Love is a Mess
Love isn’t just heart-flutters and fairy tales, but a beautiful mess waiting to unfold...
Daniel’s routine post-school shifts at a riverside café on the Thames are shaken up by a regular visitor who always leaves doodles on his coffee cups.
The artist? Nolan—a mysterious boy with a past full of secrets and a family that even he struggles to understand.
As Daniel gets swept up in the whirlwind of first love, he delves deeper into Nolan’s complex world. But can he help Nolan face his inner demons while navigating the highs and lows of their romance?

What readers say about this book
“If you’re looking for a love story that goes beyond conventions and leaves you breathless, then Love is a Mess is the perfect read.
The most beautiful love story ever read, true love in its imperfect perfection.”
“Love is a Mess is one of those novels that stays with you long after you’ve finished, making you curse and cherish its ending because its characters are as imperfect as they are real. Sometimes you’ll want to hug them, other times you’ll want to knock some sense into them, and that’s the beauty of it.
This isn’t a fairy tale love story, but a story of true love. A love made of misunderstandings, mistakes, shared playlists, soulful gazes, and gestures that speak louder than words.”
“A young adult novel that tackles themes related to that transitional world on the brink of adulthood, often fraught with familial, personal, emotional, and sexual difficulties.
The author tells us the story of Daniel and Nolan, sharing their lives. Lives that seem different yet so similar at the same time. As the days and weeks go by, the similarities grow and the differences fade.
A story to read, savor, and reflect upon.”
