Instead of trying to find your perfect match in a dating app, we bring you the “Author-Reader Match" where we introduce you to authors you may fall in love with. It's our great pleasure to present Juliette Fay!

 

Writes:

Juliette writes bestselling, award-winning novels known for being book-club favorites. Her stories will make you laugh, cry, think, and want to discuss them with your best booklover pals. The author of seven novels and counting, she writes both contemporary and historical fiction and loves to Zoom-chat with clubs who choose her books.

 

About:

Juliette is the mother of four children and countless plants in a yard that often gets the best of her. When not trying to keep track of her kids, she can often be found gardening while listening to audiobooks, dirt-smeared and happy (or crying if it’s that kind of book). She’s been happily married for over 30 years and credits her supportive and adorably quirky husband with her ability to write about abiding love and emotional intimacy.

 

What I’m looking for in my ideal reader match:

  • Loves a deep dive into family, friendship, parenting, and partnership.
  • Enjoys stories that always include romance but aren’t quite romance novels.
  • Wants to see the main characters grow in important ways.

 

What to expect if we’re compatible:

  • Characters who come to life in all their flawed yet lovable glory.
  • Stories with a little “added nutritional value” – you’ll learn something but in an entertaining way.
  • Endings that aren’t necessarily tied up with a big pink bow but are satisfying all the same.
  • Sleep loss from staying up late to read one more chapter and then another.

THE HALF OF IT by Juliette Fay

The Half of It

One perfect night. Forty years of buried hurt. One chance to make it right. Can the past ever be fixed? With humor, heart, and grace, USA Today bestselling author Juliette Fay delivers an immensely satisfying page-turner, perfect for fans of Josie Silver and Jojo Moyes.

“I’m wondering if we can be friends again.”

When fifty-eight-year-old Helen Spencer reviews her life, what she sees are the mistakes. Over the years, things seemed to go sideways incrementally, one little wrong decision at a time. She can even pinpoint where it all started to go awry: a wonderous, romantic night in the woods her senior year of high school with a boy named Cal Crosby. A night she would soon work hard to forget.

Forty years, one marriage, three children, and one grandbaby later, suddenly there he is—Cal (expletive) Crosby!—right in front of her with grandchildren of his own in tow. The chance to finally get some answers and sort out what happened is within reach. But Helen would much prefer to keep that night and all the fury, hurt, and sorrow that followed tightly locked away where she doesn’t have to face it.

Cal Crosby, however, is ready to talk. He has no idea of the can of worms he’s about to open. In fact, he doesn’t know the half of it.

A warm, poignant, propulsive novel about settling the past, rekindling lost friendships, and rediscovering love when you least expect it.
