"Heart Strings is poignant, punny, and preciously sweet. Fairbanks effortlessly tells a story of love and loss that makes you believe in the power of second chances." --Lana Ferguson, USA Today bestselling author of The Nanny

About the Author

Ivy Fairbanks is the author of Morbidly Yours and a shameless consumer of rom-com books, hazelnut coffee, and Hozier music. Not necessarily in that order. Living with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome has made her a believer in the importance of representation in romance. Fairbanks writes stories where realistic characters find love, acceptance, and their happily-ever-afters. She lives in the Tampa Bay area with her husband and son. At any given moment, she is probably trapped under a sleeping tabby cat.
