With nods to Bridget Jones <\/em>and Pride and Prejudice<\/em>, a charming #ownvoices queer rom-com debut about a free-spirited social media astrologer who agrees to fake a relationship with an uptight actuary until New Year\u2019s Eve\u2014with results not even the stars could predict!<\/strong><\/p>\n

After a disastrous blind date, Darcy Lowell is desperate to stop her well-meaning brother from playing matchmaker ever again. Love\u2014and the inevitable heartbreak\u2014is the last thing she wants. So she fibs and says her latest set up was a success. Darcy doesn\u2019t expect her lie to bite her in the ass.<\/p>\n

Elle Jones, one of the astrologers behind the popular Twitter account, Oh My Stars, dreams of finding her soul mate. But she knows it is most assuredly not<\/em> Darcy... a no-nonsense stick-in-the-mud, who is way too analytical, punctual, and skeptical for someone as free-spirited as Elle. When Darcy\u2019s brother\u2014and Elle's new business partner\u2014expresses how happy he is that they hit it off, Elle is baffled. Was Darcy on the same date? Because... awkward.<\/em><\/p>\n

When Darcy begs Elle to play along, she agrees to pretend they\u2019re dating to save face. But with a few conditions: Darcy must help Elle navigate her own overbearing family over the holidays and their arrangement expires on New Year\u2019s Eve. The last thing they expect is to develop real feelings during a fake relationship.<\/p>\n

But maybe opposites can attract when true love is written in the stars?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>
