Love as a Foreign Language is coming out in bookstores July 7th, 2026!
Joel hates Korea. When he agreed to teach there in an effort to pay off his student loans faster, he had no idea how much he’d hate it. He can’t wait to go back home to Canada and return to normal life. His year-long contract is almost over and then he’ll finally be free. But Joel’s life is about to go from dark dreams to cotton-candy kisses, and it’s all because of Hana, the new school secretary. Maybe this job isn’t so bad with his dream girl beside him. (If he works up the nerve to talk to her, that is.) The very sight of Hana sends Joel flying straight to cloud nine, but won’t another year in Korea send him crashing back down?
