Heartstopper meets Eat Pray Love in this swoony, spicy, second-chance romance from USA Today bestselling author Adib Khorram about two former classmates unexpectedly reuniting in Italy.

"It Had To Be Him is a swoony, sunny, sexy treat--hot single dads, not-so-unrequited crushes ... Adib Khorram spins a story of yearning, learning, and about how the sweetest fresh starts come from second chances." ―Julie Murphy & Sierra Simone, bestselling co-authors of A Merry Little Meet Cute

Ramin Yazdani's marriage proposal has just gone bottoms up: his ex dumped him in public for being boring. Bent on proving him wrong, Ramin books a spontaneous solo trip to Italy. When he runs into his high school crush while in a gelateria, however, his resolve to reinvent himself is put to the test.

Noah Bartlett's in a rut. Since his divorce, he's become a bit of a homebody. So when his ex-wife insists he join her and their son on an Italian holiday, Noah reluctantly agrees. But his reticence turns to excitement when he sees his former classmate, who's aged just like a fine wine. As a teenager, Ramin fascinated him--and since Noah now knows that fascination was code for crush--all those feelings are quick to come rushing back.

Soon Ramin and Noah are tumbling headfirst into a relationship. Only Ramin fears Noah's feelings won't last without Ramin's adventurous new persona--and Noah's not sure he can be the supportive partner Ramin deserves.

With the days counting down to the end of their trip, can their love last without the magic of Italy?

"Adib Khorram has penned a lush second chance romance set in Italy and filled with delicious food, decadent wine pairings, and plenty of steamy interludes. You'll want to curl up with a glass of Italian red to savor this sensual and emotionally charged romance." ―Alexis Daria, bestselling author of You Had Me at Hola

"A perfect combination of funny, tender, and sexy moments makesIt Had to Be Him absolutely shine. Ramin and Noah have my heart. This book is so lovely I wish I could read it again for the first time!" ―Mia Sosa, USA Today bestselling author of When Javi Dumped Mari
