If you loved Better Than the Movies, you'll love The Accidental Boyfriend. For fans of Lynn Painter, Jen Bennet, Kasie West, Jenny Han, Sarah Dessen, and Katie McGarry.
Jess is everything Gabe wants. Gabe is everything Jess doesn’t know she needs. Some accidents were meant to be.
Gabe isn't a werewolf. He just plays one on TV. Jess has never been kissed. She just writes romance online. TV heartthrob Gabriel Wade has never met a party he couldn’t rock, a problem he couldn’t dodge, or a crowd he couldn’t play. Homeschooled Jessica Thorne has never met a party she couldn't wallflower, a problem she couldn’t stress over, or a crowd she couldn’t escape. But they both know what it’s like to lose someone . . . someone who's still here.
After a hotel escalator dumps Jess into Gabe’s spotlight and he unknowingly hijacks her first kiss, he decides she’ll be the perfect decoy for the paparazzi. If he can convince her to play his “girlfriend of the week.”
Except Jess isn’t about to be anyone’s fangirl and doesn’t care about TV’s Hottest Hairball or his Hollywood ego. And by the time she figures out Gabe isn’t who she thought, it might be too late to say she needs him as much as he needs her. Even if he wants her for real.
More than just a romance, The Accidental Boyfriend is the story of two people from very different worlds who are thrown together only to discover they’re both struggling to figure out who they want to be and how to navigate a loss they didn’t plan.
