Description

In Alisha Rai's second novel in her Modern Love series, a reclusive investor goes viral, shoving her into the world's spotlight—and into the arms of the bodyguard she's been pining for...

OMG! Wouldn't it be adorable if he's her soulmate???

I don't see any wedding rings

Breaking: #CafeBae and #CuteCafeGirl went to the bathroom AT THE SAME TIME!!!

One minute, Katrina King's enjoying an innocent conversation with a random guy at a coffee shop; the next, a stranger has live-tweeted the entire encounter with a romantic meet-cute spin and #CafeBae has the world swooning. Going viral isn't easy for anyone, but Katrina has painstakingly built a private world for herself, far from her traumatic past. Besides, everyone has it all wrong...that #CafeBae bro? He isn't the man she's hungry for.

He's got a to die for.

With the internet on the hunt for the identity of #CuteCafeGirl, Jas Singh, bodyguard and possessor of the most beautiful eyebrows Katrina's ever seen, offers his family's farm as a refuge. Alone with her unrequited crush feels like a recipe for hopeless longing, but Katrina craves the escape. She's resigned to being just friends with Jas—until they share a single electrifying kiss. Now she can't help but wonder if her crush may not be so unrequited after all...

        Starred review from February 10, 2020
        Rai (The Right Swipe) riffs on the viral Twitter #PlaneBae story in this gorgeous romance. Privacy-obsessed Katrina King, a former model turned angel investor, copes with her social anxiety and the specter of her abusive father with the ample support of her female friends and sexy bodyguard Jasvinder “Jas” Singh. Former soldier Jas, meanwhile, is nursing an impossible crush on Katrina and struggling with PTSD. When a stranger approaches Katrina in a café, she flirts with him but says no when he asks her out. Unbeknown to either of them, an eavesdropper livetweets their entire exchange, along with surreptitious photos, and “#cafebae” quickly goes viral. To escape the social media frenzy, Jas suggests that he and Katrina retreat to his family’s remote farm in Northern California until it blows over. There, their true feelings bubble up. Rai handles her characters’ mental health issues with incredible care while not shying away from depicting the effects such issues would have on a relationship. Katrina and Jas’s loving, mutual support of one another is truly touching. This sensitive and sexy contemporary is sure to be a hit. Agent: Steve Axelrod, Axelrod Agency

      • content: Summer Morton and Brian Pallino narrate a surprisingly sweet bodyguard romance. After unwittingly going viral, thanks to a clever hashtag, Katrina King needs to leave town. Bodyguard Jas Singh offers his family's peach farm as an escape. Both Katrina and Jas have experienced trauma in their pasts, and Morton and Pallino are adept at teasing out its aftereffects. Katrina has anxiety and panic attacks, while Jas simply buries his feelings of guilt and shame. Both reactions are presented with compassion and without judgment. Morton and Pallino have chosen not to give Jas or his family accents, but they have clearly researched how to correctly pronounce their names. This attention to detail is appreciated.

        Starred review from February 1, 2020

        Reclusive former model Katrina King doesn't make new friends easily or go out very often thanks to a horrific incident in her past. So when she visits a favorite coffee shop and allows a cute guy to share her table in the crowded shop, she thinks nothing of it. After all, her bodyguard Jasvinder Singh, a former soldier, is watching so she knows she's safe. But her innocent encounter goes viral thanks to a couple sitting at a nearby table, and suddenly she's the mysterious woman in a trending hashtag. When she panics at the thought of people following her every move, Jas sweeps her away to his family's home. Now Kat has another problem. How does she handle close quarters with the man she's been falling in love with, especially since she's getting mixed messages from him? Could Jas see her as more than a client after all these years? VERDICT Rai follows up The Right Swipe with a sweet and spicy romance that delves into some deep issues of mental health for both main characters (severe anxiety and PTSD), as well as the effects of social media on people's lives. Essential for public libraries. [See Prepub Alert, 10/14/19.]--Melanie C. Duncan, Washington Memorial Lib., Macon, GA

        February 15, 2020
        In her second Modern Love novel, following The Right Swipe (2019), Rai dramatizes what happens when a viral meet-cute story goes awry. After she married a famous millionaire, became a widow, and survived a kidnapping, Katrina's panic attacks forced her into a quiet life under the protection of a handsome bodyguard, Jasvinder. One day, in a crowded caf�, a man asks to share a table; Katrina feels no chemistry, and so when he asks for a date she turns him down. But another customer took pictures of Katrina and her table mate and turned it into a Twitter love story. The stranger lies, saying he did get together with Katrina, and she is terrified that she will be recognized. Jasvinder takes her to his family farm, where she helps thaw the familial divide that resulted from his long struggle with PTSD from his time in the military. Rai's lovely, slow-building romance between the very appealing Katrina and Jasvinder will delight readers.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2020, American Library Association.)
