‘Magnetic, witty, and expansive. The world is going to fall hard for this deliciously whimsical and captivating story’ ALI HAZELWOOD

‘Outright perfection!’ CHRISTINA LAUREN
Longtime personal assistant Georgie Mulcahy has made a career out of putting others before herself. So when an unexpected upheaval sends her away from her hectic job in L.A. and back to her hometown, Georgie must confront an uncomfortable truth: her own wants and needs have always been a disconcertingly blank page.
Then Georgie comes across a forgotten artifact-a ‘friendfic’ diary she wrote as a teenager, filled with possibilities she once imagined. To an overwhelmed Georgie, the diary’s simple, small-scale ideas are a lifeline – a guidebook for getting started on a new path.
But Georgie’s plans hit a snag when she comes face to face with an unexpected roommate – Levi Fanning, onetime town troublemaker and current town hermit. But this quiet, grouchy man is more than just his reputation, and he offers to help Georgie with her quest. As the two make their way through her wish list, Georgie begins to realize that what she truly wants might not be in the pages of her diary after all, but right by her side – if only they can both find a way to let go of the pasts that hold them back.
Honest and deeply emotional, Georgie, All Along is a smart, tender must-read for everyone who’s ever wondered about the life that got away . . .
‘Absolute perfection – this is the book you are looking for. Georgie All Along is a tour de force, beautifully written and full of charming characters, rich emotion, and delicious spice’ SARAH MACLEAN, New York Times bestselling author
‘A sweet novel that reminds you going back is sometimes the best path forward . . . and that planning is never as rewarding as doing’ JODI PICOULT
‘A modern yet timeless love story’ Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
‘Tender and sexy . . . will appeal to fans of Emily Henry’ Library Journal (starred review)

Absolute perfection - this is the book you are looking for. Georgie All Along is a tour de force, beautifully written and full of charming characters, rich emotion, and delicious spice. With it, Kate Clayborn solidifies her place in romance royalty
Georgie, All Along is the best kind of love story: one where each character not only finds love, but finds themselves as well. Georgie is a delight, and the sweet and tender romance she finds, in the most unexpected of places, will make readers beam
Clayborn is skilled at creating out-of-the-norm, captivating characters with nuanced finesse
Clayborn's stories always feel equally specific and universal, written with vulnerability, humour, and empathy, and this latest is no exception. Georgie and Levi each have an incredibly charged presence on the page as the story explores their individual narratives, but their differences allow them to forge an entirely perfect whole. A modern yet timeless love story
Sometimes I read a book and I wonder: how dare the author do this to me? Who gave them the right to write something so stunningly, radiantly perfect? And that was my experience with Georgie, All Along. Kate Clayborn's writing is magnetic and witty and expansive, and her characters feel as real and solid to me as my own limbs.

Outright perfection! With every new Kate Clayborn novel, I think, 'This. It cannot possibly get better than this.' And then Georgie comes along and blows every other book out of the water. It is rare to fall in love with characters at the same pace and to the same depth that they do on the page, but Clayborn's writing is so immersive, so exuberant, it's a truly multisensory experience. A classic author writing in the modern age, Clayborn is in a league entirely her own. And Georgie, All Along is her best yet
A sweet novel that reminds you going back is sometimes the best path forward . . . and that planning is never as rewarding as doing
