Tweet Cute

by Emma Lord

Meet Pepper, swim team captain, chronic overachiever, and all-around perfectionist. Her family may be falling apart, but their massive fast-food chain is booming — mainly thanks to Pepper, who is barely managing to juggle real life while secretly running Big League Burger’s massive Twitter account.

Enter Jack, class clown and constant thorn in Pepper’s side. When he isn’t trying to duck out of his obscenely popular twin’s shadow, he’s busy working in his family’s deli. His relationship with the business that holds his future might be love/hate, but when Big League Burger steals his grandma’s iconic grilled cheese recipe, he’ll do whatever it takes to take them down, one tweet at a time.

All’s fair in love and cheese — that is, until Pepper and Jack’s spat turns into a viral Twitter war. Little do they know, while they’re publicly duking it out with snarky memes and retweet battles, they’re also falling for each other in real life — on an anonymous chat app Jack built.

As their relationship deepens and their online shenanigans escalate — people on the internet are shipping them?? — their battle gets more and more personal, until even these two rivals can’t ignore they were destined for the most unexpected, awkward, all-the-feels romance that neither of them expected.

This book is a delightfully sweet and utterly cheesy (both figuratively and literally) romance that will fill you up like a home-cooked meal. And I absolutely need you to read it.

We've all heard of star-crossed lovers, but what about cheese-crossed ones? Enter Pepper and Jack (yes, those are their actual names. The food pun-ery is strong with this one), whose families both run restaurants that are locked in a life-or-death battle over none other than...grilled cheese. I don't know about you, but if I was going to grab my pitchfork and go to war over something, I couldn't think of a more noble cause than the elegant perfection that is grilled cheese.

Both restaurants' social media accounts claim that their gooey, cheesy, sandwichy concoction is far superior. As a result, fierce textual punches are thrown across the blood-soaked cyber battlefield that is Twitter and the subtweeting massacre isn't pretty.

Naturally, since there's every reason for Pepper and Jack not to be attracted to each other, they obviously are. If this electric haters-to-lovers romance doesn't melt your heart like a slice of cheese on a hot griddle, then I don't know what will. It's lighthearted, soft, completely innocent, and it utterly won over my unfeeling heart of stone.
