The Fiancée Farce by Alexandria Bellefleur, narrated by Lauren Sweet

The Fiancée Farce by Alexandria Bellefleur

Excellent narration for a really fun romcom Tansy Adams has been lying to her family for months about dating a woman called Gemma. The name didn’t come out of nowhere, a romance novel model was the inspiration. Things get interesting when said model dances into Tansy’s life at her step-cousin’s wedding. Gemma turns out to […]

Stars Collide by Rachel Lacey

The Fiancée Farce by Alexandria Bellefleur

Rachel Lacey’s books always make me happy At thirty-six, Eden Sands is in a slump. And yes, she’s a superstar but she’s also relatively recently divorced, her shows don’t sell out in a few minutes anymore and her last album is doing okay. Okay isn’t enough and while Eden is mostly okay too, it’s not […]

Sucker Punch – Pretty Devils (Wrestling Girls #2) by Kayla Faber

The Fiancée Farce by Alexandria Bellefleur

A feel-good romance with sweat and bruises Liv is pretty desperate: she hates her job as a nightclub waitress and her home feels like a prison, with her alcoholic and gambling-addict mother spending all Liv’s hard-earned money. On a whim, she tries out for a spot as a wrestler at the Beatcave and lands a […]

Live It Out by Jenn Alexander

The Fiancée Farce by Alexandria Bellefleur

A beautifully-written and very emotional romance I really needed to cry when I read this book and it delivered. Sad tears, happy tears. All the feels. The Song of the Sea is one of my favourite books and I knew I could count on Jenn Alexander to write a story that would be both terribly […]

The Last of the Loudens by Robin Alexander, narrated by Lori Prince

The Last of the Loudens by Robin Alexander

A hilarious and quirky romance Robin Alexander is the author of more than thirty Sapphic novels which are gradually being released on audio mostly narrated by Lori Prince. The Last of the Loudens was originally published in 2016. Taryn Louden has inherited her father’s family home which needs an urgent renovation. Vicky Andre is the sexy contractor […]

Homebodies by Tembe Denton-Hurst, narrated by Marcella Cox

The Fiancée Farce by Alexandria Bellefleur

A very powerful debut As is too often the case (why?), the synopsis gives too much away, so do yourself a favour and don’t read it. Or forget it. Because if you expect it to be only the start of the story, you’ll be disappointed, the main events are all there. On the surface, Mickey […]

Hotshot by Clare Lydon

Hotshot by Clare Lydon

Another entertaining romance by Clare Lydon I’ve listened to Clare Lydon talking about this book in the podcast Lesbians Who Write which she co-hosts with TB Markinson. Since then, I was intrigued by this novel. Sports is one of the favourite tropes for Sapphic readers and with the Women’s Soccer (Football in the UK) World […]

Sizzle Reel by Carlyn Greenwald

The Fiancée Farce by Alexandria Bellefleur

Hilariously relatable Relationships aren’t easy. Realizing you’re not straight isn’t easy. Coming out isn’t easy, falling in love isn’t easy, distinguishing between lust and love and what’s exciting because it’s new and what’s exciting in itself isn’t easy. It’s all a mess and it can be scary and exhausting but damn is it worth it […]

Charm City by Monica Mccallan, narrated by Lori Prince

Charm City by Monica Mccallan

An entertaining and low-angst romance Monica McCallan’s stories are like warm hugs to the soul, they are normally low-angst, steamy, funny, and sweet, all in a well-written package. However, I have to admit that it took me ages to engage with Charm City as I couldn’t connect with one of the mains. So much so […]
