Ava Fox doesn't date. Or at least, she hasn't since she broke the heart of her college boyfriend seven years ago. Instead, she buries her fears and insecurities by pouring her heart into her job editing books for one of New York City's most prestigious publishing houses and running her bookish social media accounts. The carefully curated life that Ava has crafted for herself unravels when the past makes an unexpected appearance at her best friend's wedding. Dawson Hayes never understood why the woman he planned to marry gave up on him just as their future was about to take flight. For seven years, he has worked night and day to prove himself worthy of her. Determined to win her back, he designs a dating app for book lovers to prove that their love story is one for the books. But what seems like the perfect plan is foiled by painful secrets that Dawson knows only God can heal. When Ava and Dawson's lives intersect again under surprising circumstances, their chance to rekindle love is obstructed by past hurts and misconceptions. As they collaborate to enhance the Blind Date with a Book Nerd dating app, will they find their way back to each other, or is their chance at true love forever out of reach?
