From the New York Times bestselling authors of the “delightful” ( Shelf Awareness ) The Unhoneymooners . The story of the heart can never be unwritten. Macy Sorensen is settling into an ambitious if emotionally tepid routine: work hard as a new pediatrics resident, plan her wedding to an older, financially secure man, keep her head down and heart tucked away. But when she runs into Elliot Petropoulos—the first and only love of her life—the careful bubble she’s constructed begins to dissolve. Once upon a time, Elliot was Macy’s entire world—growing from her gangly bookish friend into the man who coaxed her heart open again after the loss of her mother...only to break it on the very night he declared his love for her. Told in alternating timelines between Then and Now, teenage Elliot and Macy grow from friends to much more—spending weekends and lazy summers together in a house outside of San Francisco devouring books, sharing favorite words, and talking through their growing pains and triumphs. As adults, they have become strangers to one another until their chance reunion. Although their memories are obscured by the agony of what happened that night so many years ago, Elliot will come to understand the truth behind Macy’s decade-long silence, and will have to overcome the past and himself to revive her faith in the possibility of an all-consuming love. Review: LOVE LOVE LOVE! - I read this whole book in less than 24 hours. I love how vulnerable the charters are, the story flowed so well, small twists, and it was also kinda cute! Review: Beautifully Written, Emotional, and Refreshingly Tasteful. - I am really enjoying books written by Christina Hobbs and Lauren Billings, the talented duo behind the pen name Christina Lauren, and Love and Other Words is another beautiful example of their work. This novel highlights exactly why they are such a strong and successful writing team. One of the things I appreciate most about Christina and Lauren’s books is that the romance is built from the very beginning, not rushed or suddenly resolved in the final chapter as so many modern romance novels tend to do. The reader is given time to truly experience the characters’ journey, allowing the chemistry to develop naturally, meaningfully, and beautifully over the course of the story. I also deeply appreciate their refreshing approach to intimacy. They don’t spend half the plot focused on explicit sexual encounters or exhaustively describing every detail. Instead, when the characters do become intimate, it is written with restraint and taste, keeping the emotional connection at the center of the story. This makes the romance feel more authentic and emotionally satisfying. The writing itself is beautiful, emotional, and heartfelt. The characters are well developed, the story is engaging, and the emotions feel genuine rather than forced. Christina Hobbs and Lauren Billings have a wonderful ability to capture love, nostalgia, and longing in a way that truly resonates. I listened to this book on audio and found the story itself very engaging and entertaining. The reason I did not rate it 4.5 stars is due to the narration — at times it felt more like whispering than speaking, which became somewhat distracting. Because of this, I would recommend reading the physical or ebook version for the best experience. I may revisit this book in the future, as I believe it could be an even stronger read outside of the audio format. Overall, Love and Other Words is a touching, thoughtfully written romance that further proves how well Christina Hobbs and Lauren Billings work together. A beautiful story that stays with you long after it ends. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #4,263 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #10 in Humorous American Literature #15 in Feel-Good Fiction #51 in Humorous Fiction | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 53,614 Reviews | ## Images ![Love and Other Words - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/719CLtj6ndL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Language, Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ LOVE LOVE LOVE! *by C***Y on July 27, 2026* I read this whole book in less than 24 hours.

Macy and Elliot's story has it all - friendship, passion, lust, tragedy, grief, forgiveness, that deep SOUL connection. And all of it was written so so beautifully. I'm now in search for my next read and am genuinely worried it won't capture me like this one did! 😄 ## Frequently Bought Together - Love and Other Words - The Summer of Broken Rules: A Happily Ever After Beach Read - Every Summer After --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/62758167-love-and-other-words](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/62758167-love-and-other-words) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-09-25*
