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.
©2025 Camille Kellogg (P)2025 Random House AudioCritic reviews
“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
“Riffing on rom-com classic Notting Hill, Kellogg (Just as You Are) offers up a sweet sapphic romance about growing into oneself. . . . There’s a gentle coming-of-age feel to the heroines’ arcs and the largely queer supporting cast adds heart. This is a charmer.”—Publishers Weekly

Story
Like naughty and nice, Mariah and Ellie are complete opposites. Small-time actress Ellie is thrilled to be back on set of a cozy holiday film, while makeup artist Mariah only views the low-budget project as a stepping stone on her way to more serious movies. The pair definitely don't hit it off when they're introduced, but if they want to survive the summer heat—and Mariah's stifling Canadian hometown—they've got to keep it professional. Luckily, holiday cheer is Ellie's specialty, and she's determined to win stubborn Mariah over.
