About Love At First Like: A Novel
Product Description Named a Best Book of Summer by Glamour, BuzzFeed, Cosmopolitan, and many more! From the author of Playing with Matches, the rollicking tale of a young jewelry shop owner who accidentally leads her Instagram followers to believe that she’s engaged—and then decides to keep up the ruse. Eliza Roth and her sister Sophie co-own a jewelry shop in Brooklyn. One night, after learning of an ex’s engagement, Eliza accidentally posts a photo of herself wearing a diamond ring on that finger to her Instagram account beloved by 100,000 followers. Sales skyrocket, press rolls in, and Eliza learns that her personal life is good for business. So she has a choice: continue the ruse or clear up the misunderstanding. With mounting financial pressure, Eliza sets off to find a fake fiancé. Fellow entrepreneur Blake seems like the perfect match on paper. And in real life he shows promise, too. He would be perfect, if only Eliza didn’t feel also drawn to someone else. But Blake doesn’t know Eliza is “engaged”; Sophie asks Eliza for an impossible sum of money; and Eliza’s lies start to spiral out of control. She can either stay engaged online or fall in love in real life. Written with singular charm and style, Love at First Like is for anyone growing up and settling down in the digital age. Review "Strikes a powerful chord." — The Washington Post "Full of charm, whimsy, and giddy romantic tension." —Buzzfeed " Love at First Like is a fun romance with a digital twist. Hannah Orenstein proves that even though we present our lives through screens, it's important to live life unfiltered in the real world." —Associated Press "This glittering gem of a novel is a wise and witty take on family, ambition, and modern love." —Andrea Dunlop, author of We Came to Forget " Playing with Matches author Hannah Orenstein . . . returns to the world of rom-coms with a delightful story" —Bustle "Hannah Orenstein has really captured the pressures of relationships in the social media era." —Glamour "Quick, witty, and compulsively readable . . . an ideal summer read.” —Kirkus Reviews “Orenstein's ( Playing with Matches, 2018) thoroughly modern rom-com is a delightful farce. With the gumption of Sophie Kinsella's Becky Bloomwood and the social aspirations of William Thackeray's Becky Sharp, Eliza is a frustrating, adorable, relatable heroine. Fans of the Shopaholic series will enjoy the ups and downs of Eliza's mission to save her store and her love life.” —Booklist "There is no one who writes about modern relationships with more humor or insight than Hannah Orenstein. Love at First Like is a delight.” —Dana Schwartz, author of Choose Your Own Disaster "This frothy read will be a hit for fans of both Orenstein’s first novel and books by Christina Lauren.” —Library Journal About the Author Hannah Orenstein is the author of Playing with Matches and Love at First Like, and is the senior dating editor at Elite Daily.

Love at First Like • Chapter 1 • Tonight’s date was the kind of disaster that makes people give up on finding love forever. For starters, I had eyeballed his height from his Tinder photos; I had guessed he was about six feet, maybe four inches taller than me. Instead, I arrived at the bar, Golden Years, to discover that he was approximately five-foot-four. When I ordered a whiskey, he made fun of me for being the kind of girl who orders whiskey to impress a man. (It stung because he’s half right; that’s why I first started drinking it, before I developed a taste for it on my own.) He spent the first round of drinks quizzing me: had I been to this restaurant, or that museum, or that new club that had just opened up downtown? My plans to excuse myself were dashed when he insisted the bartender bring us a second round. It turned out his alcohol tolerance is much lower than mine, and by the time our glasses were emp
