An evening with Alex Aster Edinburgh West End

We are excited to host the incredibly talented #1 New York Times bestselling author Alex Aster at our store to mark the release of her captivating enemies-to-lovers romance novel, Summer in the City. Join us on Tuesday, April 15th at 7pm for an engaging discussion with Alex about her scorching new summer romance that promises to outshine the rest of your reading list.

Elle, a 27-year-old screenwriter, lands a dream opportunity to pen a major film set in the heart of New York City. The catch? She’s been battling writer’s block for months and must submit her script by summer’s end. In a last-ditch effort to spark creativity, Elle returns to a city she vowed never to revisit, settling into a luxurious apartment she could only dream of affording (complete with breathtaking skyline views, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a trendy new coffee spot to frequent). It seems like the ideal setting to craft her story… until she discovers her new neighbor is none other than tech mogul and ‘Billionaire Bachelor’ Parker Warren, a past fling from a memorable stairwell encounter two years prior. Their dynamic has since soured into a bitter enemies-to-lovers clash.

Rekindling their connection leads to a fiery night of writing fueled by animosity, and Elle begins to suspect that her infuriating yet inspiring nemesis might just be the secret to completing her script… if she can tolerate his infuriatingly opposite personality. She hides behind her anonymous writing, while he graces the covers of every major business publication. He’s a regular at glamorous red-carpet affairs, while she prefers the comfort of her familiar five-block radius.

One summer. Separated by just a single wall. He needs a high-profile faux romance to stabilize his company during a risky acquisition. She must craft a film script based on iconic NYC landmarks. Both crave a reprieve from their relentless routines and a chance to rediscover the vibrant, sun-drenched, pizza-laden magic of the city.

Summer always fades, and so will their arrangement. It’s purely make-believe. Or so they swear. Until the lines blur.
