. When his new roommate Tara enlists him to help her reconnect with her exes, he reluctantly agrees. But Tara’s journey is leading him to discover his own new chapter.

The more time they spend together, the more Tara realizes Trevor seems to be the only one who appreciates her authentic, dramatic self. To claim their happily ever after, can Tara and Trevor read between the lines of their growing connection?

Critic reviews

"Unapologetically romantic, wonderfully sexy, always brilliant. I adored Set On You, but Exes and O’s is the stuff bookish dreams are made of. With this stunning sophomore novel, Amy Lea has officially rocketed her way into my heart as a must read author!"—Ali Hazelwood, New York Times bestselling author

"Lea's follow-up to Set on You (2022) is a hilarious, relatable exploration of life and love, filled to brimming with soft moments, small gestures, and a clear love of the romance genre itself...A comically delightful romance about how the best love stories are found where you least expect them."—Kirkus (starred review)

"I flew through this book—Amy Lea packed every sentence with so much hilarity and heart. Get ready for some trope-y goodness in Exes and O's, including a meta awareness of those same tropes that's a blast to read. If you love the roommate vibes of New Girl, a heroine who's unabashedly 'extra,' and a hero who unabashedly accepts her for who she is, you won't want to miss this one!"—Alicia Thompson, national bestselling author of Love in the Time of Serial Killers

3.5 Very slow burn the end brought it home

If you like VERY slow Burn HEA this is for you. I was hoping there would be more laugh out loud moments. For me it just took way too long to get good. The last 1-2 hours were the best and I squealed a few times giddy with happiness.

light, easy, and happy book 💘

I love Valentine’s Day so when I saw this book I knew I had to have it!
I mean how cute is this cover?
This would be the perfect Valentine’s Day gift 🥰
Amy Lea is a new author to me, but I’ve only heard good things and she totally lives up to the hype.
I know this is the second book in this series but I had to skip the first and dive straight into it lol.
Luckily I wasn’t lost at all while reading this because each book in this series is a standalone.
I really enjoyed that it’s about a book influencer!
Surprisingly I haven’t seen, or read many books from that point of view, and it was fun to read.
Overall this book is super cute and exactly what I needed.
Definitely recommend it for a light, easy and happy read 😘
