Publisher's summary

From the New York Times bestselling author of This Time Next Year, a hilarious love story about a disillusioned divorcée who agrees to let her children play matchmaker...

Columnist Anna Appleby has left her love life behind after a painful divorce. Who needs a man when she has two kids, a cat, and uncontested control of the TV remote? Besides, she'd rather be single than subject herself to the hell of online dating. But her office rival is vying for her column, and no column means no stable source of income. So, in a desperate attempt to keep her job, Anna finds herself pitching a unique angle: seven dates, all found offline, chosen by her children.

From awkward encounters to unexpected connections, Anna gamely begins to put herself out there, asking out waiters, the mailman, even her celebrity crush. But when a romantic connection appears where she least expected it, will she be brave enough to take another chance on love?

Fall head over heels with Sophie Cousens in this witty, smart take on dating after divorce.

Critic reviews

'Three words: rivals-to-lovers, and I'm obsessed! IS SHE REALLY GOING OUT WITH HIM? is a love letter to us messy readers who obsess over gossip columns and all the piping hot tea. It's HOW TO LOSE A GUY IN TEN DAYS meets HE'S JUST NOT THAT INTO YOU with all the sizzling chemistry of an Emily Henry novel, and Sophie Cousens does it best!' (Ashley Poston, NYT bestselling author of A NOVEL LOVE STORY, THE DEAD ROMANTICS, and THE SEVEN YEAR SLIP.)

'Sophie Cousens masterfully slips another gorgeous life lesson between page after page of pitch perfect jokes and a romance that builds just right. This one might be her most touching yet - that the path back to ourselves is always through the eyes of the people that love us most' (Jessie Rosen, author of THE HEIRLOOM)

'A funny love story. I love a story about second chances and this one had heart in spades. Zippy dialogue, hilarious google searches, a great cast and a delicious enemies to lovers plot made me want to turn my phone off and read in one sitting. In a wood. With a man building an actual fire. Charming, with so much heart and Cousens' trademark wit - a fab read!' (Cesca Major, author of MAYBE NEXT TIME)

'Is She Really Going Out with Him has all the ingredients to become your next favorite read: a protagonist you can root for, a mysterious love interest you'll (eventually) swoon over, iconic dating scenes that will leave you in stitches, and a path to love that's sweet, fun, and uplifting. Cousens is a master at writing enchanting, laugh-out-loud stories that tug at your heartstrings. You will be charmed!' (Mia Sosa, USA Today bestselling author of THE WORST BEST MAN)
