Inescapably romantic and brimming with New York Times bestselling author Emma Lord's signature cheer, The Getaway List is an uplifting and romantic read and a love letter to New York.

The day of her high school graduation, Riley realizes that she has spent the last four years trying so hard to be a Good Kid for her mum that she has no idea who she really is anymore. The solution? Pack her bags and move to New York for the summer to stay with her best friend Tom and do everything on The Getaway List.

Riley isn't sure what to expect from Tom, who has been distant since he moved away. But when she arrives in the city, their reconnection is effortless. As she, Tom, and their newfound friends work their way through the delightfully chaotic items on The Getaway List, Riley learns that sometimes the biggest adventure is not one you take, but one you feel in your heart.

Praise for The Getaway List:

 "Emma Lord is a rom-com goddess." - In Between Drafts

"Lord (Begin Again) enriches a familiar "bucket list" premise with leaps-off-the-page atmosphere...depictions of family, friend, and romantic relationships are riddled with humor and rambunctious energy in this inspired carpe diem romp through the city of dreams." - Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)

"An entertaining friends-to-lovers story that will have readers laughing and reflecting in equal measure." - Kirkus

"Lord continues to break and mend hearts." - Booklist

"Hopeful, inspiring and escapist in the most wonderful way, The Getaway List is the joyous coming-of-age story that is a must-read for fans of the friends-to-lovers trope and Taylor Swift's Welcome to New York." -The Nerd Daily

"Filled with unforgettably sweet moments and charming characters." - Woman's World

Praise for Begin Again:

"Brimming with energy, rapid-fire banter, and affectionate theater references, this memorable Mamma Mia! retelling by Lord (Tweet Cute) explores the meaning of family." -Publishers Weekly, starred
