Synopsis

The Stars We Reach opens Lorena Schäfer's Emerald Bay trilogy, a strangers-to-lovers romance told in alternating first-person chapters from Ivy and Taylor.

Ivy leaves Germany after discovering her boyfriend's infidelity, determined to spend a no-strings season abroad. Australia's Emerald Bay, with its farms and easy pace, seems like the perfect place to disappear for a while — until she finds out her housemate Taylor is exactly the kind of complication she came here to avoid.

What begins as reluctant proximity turns into something neither of them planned, set against sun-bleached coastline and small-town routine. The novel is the first of three linked stories set in and around Emerald Bay, each following a different couple.
