Heart Strings Paperback By Ivy Fairbanks

£9.99

Released: 14th August 2025. 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, the tattooed, guitar-playing lawyer who had helped her cousin, 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. Lo cut him off, 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 heart. 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? A sizzling exes-to-lovers, second-chance romance from the author of TikTok sensation, Morbidly Yours! '‘Fans of Abby Jimenez will love this bingeable, fresh, and deliciously spicy romance.’ PAIGE TOON, Sunday Times bestselling author of Seven Summers 'Sweet and spicy . . . a fabulous addition to the romance genre!'
