A perfectionist bookseller, a chaotic courier and a missing book delivery that changes everything. Matcha Do About Nothing by Lily Chen is a sweet, small-town, opposites-attract romance perfect for fans of Laurie Gilmore, B.K. Borison and Sarah Adams.
He's one bad grade from failure; she's a razor-sharp perfectionist who hates mistakes...
Klara lives her life by the book, longing for her happy ending but avoiding the unpredictability of romance. Instead, as the owner of a cosy village bookshop, she spends her time amongst the pristine shelves and perfectly managed inventory–proud to be at the literary heart of the community.
Leo Fernandes is an exhauted trainee teacher, moonlighting as a courier. When he misdelivers the valuable special editions Klara was planning to auction at the village's Winter Book Festival, his secret hopes of winning her heart are dashed.
But as the two plot a literary rescue mission over delicious treats at their favourite café, Matcha Moments, an unexpected chemistry grows between them...
Can Klara rewrite her own script, or will Leo prove that the best chapters are the ones you never planned on reading?
