The Empire State of Us
About this audiobook
What happens when the only rule is “no falling in love”—and New York has other ideas?
When sensible, spreadsheet-loving Harper finds herself facing a rent crisis in her dream Upper East Side apartment, she reluctantly posts an ad for a roommate. Enter Jamie: impulsive, artistic, and every bit the commitment-phobe Harper tries so hard not to be. Their arrangement is simple—split the bills, share the space, no emotional entanglements.
But in a city that practically runs on chance encounters and midnight confessions, rules have a way of unraveling. Between pizza on the fire escape, subway misadventures, and confessions under twinkle lights, Harper and Jamie’s odd-couple friendship starts to blur into something a little more complicated—and a lot more magical.
As secrets surface and hearts get tangled, Harper must decide if she’s brave enough to trade comfort for chaos, and if loving someone in New York means breaking all her own rules.
Bursting with sparkling banter, laugh-out-loud moments, and the kind of swoony chemistry that can only be found in the city that never sleeps, The Empire State of Us is a love letter to missed connections, found families, and discovering that sometimes the right person has been right next door all along.
Perfect for fans of smart, witty romantic comedies and anyone who’s ever dared to believe that love might be just around the corner.
