Two girls. One celebrity crush. And a pen pal connection that just might be the real love story.Nineteen-year-old Jay Baker is stuck. Freshly dropped out of college and floundering in her dead-end job, she's more familiar with fictional love than the real thing-especially when it comes to her all-consuming crush on Josh Owen, the awkwardly endearing actor from the cult zombie show Undead or Alive. Nicknamed "Unrequited Love Girl" by her coworker, Jay's convinced romance just isn't in the cards-until she stumbles across the fanfiction account of "MrsJoshOwen."Enter Amber Martin: high school senior, head-over-heels Josh Owen fangirl, and the brilliant mind behind the stories that speak straight to Jay's heart. Trapped under the weight of her family's expectations and a boyfriend who doesn't quite understand her, Amber isn't sure what her future holds-except that it's probably not what everyone else is planning for her.When Jay and Amber begin exchanging messages, their shared obsession quickly deepens into something far more real. As they open up about their fears, dreams, and everything in between, a genuine connection blossoms-one that just might turn into the kind of love they never saw coming.At the intersection of Fangirl and She Gets the Girl, Audrey Wilson's Dear Unrequited Love Girl is a swoony, funny, and emotionally resonant story about growing up, coming out, and discovering your person in the most unexpected way. Perfect for fans of slow-burn romance, chaotic queer crushes, and love stories written one message at a time.
