Why read on Fable?
Publisher Description
"Bellefleur has a droll, distinct voice, and her one-liners zing off the page, striking both the heart and funny bone... There's a sparkling quality here, one that mirrors the starry title. Bellefleur writes as if she's captured fairy lights in a mason jar, twinkly and lovely within something solid yet fragile." – Entertainment Weekly
Following Written in the Stars and Hang the Moon, Lambda Literary Award winner and national bestselling author Alexandria Bellefleur pens another steamy queer rom-com about former best friends who might be each other's second chance at love…
Margot Cooper doesn’t do relationships. She tried and it blew up in her face, so she’ll stick with casual hookups, thank you very much. But now her entire crew has found "the one" and she’s beginning to feel like a fifth wheel. And then fate (the heartless bitch) intervenes. While touring a wedding venue with her engaged friends, Margot comes face-to-face with Olivia Grant—her childhood friend, her first love, her first… well, everything. It’s been ten years, but the moment they lock eyes, Margot’s cold, dead heart thumps in her chest.
Olivia must be hallucinating. In the decade since she last saw Margot, her life hasn’t gone exactly as planned. At almost thirty, she’s been married... and divorced. However, a wedding planner job in Seattle means a fresh start and a chance to follow her dreams. Never in a million years did she expect her important new client’s Best Woman would be the one that got away.
When a series of unfortunate events leaves Olivia without a place to stay, Margot offers up her spare room because she’s a Very Good Person. Obviously. It has nothing to do with the fact that Olivia is as beautiful as ever and the sparks between them still make Margot tingle. As they spend time in close quarters, Margot starts to question her no-strings stance. Olivia is everything she’s ever wanted, but Margot let her in once and it ended in disaster. Will history repeat itself or should she count her lucky stars that she gets a second chance with her first love?

“I have loved Margot since the first book and her book exceeded expectations. I know many people do not like miscommunication, but I really liked the way it was used. Teenagers not knowing how to talk to each leading to a decade of misunderstanding felt real in ways I was unprepared to face. I also really liked the conversations around friends changing and how you deal with that change. Overall, I loved this book and Margot and Olivia.”AmiviReads

“I did enjoy this book, but it was my least favorite of the series. I was really excited for Margot’s story but it wasn’t what I was hoping for. Still a fun read though!”Noelisss
Created about 1 year ago“Honestly this is one of my fav books this year ! It's just so good and so we'll written. It's grounded in reality and the relationship feels genuine. It looses a .5 for the miscommunication but it's still an incredible book !”Sammie virella
Created about 1 year ago“Yet again Bellefleur has written another fantastic queer romcom! This book gave me all the feels, with the second chance at love trope. I also adored that you can either read this book as a one off or you can choose to read her two other books in the series, written in the stars and hang the moon.
All the characters are so lovable, yet are flawed in beautiful ways. I enjoyed every minute of this spicy cute rom com.
