Description

From the acclaimed author of Boyfriend Material comes a delightfully witty romance featuring a reserved duke who's betrothed to one twin and hopelessly enamoured of the other.

Valentine Layton, the Duke of Malvern, has twin problems: literally.

It was always his father's hope that Valentine would marry Miss Arabella Tarleton. But, unfortunately, too many novels at an impressionable age have caused her to grow up...romantic. So romantic that a marriage of convenience will not do and after Valentine's proposal she flees into the night determined never to set eyes on him again.

Arabella's twin brother, Mr. Bonaventure "Bonny" Tarleton, has also grown up...romantic. And fully expects Valentine to ride out after Arabella and prove to her that he's not the cold-hearted cad he seems to be.

Despite copious misgivings, Valentine finds himself on a pell-mell chase to Dover with Bonny by his side. Bonny is unreasonable, overdramatic, annoying, and...beautiful? And being with him makes Valentine question everything he thought he knew. About himself. About love. Even about which Tarleton he should be pursuing.

Critical Reviews

"Alexis Hall's first queer historical, Something Fabulous pays homage to the classic Heyeresque Regency romp while subverting many of its problems...The whole duke archetype is deconstructed piece by piece in a series of comic mishaps unfurled with impeccable authorial control." --The New York Times

"[A] wonderfully queer mash-up/send-up of buddy movies, Austen novels, and classic rom-coms." --Publishers Weekly

"Boyfriend Material author Alexis Hall turns his attention to the Regency era in the fun and frothy Something Fabulous." --POPSUGAR

"Hilarious, gloriously overdramatic, and unputdownable, Something Fabulous needs to be on anyone's shelf who's looking for a comfort read that's one hell of a good time." --The Nerd Daily

"Enrapturing...Something Fabulous is a romp through-and-through, but it's also an ode to refusing to live life in any way but that which makes you happy." --Entertainment Weekly

"This series starter will be excellent for readers with a silly sense of humor." --Library Journal

"The unabashedly gay Regency romp we all need. Something Fabulous is lighthearted, witty, silly good fun. I absolutely loved it!" --Helen Hoang, USA Today bestselling author
