Jane Austen meets the 21st Century in this romantic comedy from the star of blockbuster movie, Finding Emily, Angourie Rice, and award-winning playwright Kate Rice.
For fans of Emily Henry and Jenny Han – this is a modern Pride and Prejudice retelling set in a beach town full of Hollywood movie star glam, enemies-to-lovers sparks and summer romance.
One girl. One Hollywood star. A love story that could change everything...
Lily has the whole summer before her – endless days of sunshine and friends in beautiful Pippi Beach. Then Dorian Khan arrives with his party of Hollywood movie stars. Unlike most of the star-struck locals, Lily can only see the celebrities' superficial side. And none is more arrogant than Dorian, the most famous of them all. But as Lily’s and Dorian’s paths continue to cross, she begins to wonder … has she got him all wrong?
This modern reimagining of Pride and Prejudice is full of swoon-worthy romance, sharp and witty humour and Hollywood glamour. Written by acclaimed actor and star of Mean Girls, Angourie Rice, and her playwright mother, this is a funny and relatable YA novel, and the perfect summer escape.
Angourie Rice is an actor with international feature film and television credits, including Mean Girls, Mare of Easttown, Spider-Man: No Way Home, Black Mirror and Ladies in Black. Angourie also writes, produces and hosts a literary podcast, The Community Library.
Kate Rice is an AWGIE award-winning playwright with a PhD in ethical creative process and experience writing theatre with and for young people. Her work has been commissioned by Melbourne City of Literature, Curtin University, Deckchair Theatre, Barking Gecko Theatre, Darwin Theatre Company, Darwin High School and Corrugated Iron Youth Arts.
