Wren Delacroix runs The Marginalia, a romance bookshop on Savannah's Bookshop Row. Across the street, Gus runs a literary bookshop that calls romance formula. A chain-store buyout threatens them both, and the only way to survive is a festival they have to win together or lose everything. Rivals to lovers, bookish to the core, with no miscommunication breakup: the trouble comes from real stakes, and both leads keep their work and their agency.
