Listen to Your Heart, a charming YA rom-com by Kasie West, follows Kate Bailey, a girl who prefers solitude on the lake over socialising. When her best friend Alana convinces her to co-host their school's podcast, Kate unexpectedly shines in the role. Things get complicated when an anonymous caller seeks advice about a crush, leading Kate to suspect both the caller and crush's identities. As Kate navigates her feelings for Diego and supports her friend, she learns that offering advice is easier than following it herself. This heartwarming tale of secrets, love, and friendship is inspired by Sleepless in Seattle and perfect for fans of Morgan Matson and Jenny Han.

Perfect for fans of Morgan Matson and Jenny Han, this latest from YA contemporary queen Kasie West is an adorable rom-com loosely inspired by Sleepless in Seattle.

Talking to other people isn't Kate Bailey's favourite activity. She'd much rather be out on the lake, soaking up the solitude and sunshine. So when her best friend, Alana, convinces Kate to join their high school's podcast, Kate is not expecting to be chosen as the host. Now she'll have to answer calls and give advice on the air? Impossible.

But to Kate's surprise, she turns out to be pretty good at the hosting gig. Then the podcast gets in a call from an anonymous guy, asking for advice about his unnamed crush. Kate is pretty sure that the caller is gorgeous Diego Martinez, and even surer that the girl in question is Alana. Kate is excited for her friend... until Kate herself starts to develop feelings for Diego.

Suddenly, Kate finds that while doling out wisdom to others may be easy, asking for help is tougher than it looks, and following your own advice is even harder. Kasie West's adorable story of secrets, love, and friendship is sure to win over hearts everywhere.
