I Heart SapphFic Pride Collection, Book 3

De: Miranda MacLeod, T.B. Markinson

Narrado por: Lori Prince

They were the perfect couple until pride got in the way….

Gina Mitchells has a problem. The assistant professor is in charge of her college’s pride festival committee, and the celebrity grand marshal they’d painstakingly recruited has just blown up the internet with a major scandal. Messing up the festival could ruin her chance to be approved for tenure. There’s exactly one famous person Gina knows who could save the day as a last-minute replacement.

The problem? The woman is Gina’s ex-girlfriend, and to say the relationship did not end well is an understatement.

Sophia Rossi has starred in so many squeaky-clean holiday romances since moving to Hollywood that everyone calls her the Queen of Christmas. An important new contract has her filming in a quaint New England town, but there’s a catch. It’s Sophia’s hometown, and surviving a month with her meddling, relationship-obsessed mother and sisters might be too much for Sophia’s sanity to bear.

When Gina reappears in Sophia’s life with a proposition, Sophia has one of her own. It’s a match made in heaven, if only they can get over their past heartbreak long enough to convince everyone they’ve rekindled their old spark. But can this fake relationship lead them to a second chance at love?

This book is part of the I Heart SapphFic Pride Collection, which contains eight stand-alone books from some of the top authors in sapphic fiction today. Each one promises a Pride theme and a happy ending. The collection was organized by I Heart SapphFic, which is a website for authors and fans of sapphic fiction to stay up to date on all the latest sapphic fiction news.

Second Chance Romance

Gina Mitchells is an Associate Professor and head of the Pride Festival for her college. Disaster strikes when the grand marshal of the pride parade goes on a feminazi anti gay tear on his comedy show. The solution is Sophia Rossi, Hollywood’s Queen of Christmas who’s in her hometown to film a Christmas movie. One problem, Gina broke her heart by dumping her on graduation day. Can these former lovers get through this and come out together?

Best Narrator EVER

I love when these authors work together AND use Lori Prince! Absolutely the best combination!!!

One of my fav writer/narrator combos

I think the combo of these two writers and Lori Prince narrating their work is becoming one of my favs. This was lovely. Both MCs were interesting and easy to root for, and it was nice that the majority of the conflict in this wasn’t actually from the relationship stuff internally, but outside stuff creating conflict/distance between them. Second chance romances are some of my fav when done well, and this was a quick, fairly lighthearted read that still felt like it had some stakes. Def rec!

Winner

This perfect writing team has knocked it out of Fenway again. No "will they, won't they" or hand wringing to fill pages. Just solid plot, storytelling and cadence with believable MC's that you can't help liking. All made more vivid by Ms Prince's stellar narration. HEA of the highest order.
