Love in the Footnotes
(2026)(The first book in the Tales of Love and Lattes: Carpi Cafe series)
A novel by Eva Alton
Klara
Klara is always surrounded by books… and chaos. As an editor, her life revolves around challenging manuscripts and eccentric authors. But when her latest project involves editing a novel about mystical carrots, she realizes she’s officially hit rock bottom.
Gabriel
Gabriel loves old books more than socializing. As the owner of The Blue Cathedral, a bookstore that hasn’t changed since the invention of the printing press, he despises modern trends—and, even more so, the bestsellers that clog commercial shelves. The problem? His principles don’t pay the bills, and his beloved bookstore is on the verge of becoming history.
What happens when a modern editor crashes headfirst into an old-fashioned bookseller?
Amid dusty tomes, bewildered customers, and an adorable cable-chewing rabbit, Klara and Gabriel must join forces to organize the literary event of the year. But the more time they spend together, the more they realize the true chaos isn’t in the cluttered shelves of the bookstore... it’s in the feelings growing between them.
Love in the Footnotes is a romantic comedy brimming with humor, books, and unexpected surprises. Perfect for anyone who believes love can be found between the dustiest pages... or between two people with seemingly nothing in common.
A standalone sweet romance novel, Love in the Footnotes offers a quick, delightful read. It also serves as an introduction to the contemporary romcom series Carpi Café Barcelona and will enchant fans of chick-lit authors like Bridget Jones, Sophie Kinsella, and Marian Keyes.
