Three holidays. Two coasts. One breakup recovery app. Zero chance of staying just friends. Alix swore off serious. Grace swore off messy. Neither expected to fall for someone they met on a heartbreak anonymous app. But when their holiday meet‑ups stretch from Miami to Colorado to LA, long distance and the fear of losing their friendship might be the only things standing in the way of something real. Now they’ll have to decide if love is worth the leap. Because sometimes the season’s magic isn’t in the lights. It’s in who you find when you stop pretending you’re fine. Breakup Buddies is a slow-burn, big-heart, super cozy sapphic rom-com about being seen and chosen, and then finding your way home for the holidays.
Authors
Hello! And thank you for finding me! I am an independent author writing about fictional lesbians of all varieties. My writing journey began with fan faction, and as much as I LOVED being part of a community of super fans, I got tired of working with other people’s characters to tell my stories. I started asking myself: Why should we string together pieces of subtext when our community deserves well-developed main-text about LBGT people and those who love them! So, that is what I aim to deliver. If you want to know a little more about me personally, J.J. Arias is my pen name. I do have a day job, and due to the industry I’m in, I can’t write under my given name. Although who knows, maybe one day I can write full-time and come out of the … office? I am a Scorpio woman (I know, I know, but I’m a nice one I PROMISE) happily married to a uniquely wonderful Cancer lady. Together we have several fur babies of the feline and canine varieties. So, here I am, and I hope you enjoy my writing! I’m very open to thoughts, comments, critiques, and knock-knock jokes, so please feel free to message me with any of the above – or anything else you would like to say!
