A minor car accident turned meet-cute sets the scene for this sweet and swoony YA rom-com that explores the depths of friendship, romance, and every messy overlap that may occur in this debut perfect for fans of Nicola Yoon and Jenny Han.

After years of self-destructive behavior, Harvey Moon makes up his mind to deal with the deaths of his parents with a self-imposed isolation, deciding no friends and all work is the best way to cope.

Enter Lisa Anderson.

She's brand-new to New York, running from a minor (alleged) crime committed against her cheating ex-boyfriend and escaping to her sister's apartment in the city for the summer.

But when she arrives, her sister is nowhere to be found, having set off herself for a Euro summer adventure. Lisa is alone and desperately in need of at least one friend to help show her around and keep her company before the Big Apple swallows her whole.

A chance run-in (literally) begins the unfolding of a summer love story with laughs, love, and tears.

A love letter to New York, this grumpy/sunshine friends to lovers stars a diverse cast of characters as it dives into what it means to be a friend, how feeling loved can inspire someone to love themselves, and how deep romance can develop from the strangest of encounters.

Critic reviews

“Davis stuns with a love story that is as tender and romantic as it is philosophical and earnest. Both Harvey and Lisa give us the most deliciously lyrical, quotable lines as they fall in love in an iconic city Davis charms into existence on the page.”—Ravynn K. Stringfield, author of Love Requires Chocolate and Love in 280 Characters or Less

“Davis captures the sweetness, vulnerability, and fireworks of meeting the person you need at just the right time. The way Harvey and Lisa propel each other into necessary change and self-discovery is truly special.”—RaeChell Garrett, author of Promposal and The Boyfriend Launcher

“Lessons in Letting Go is a heartfelt, summery read, perfect for the hopeless romantics out there who want to escape into a sweet love story, or for anyone who romanticizes New York City just a little too much!”—Ann Zhao, author of Dear Wendy
