Bestselling author (and hometown hero) Chloe Liese celebrates her newest romcom, in convo with Sarah Adams!
About this Event

Our Pittsburgh RomCom queen has another delicious release—this one the book she says she was meant to write and was building in her for literally years. Meet us at the First Unitarian Church to receive true love blessings from Chloe Liese, in conversation with author Sarah Adams!
From USA TODAY bestselling author Chloe Liese, Happy Ending, a clever and heartwarming rom-com that is perfect for fans of Christina Lauren and Annabel Monaghan about two best friends who must fake a relationship for their exes.
Thea and Alex have three things in common—they love food, they hate where they live, and they’re both divorced. Otherwise, they couldn’t be more different.
Thea’s never cooked a day in her life. Alex is a world-class chef. Alex resents feeling stuck in his hometown. Thea resents the town for not feeling more like home. Thea and her ex are in a contentious custody battle for their dog. Alex and his ex amicably coparent their daughter. Beyond a few friends in common, a couple small-world connections (welcome to life in a mid-size city), their lives look nothing alike. Fast forward two years, and they’re truly the best of friends. No one would ever know their friendship began as a lie…
Two years ago, their exes got together immediately following their divorces, and somehow, Thea and Alex found themselves spinning a spite-fueled story about being old friends and first loves. Two years later, what began as a ruse has grown into real friendship—just friendship, despite what friends and family seem to think. But when their exes invite them on a two-week, “two family” beach vacation—daughter and dog included—Alex and Thea start to wonder if this story they’ve spun might have gotten away from them, and if it’s led them to the last place they ever thought it could: a happy ending.

***BUNDLED TICKETS INCLUDE A SIGNED PAPERBACK FIRST EDITION OF HAPPY ENDING. All copies of the book sold at the event will include Chloe's signature. There will be no personalization at this event. A line for photos will follow the talk.
