Submitted by the Event Organizer

Telegraph Hill Books proudly welcomes local author Evelyn Skye to the shop for a celebration of her book The Hundred Loves of Juliet!

A woman fleeing her disastrous marriage discovers that she is part of a legendary love story that spans lives, years, and continents in this modern-day reimagining of Romeo and Juliet.

When Helene was young, she dreamed of the perfect man and filled her notebooks with stories about him and about love in its purest form. But after a messy divorce, she has let go of such naive fantasies. She has moved to a small town in Alaska, where she is ready to write her novel and build a new life without romance. Fate has other plans, though.

Helene soon meets Sebastien Montague, a handsome fisherman who is her invented hero made flesh, down to the most idiosyncratic details. But how can a man she created possibly exist in the real world?

While Helene tries to discover the truth behind his existence, Sebastien is determined to keep that truth from her, for he is a man scarred by serial tragedy, hiding a secret that has broken his heart time and again. Yet the shadows of the past emerge, endangering Helene and Sebastien’s future before it even begins–and it becomes clear that it won’t be easy to forge a new ending to the greatest love story of all time.

Evelyn Skye is the New York Times bestselling author of six novels, including Damsel (which will soon be a Netflix film starring Millie Bobby Brown, Robin Wright, and Angela Bassett) and The Crown’s Game.

Erin Carlson is culture and entertainment journalist, and the author of three Hollywood history books: I’ll Have What She’s Having: How Nora Ephron’s Three Iconic Films Saved the Romantic Comedy; the biography Queen Meryl, and the upcoming No Crying in Baseball: The Inside Story of A League of Their Own. Her work appears in many publications, including Vanity Fair, Town and Country and her Substack newsletter, You’ve Got Mail.
