Synopsis

I love you, but... A love story told entirely through a couple’s text thread. (Romance/Fiction) I love you, but... offers a raw, unfiltered glimpse into modern romance—one emoji, one late-night pic, one heart-wrenching text at a time. Like picking up a stranger’s phone and scrolling through something too private to look away from, this book gives readers front-row access to a relationship as it unfolds in real time. Sparks fly when Zoey, a spirited kindergarten teacher, meets Green Eyes, an ad exec, during a boozy night at a dive bar that ends with an unforgettable kiss. As their connection deepens, it’s clear this is more than a one-night attraction—moving from flirty banter to emotional confessions, from sibling drama to shared fantasies. But when the question of kids surfaces, everything shifts. She wants a family. He doesn’t. What follows is a gut-wrenching, tender, and darkly funny exploration of what happens when two people fall deeply in love—but want fundamentally different futures. Part modern romance, part digital diary, I love you, but... is a painfully honest portrait of intimacy in the age of texting—and the fragile line between compromise and self-betrayal. Perfect for fans of Normal People , Conversations with Friends , and Texts From Your Ex.
