Heart Strings




The perfect sweet yet spicy opposites attract, second chance small town romance for fans of Hannah Grace, Abby Jimenez and Talia Hibbert!

A sizzling exes-to-lovers, second-chance romance from the author of TikTok sensation, Morbidly Yours!

She doesn’t do second chances. But he's not done writing their song.

Cielo \"Lo\" Valdez doesn’t believe in second chances. Surviving cancer at seventeen taught her life is too short to spend time on someone who wronged you. But Aidan O’Toole is determined to show her life is too long not to spend it together.

When the tough-as-nails Texan moved to Galway for medical school, she wasn’t looking for love. Aidan, a gorgeous tattooed mandolin-playing lawyer, slipped past her defenses. They each fell hard and fast. But when Aidan was given the opportunity of a lifetime—to move to London and record an album—he took it, breaking Lo's heart. Yet more than two years and a successful album later, every song he writes is still about her, the one he let get away. And every time Lo hears his voice on the radio singing about love, it’s an arrow straight to her soul.

Now they’re on a collision course as maid of honor and best man at Lo’s cousin’s wedding. Are some mistakes worth forgiving? Can Aidan convince Lo their song wasn’t meant to end?

About the author

Ivy Fairbanks

Ivy Fairbanks is a shameless consumer of rom-com books, hazelnut coffee, and Hozier music. Not necessarily in that order. Living with chronic pain has made her a believer in the power of fictional escapism and happy endings. She lives in the Tampa Bay Area, Florida, with her husband and son. At any given moment, she is probably trapped under a sleeping tabby cat.
