Heart the Lover — Lily King
$36.99
New York Times Bestseller · “Lily King is one of our great literary treasures.” — Madeline Miller
Lily King returns with a beautifully intimate novel about the messy, magnetic bonds that shape us — first as young adults, and then again decades later, when life has had its way with us.
Jordan, a college senior dreaming of becoming a writer, is pulled into the orbit of Sam and Yash — brilliant, charming, impossible-to-resist best friends who feel like a portal into a bigger, brighter world. What begins as friendship slowly blurs into something more complicated, more dangerous, and more unforgettable.
Years later, Jordan’s writing career is flourishing, motherhood is both full and fraught, and a single piece of news pulls her back into the love triangle that never fully released her. Heart the Lover is tender, smart, and emotionally precise — a story about youth, desire, ambition, and all the ways our hearts bend (and break) as we grow.
