Fable Oaks never planned to return to Fern River. But after a string of failures, here she is, living in her parents’ backyard, watching her beloved late grandfather’s A-frame crumble around her. She can't seem to find her direction, and to make matters worse, Theo Nikolaou, her ex-best friend, has also resurfaced, distracting dimples and charming grin in tow.
Theo knew it was only a matter of time before he came back. The demons of his past once drove him to leave, but Fern River always seemed meant to be. So, when Theo’s boss, Arthur, announces he is selling his veterinary practice, it feels like the perfect opportunity. He just needs to show Arthur he’s sticking around for good. And when Fable—Fable, with her smart mouth and sexy curls—quite literally falls into Theo's lap, an idea forms.
If they can convince the town that they're madly in love, it could solve all their problems. Theo can prove to Arthur he's settling down, and Fable can get some much-needed help fixing up the A-frame, a task she is determined to see through.
The only problem is, the more time they spend together, the blurrier the line gets between fake dating and falling hard.
She’s lost her way. He’s finding his path. Together, they might discover there's no place like home.
No Place Like You is sweet, funny, and heartwarming. Jillian Meadows’s second Oaks Sisters book features Fable and Theo and I was utterly charmed by both of them.
Fable and Theo have been both friends and rivals and they’re about to become so much more. Theo survived an abusive parent and carries a lot of guilt because of that. He doesn’t do relationships, which is of course famous last words. Fable is at loose ends. She judges herself for starting and stopping things, is struggling with the weight of grief from the loss of her grandfather, and doesn’t wholly believe in herself. I loved watching Fable and Theo find their way, to each other and to what they wanted out of life. Their love story is delightful and they have an easy chemistry that no amount of trying to tell themselves they’re only fake dating can mask.
No Place Like You features not just a loveable hero and heroine but a welcoming cast of secondary characters and the protagonists’ family and friends. I adored the town of Fern River and how everyone totally shipped Theo and Fable. Even though this book deals with some heavy themes, it’s a cozy and welcoming tale that is just lovely.
