Hello Stranger: A Novel

The glorious novel from the beloved author whose bright, hopelessly romantic New York Times bestsellers have been called My perfect 10 of a book (Emily Henry) and cheered for their speedy pacing and sexual tension for miles (People). Love may be blind. But what if . . . what you see isn't what you get? Its all starting to come together for struggling artist Sadie Montgomery. She was just named a finalist in the national portrait competition of her dreams. But when she winds up with a rare, but real, condition where human faces look like jumbled puzzle pieces . . . it is, to say the least, not good. With only a few weeks to paint the best portrait of her entire life, Sadie will do anything to reverse her condition and get back to work, but its anyones guess when (or even if) that'll happen. Enter her dogs charming veterinarian (who may or may not be Sadies daydream fianc), and her bowling-jacket-wearing, Vespa-riding neighbor (who she cant seem to stay away from)both vying for her attention and adding to the chaos. Its a lot, but that doesnt mean its bad. Because the truth is, seeing the world differently has its upsides. And love has an undeniable way of giving us courage. And the best way of looking is always, always with the heart. "With its emphasis on its central character, combined with its swoony romance, Hello Stranger is a hit. Sadie is everything you could want in a protagonist the right amount of quirky, sunshiney and stubborn, and the men shes in love with are equally fascinating. All the side characters provide humor and comfort, and even those characters who you arent really supposed to like are annoyingly intriguing and captivating. Center created a brilliant cast of characters, set to a plot thats sure to keep you reading." --Michigan Daily
