Ina Nedić | 1 comments Hello! Would someone please be able to add a description to the book I had selected above - The Mysteries of Romance by Ina Nedic?

The book is available for purchase on websites such as Amazon and Barnes and Noble, and the description can be seen there. If it's more convenient, I'll also paste it bellow. Thank you so much in advance!




In this swoony, snarky rom-com, a literary argument between an anxious romantic and a mystery-obsessed exchange student leads them on a chase to uncover their teachers' unethical secrets.

The last thing academic overachiever Mila Jovanović wants is an adventure. Ever since her father's untimely death, she has struggled with anxiety and panic attacks, finding solace only in the mountain of romance novels he'd left behind. She hates uncertainties, although the universe seems adamant about throwing them her way – the latest being a boy that is chaos incarnate.

When Matteo Conti comes to Belgrade for a study abroad program, he and Mila get paired up to do a project about book tropes and where they intersect across their favorite genres. The task instantly seems hopeless. Not only does Matteo despise love stories, but all he reads are brain-melting murder mysteries. How are they meant to find similarities between genres that are worlds apart?

To prove the superiority of his genre, Matteo convinces Mila to solve a mystery with him in real life. Their teacher's cryptic love note presents the perfect opportunity, and between all the sleuthing and bickering, the two slowly grow closer. But it soon becomes apparent that both the mystery they've leaped into and the romance blooming between them are more than Mila bargained for. As Matteo's study abroad semester nears its end, she has to decide what's more important – protecting her heart from any uncertainties, or chasing after what she truly wants.
