Rezensionen

"Bellefleur leans gently into the opposites attract trope in this playful contemporary romance. . . The romance itself is swoon-worthy and Bellefleur sensitively handles both protagonists' bisexuality. The results are both incendiary and super sweet." - Publishers Weekly

"Bellefleur's knack for snappy dialogue and engaging character dynamics is on display. . . An irresistible, banter-filled romance." - Kirkus Reviews

"Bellefleur has a droll, distinct voice, and her one-liners zing off the page, striking both the heart and funny bone. She has a gift for comedy, possessing more style and panache than a debut writer has any right to... 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 on Written in the Stars

"The Fiancée Farce is romcom at its absolute finest. A down on her luck heroine who invents a fake girlfriend? A fake girlfriend who turns up looking for a marriage of convenience to land her inheritance? Set the whole thing in a cozy bookstore? Alexandria Bellefleur delivers funny, sexy, romance reader catnip. No notes." - Sarah MacLean, New York Times bestselling author

"This zippy Sapphic rom-com from Bellefleur (Count Your Lucky Stars) features slow-burn romance, a steamy marriage-of-convenience, and a profusion of Taylor Swift references. . . Bellefleur's snappy prose is perfect for the banter between Tansy and Gemma, and it's delightful to watch the tension build between them. . . deeply satisfying." - Publishers Weekly on The Fiancée Farce

"Outrageously clever and unbearably sexy, The Fiancée Farce is the sapphic romance of my dreams. Like every Alexandria Bellefleur book, I was hooked from page one and couldn't put it down. With delicious prose and gripping storytelling, Bellefleur is a rom-com master, and I'll read anything she writes." - Mazey Eddings, author of Lizzie Blake's Best Mistake

"Alexandria Bellefleur is an author to watch. Her writing is joyful and heartfelt, and her voice sparkles with a delightful mix of wit, humor, and good-natured sarcasm. I can't wait to see how she wows us next!" - Mia Sosa, USA Today bestselling author of The Worst Best Man

"Everything I want from a romcom: fun, whimsical, sexy." - Talia Hibbert, New York Times bestselling author on Written in the Stars

"Alexandria Bellefleur has gifted us with a gorgeously bright and vivacious romance in The Fiancée Farce-bringing together a beauty and a wallflower, a marriage of convenience, and intensely sexy, swoony, sapphic vibes. Mischievous dogs, glitter-infused capers, and a delicious moment in an old library round out this rom-com perfection, and make it a must read for 2023!" - Sierra Simone, USA Today bestselling author

"This book is a delight." - New York Times Book Review on Written in the Stars

"This extremely sexy rom-com is full of lingering glances and fiery love scenes. . . Bellefleur also makes the sincere observation that the person who sees you the clearest is often the person who scares you the most. Thoughtful conversations about relationships balance the comedy in this ultra-satisfying read." - BookPage

"A sharp and witty novel that revels in soapy romance tropes while introducing a large cast of characters in Bellefleur's ("Written in the Stars" series) familiar Seattle setting." - Library Journal

"Bellefleur continues on her dazzling trajectory with another completely charming, achingly romantic love story. This tale not only delivers an abundance of wit-infused writing and some scorchingly hot love scenes, it also gracefully illuminates the importance in life of family and the friends we hold most dear." - Booklist (starred review) on Count Your Lucky Stars

"A warm hug of a queer contemporary romance with sparkling prose, heartfelt dialogue, and delicious dirty talk." - Library Journal (starred review) on Count Your Lucky Stars
