Overview:
Dive into the Hearts of New York with Cara Bastone’s three-book collection, a seamless blend of witty banter, emotional depth, and modern love stories. This paperback set gathers Ready or Not, Promise Me Sunshine, and No Matter What into one irresistible reading experience, each tale anchored by a strong, relatable heroine and a city that feels like a character itself. In Ready or Not, Eve’s life pivots when an unplanned pregnancy redefines her quiet Brooklyn routine and an unexpected spark with Shep emerges from the shadows of friendship. Promise Me Sunshine follows Lenny as she navigates grief, caregiving, and the complicated pull of a guarded heart with Miles—intriguing and a little rough around the edges—standing in as a surprising ally. No Matter What tracks Roz and Vin’s year of avoidance as their shared history resurfaces, testing whether love can heal after distance. Warm, funny, and heartbreakingly honest, this set is perfect for readers who crave contemporary romance with heart and humor in equal measure.
What Makes This Collection Special:
This trio creates a cohesive, binge-worthy journey through three distinct New York love stories, each with a unique premise but a shared voice: sharp wit, emotional honesty, and an unapologetic feel-good vibe. The set showcases three couples at different life moments—unexpected pregnancy, grief and renewal, and the fragile path toward reconciliation—while staying anchored in Bastone’s signature city-life realism. Readers gain a complete, immersive experience in one purchase, enjoying consistent tone, relatable dialogue, and a seamless mood arc from one story to the next. The uniform paperback format and running thread of city-life romance also make this collection a delightful gift and a stylish display piece for any bookshelf or BookTok fan’s shelf of favorites.
Books Included in This Collection:
Ready or Not
Ready or Not follows Eve Hatch, who has long been content with a steady life in Brooklyn until an unplanned pregnancy turns her world upside down. The coming changes test the bonds of family and friendship, especially with her best friend Willa and Willa’s protective brother, Shep, who suddenly becomes a source of support—and a surprising romance. This installment balances bite-sized humor with tender, heart-forward emotion as Eve learns to navigate motherhood and the evolving chemistry that flickers between her and Shep, offering a refreshing blend of sweetness and real-life stakes.
Promise Me Sunshine
In Promise Me Sunshine, Lenny is wrestling with grief after the loss of her best friend Lou. She retreats into babysitting a lively seven-year-old named Ainsley, hoping the routine will steady her world. The central tension comes from Miles, Ainsley’s uncle, who arrives with a mix of prickly charm and undeniable warmth. As Lenny tentatively faces life again, Miles becomes not just a complicating factor but a catalyst for healing. The book tenderly explores resilience, second chances, and the messy joy of finding light after loss, with Bastone’s characteristic humor threading through every moment.
No Matter What
No Matter What unfolds Roz and Vin’s years-long dynamic as they confront the distance created by time and circumstance. Ignoring Vin’s impending move-out date would be easier if he wasn’t her best friend’s brother—and if he hadn’t offered to let her draw him. As they tentatively reopen their connection, Roz’s drawings become a metaphor for seeing the whole person she once loved and the possibility of a future together. The story leans into vulnerability, forgiveness, and the healing power of choosing to love again, delivering a hopeful and emotionally satisfying close to the trio.
