Overview
Perfect for fans of Sophie Kinsella, Emily Henry, and Dolly Alderton, So This Is Happening is a big-hearted Jewish rom-com about work, wanderlust, reinvention, and falling for the one complication no spreadsheet could predict. With sharp humor and emotional depth, Beth Lisogorsky brings a distinctly modern sensibility to contemporary romance.Becca has always had a plan: work hard, keep her head down, and earn the promotion she has spent nearly a decade building toward. Then the job goes to Royce Hamilton, a charming Forbes 30 Under 30 wunderkind with movie-star looks and an infuriating talent for turning her carefully ordered world upside down.
Suddenly, the future Becca has been chasing no longer looks quite so certain. As workplace politics, unexpected chemistry, and a long-postponed adventure collide, she must decide whether success means winning the life she planned - or finding the courage to want something entirely different.
Smart, romantic, and sharply observant, So This Is Happening is a contemporary comedy about ambition, reinvention, and the wonderful trouble that begins when the plan falls apart.
