All Phoebe Berman has ever wanted is a whirlwind romance. And yet, she keeps getting in her own way. She has no idea what has caused her long and messy history of failed dating attempts - the panic attacks, cold sweats and projectile vomiting.

But she does know two things:
1. She's going to be thirty in a month.
2. She's still a virgin. This, though, she's determined to change.

Armed with a romance-novel-inspired to-do list, Phoebe's giving herself thirty days to lose her virginity. No backing out this time.

She's even got some promising options lined up: there's charming new fellow teacher Finn; long-distance texting pen pal Matthew; and, of course, dreamy Jonathan, her long-time best friend and roommate.

With the clock ticking and a checklist as chaotic as her inner monologue, if Phoebe Berman wants to lose it, she might just have to find herself first.©2026 Brooke Averick Contemporary Romantic Comedy Funny

Critic reviews

Phoebe Berman's Gonna Lose It is witty, relatable, and unflinchingly honest - an absolutely stunning story about love, family, intimacy, and the space where they overlap. I laughed (a lot), I cried (more than expected), I swooned (the perfect amount), and I looked into the metaphorical camera, wondering if this book was actually about me. Brooke Averick's debut is truly effervescent (Lyla Sage)
A ridiculously charming debut filled with humor and sincerity. This one is for all of us over-thinkers and hopeless romantics who want relatable characters and grounded story telling. Readers will be rooting for Phoebe every step of the way. (Hannah Bonam-Young)
Witty, vulnerable, and emotionally astute, Phoebe Berman's Gonna Lose It had me completely charmed from the first page (Annabel Monaghan)
Heartfelt and funny. This has everything romantic comedies need: projectile vomiting, checklists, and an easy-to-root-for, endearing protagonist. A love story for the ages - or at least for the anxious (Emily Austin)
Smart, savvy and irresistible
