Read an excerpt from "The Paradise Problem" written by New York Times bestselling author Christina Lauren, which will be released on May 14, 2024.

The Paradise Problem is as sexy as any Christina Lauren novel, but there’s a Succession-esque family dynamic that will keep you on your toes as you read this juicy romance.

The Paradise Problem follows Anna Green, a messy, starving artist who married grocery store heir Liam "West" Weston in college to secure access to subsidized family housing at UCLA.

The Paradise Problem is the 30th bookChristina Hobbs and Lauren Billings authored together in a little over a decade. They're still having "pinch me" moments.
