When Katie Met Cassidy

"When Katie Met Cassidy" is a romantic comedy about gender and sexuality, and the importance of figuring out who we are in order to go after what we truly want. It is also a portrait of a high-drama subculture where bar rooms may as well be bedrooms, and loyal friends fill in the spaces absent families leave behind.

The lesbian romance novel we've all been waiting for has finally arrived! Buzzfeed has declared When it comes to Cassidy, Katie can't think straight. Katie Daniels, a twenty-eight-year-old Kentucky transplant with a strong set of traditional values, has just been dumped by her fiancé when she finds herself seated across a negotiating table from native New Yorker Cassidy Price, a sexy, self-assured woman wearing a man's suit. At first, neither of them knows what to make of the other, but soon their undeniable connection will bring into question everything each of them thought they knew about sex and love.

When Katie Met Cassidy is a romantic comedy about gender and sexuality, and the importance of figuring out who we are in order to go after what we truly want. It's also a portrait of a high-drama subculture where bar rooms may as well be bedrooms, and loyal friends fill in the spaces absent families leave behind. Katie's glimpse into this wild yet fiercely tight-knit community begins to alter not only how she sees the larger world, but also where exactly she fits in.

My favourite romantic book of recent memory, Emma Straub, New York Times bestselling author of Modern Lovers, has declared A tender tale of finding yourself and trusting unexpected impulses. Cosmopolitan has praised it as timeless, warm, and funny, just like When Harry Met Sally. . . . will inspire you to go after what you want and hold onto what you already have with both hands. Elisabeth Egan, Glamour, has praised it as the delightful, sexy, queer rom-com of the summer, with all the makings of a Nora Ephron classic.

Not only is Perri's book super sexy, but it's also a welcome subversion of the (so far) overwhelmingly straight rom-com genre. Vogue has declared it the perfect summer read, with all the makings of a Nora Ephron classic.
