Sixteen-year-old Zoe Chen knows everything about love-at least in theory. Raised on fairy tales and rom-coms by her romance novelist grandmother, Zoe has become Liberty High's anonymous "Queen of Love, " the go-to advice columnist solving everyone's relationship problems. Her wisdom is trusted by hopeless romantics and heartbreakers alike. There's just one tiny problem: she's never actually dated anyone.
When chemistry lab partners her with charming, popular Ethan, Zoe's theoretical expertise is suddenly put to the test. As she navigates her first kiss (disappointingly wet), decodes cryptic texts (why are boys so confusing?), and tries to understand why her heart races one minute and breaks the next, Zoe realizes the gap between fairy tales and reality is wider than she ever imagined. Between hiding her "Queen of Love" identity, managing her grandmother's sky-high romantic expectations, and discovering that even the school's golden couple-Carter and Blake-have secrets of their own, Zoe's perfectly plotted love story is quickly going off-script.
Told through diary entries brimming with humor and heart, "Queen of Love" follows one hopeless romantic's journey to discover that real relationships aren't about perfect princes or flawless happy endings-they're about finding the courage to write your own messy, beautiful love story. A young adult contemporary romance perfect for readers 13-18 who believe in love...and everything that comes after "happily ever after."
