Praise for On Her Terms
“Spalding’s third installment in the “Out in Hollywood” series, after At Her Service, offers a heartwarming exploration of self-discovery and personal growth through the lens of a fake-dating romance…While the fake-dating trope is familiar, Spalding’s execution feels genuine. She continues to demonstrate her expertise in crafting WLW narratives with authenticity and charm, filled with nuanced characters, emotional depth, and lighthearted moments. This is a delightful read for fans of contemporary sapphic romance, especially those who appreciate stories of personal growth alongside romantic development.” —Library Journal
“On Her Terms is a big-hearted time machine to those tender days of early queerdom. My heart ached with how hard I related to Clementine, and queer and straight readers alike will love spending time in the bright, colorful, unapologetically gay world that Amy Spalding created. This book is a love letter to late bloomers, and to everyone who believes it’s never too late to get everything you’ve always wanted.” —Kate Stayman-London, bestselling author of One To Watch
“Nothing makes me happier than diving into Amy Spalding’s vivid and hilarious LA, and On Her Terms is no exception! A tender, sizzling romance wrapped around a beautiful story of first queer love, friendship, and the cutest pets around. I was cheering for Clem and her journey through baby queerness and finding her confidence with both dreamy love interest Chloe and throughout the rest of her life. A knockout!” —Carlyn Greenwald, author of Sizzle Reel and Director’s Cut
“On Her Terms is Amy Spalding at her best. Witty, fresh, and fun, the story thoughtfully explores the complexities around truly embracing who you are, and how that might change your life in the most unexpected of ways. With a fun fake-dating premise, some of the best named animals in literature, and a couple you’re rooting for from the moment they meet, Spalding gives us a romance that’ll be on all readers’ terms.” —Jenny L. Howe, author of On the Plus Side
“On Her Terms is a delightfully funny and tender ode to second chances, all the romantic feels, and finding—and loving—yourself at every stage in life. A bright jewel of a romance.” —Ashley Herring Blake, Stonewall Book Award winner and author of Delilah Green Doesn’t Care
“On Her Terms is filled with Amy Spalding’s signature charm and hilarity. This book is so endearing that you should absolutely add it to your bookshelves.” —Nisha Sharma, author of YA and contemporary romance
“On Her Terms might be my favorite Amy Spalding book yet—probably because it’s the steamiest yet! I related so hard to Clementine’s desire not to follow the expected steps of life, like marriage and kids and relegating friendship to a lower status once those big-ticket items have been achieved. I also think this book will be so affirming for all the bi babes who have ever questioned their place in the LGBTQ community—the B is there for a reason!!” —Celia Laskey, author of So Happy for You
“Amy Spalding continues her takeover of gay LA! On Her Terms is another sexy, smart addition to her interconnected tales of queer women in Hollywood and their misadventures in love, work, and life. I loved watching another of Amy’s expertly drawn, quirky, self-aware heroines embrace the potential in her work, her friendships, and, ultimately, herself—on the road to falling for her dream girl. Cheers, queers–Amy Spalding is for us!” —Mackenzi Lee, New York Times bestselling author of The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue
“I adore all of Amy Spalding’s books and On Her Terms is no exception. I related so much to Clementine’s story, and I think so many other people will too. This book is about coming out and coming into your own later in life, finding the courage to do what you want, instead of what’s expected of you, and, of course, falling deeply and gloriously in love.” —Jasmine Guillory, New York Times bestselling author
