About this listen
Their relationship is a publicity stunt. Only one of them knows it.
When a famous former child actress meets a West Village bookseller, sparks fly and complications ensue in this queer homage to Notting Hill by the author of Just as You Are.
“Fresh, poignant, and deeply romantic . . . Camille Kellogg is a must-read talent.”—Hannah Bonam-Young, USA Today bestselling author of Out on a Limb
Katrina Kelly might have eight million Instagram followers and a multipage IMDb listing, but she also has a completely stalled-out career and some major questions about her sexuality, which seems to be moving closer to raging lesbian every week. Yet maybe she can solve both of those issues at once. . . . After all, rebranding as a queer icon is a great way to jump-start an acting career.
Jude Thacker is fine. Completely fine, so please stop asking. Has the queer bookstore where she works been taken over by a boss who’d rather sell branded tote bags than books? Yes. Does she have a panic attack every time she has to leave her comfort zone? Maybe. Has she been on a single date since her heart was shattered two years ago? Absolutely not.
When Kat and Jude cross paths in the bookstore, Kat realizes that their meet-cute might just be a meet-opportunity. But what’s meant to be a temporary publicity stunt quickly turns into real feelings for both women. As the media scrutiny intensifies, each must decide what’s real, what’s not, and if true love is worth losing everything they believe is keeping them safe.

“Camille Kellogg is a must-read talent. Every one of her books is fresh, poignant, and deeply romantic. The Next Chapter is phenomenal.”—Hannah Bonam-Young, USA Today bestselling author of Out on a Limb
“Camille Kellogg has quickly become one of my favorite sapphic romance authors. The Next Chapter is so breathtakingly tender, clever, and sexy. . . . A love letter to queer stories, queer actors, and queer friendships—three of my favorite things!”—Amy Spalding, author of For Her Consideration
“Witty, sensitive, and complex, The Next Chapter is a fresh twist on the fake dating trope that checked every one of my romance boxes.”—Ava Wilder, author of How to Fake it in Hollywood

Story
Juliette Ricci dreams of only one thing: being the best women’s tennis player in the world. She’s worked nonstop with her strict father/coach to prepare for her big chance in the Australian Open. Unfortunately, she’ll be playing Lucky Luca Kacic, an aloof player whose unorthodox style and reigning popularity deeply irritate Juliette. For months they’ve traded sly insults in their press conferences leading up to their showdown on the court, and their first ever match is the most anticipated of the season. But Juliette refuses to let her nerves—or Luca’s perfect abs—get the best of her.
