“How to End a Love Story is one of the sexiest, smartest, funniest, and most effective novels I’ve read in a long time. Yulin Kuang’s voice is strong, sure, and singular-I’ll read anything she writes. An absolute star.” Emily Henry
“This is without doubt one of my favourite romance novels of the year. It’s so smart, rich and emotional, so beautifully written – I can’t rave about it enough. I truly adored it.” Beth O’Leary
Helen Zhang is the bestselling author who can’t write her own happy-ever-after.
Grant Shepard is the screenwriter with the movie-star looks who can’t afford his therapist.
When the two of them are put together to adapt Helen’s books for television, it should be a dream come true. Helen can start a new life in Hollywood. Grant can pay his mortgage.
Only, Grant Shepard is the last person that Helen wanted to see again. She’s never forgiven him for what happened thirteen years ago. So no one is more surprised than her when sparks begin to fly between them in the writers’ room.
Their history is messy. Their attraction is inescapable. And soon, they’re both in too deep . . .
This wasn’t meant to be a love story.
But aren’t the best endings the ones you never saw coming?

A sharp, sexy debut. Fans of Emily Henry and Colleen Hoover will love Yulin Kuang's wistful second-chance romance
Everything you need in a romance novel: Complex characters, hilariously witty banter, and that spice level? Off the charts!
I was hooked on the very first page of How to End a Love Story, the absurdly delicious debut from Yulin Kuang. The chemistry between Helen and Grant is pure magic, as is Yulin's gorgeous writing
An utterly compelling debut complete with romance secret sauce . . . emotional, relatable and binge-worthy
Impossibly tender, funny, sexy, and heart-wrenching, How to End a Love Story is a gorgeously original romance - and so much more - that will leave you laughing, sobbing, and desperately wishing that it would never end. This is the kind of glorious gut-punch of a book that you'll want to share with all your friends, and reread over and over
A smart, sexy, and powerful page-turner. The insider's look at Hollywood is just as fascinating as the complicated characters who work in the writers room. I couldn't put this book down
Two complicated people in an impossibly complicated situation, drawn to each other in spite of a deeply complicated past: How to End a Love Story is moving, compelling, and heart-flutteringly sexy
Yulin Kuang has a wonderful voice, poignant and funny, she grabbed me from the first paragraph
How to End a Love Story is one of the sexiest, smartest, funniest, and most effective novels I've read in a long time. Yulin Kuang's voice is strong, sure, and singular-I'll read anything she writes. An absolute star.
This is without doubt one of my favourite romance novels of the year. It's so smart, rich and emotional, so beautifully written - I can't rave about it enough. I truly adored it.
