DO I KNOW YOU? by Emily Wibberley and Austin Siegemund-Broka

 


Emily Wibberley and Austin Siegemund-Broka are no strangers to romance stories—they met and fell in love in high school and are now five-years married. DO I KNOW YOU? (Berkley) follows a couple who married young and are struggling to remember why they fell in love in the first place.

 

Eliza and Graham’s marriage is quietly failing, and they find themselves on a weeklong getaway intended for their five-year anniversary. When they are introduced as strangers at the hotel bar, instead of correcting the well-meaning guest, they find themselves… enjoying the act? They flirt like it’s their first date and share pillow talk secrets like they haven’t been sharing a bed for the past five years. The two decide to spend the rest of the week as strangers, creating alter egos who embrace the parts of themselves they thought were lost. Their chemistry is palpable and everyone at the retreat can see—this game of pretend that may just be the spark they need to reignite their relationship.



Emily Wibberley attended Princeton University where she graduated Magna Cum Laude. She now lives in Los Angeles with her husband, Austin Siegemund-Broka, with whom she is author of The Roughest Draft, as well as several love stories for teens.


Austin Siegemund-Broka cowrites YA contemporary with Emily Wibberley. His debut with Wibberley, ALWAYS NEVER YOURS, published from Puffin/Speak in 2018.

A former journalist in the entertainment industry, where he covered the courts and, yes, met a couple celebrities, he graduated from Harvard in 2014 with a degree in English and a focus on Shakespeare. When he's not writing (or reading) YA, he enjoys combing every corner of contemporary music and watching Buffy with Emily.

He lives in Los Angeles.
