It has nothing to do with the fact that Olivia is as beautiful as ever and the sparks between them still make Margot tingle.
#Your lucky stars series#
When a series of unfortunate events leaves Olivia without a place to stay, Margot offers up her spare room because she’s a Very Good Person. Never in a million years did she expect her important new client’s Best Woman would be the one that got away. However, a wedding planner job in Seattle means a fresh start and a chance to follow her dreams. In the decade since she last saw Margot, her life hasn’t gone exactly as planned.

It’s been ten years, but the moment they lock eyes, Margot’s cold, dead heart thumps in her chest. While touring a wedding venue with her engaged friends, Margot comes face-to-face with Olivia Grant-her childhood friend, her first love, her first… well, everything. And then fate (the heartless bitch) intervenes. But now her entire crew has found "the one " and she’s beginning to feel like a fifth wheel.

She tried and it blew up in her face, so she’ll stick with casual hookups, thank you very much. Bellefleur writes as if she's captured fairy lights in a mason jar, twinkly and lovely within something solid yet fragile." – Entertainment Weeklyįollowing Written in the Stars and Hang the Moon, Lambda Literary Award winner and national bestselling author Alexandria Bellefleur pens another steamy queer rom-com about former best friends who might be each other's second chance at love… And it was nice for her too."Bellefleur has a droll, distinct voice, and her one-liners zing off the page, striking both the heart and funny bone. There's a sparkling quality here, one that mirrors the starry title. And she had the power to pull him up, which was nice for him. She was dating a bunch of 25-year-old idiots and then there was, who was intelligent, who could really see her, who could make her laugh harder than she’d ever laughed, but who had this negative side. I think that plays into why they fell in love. There’s an age difference between them, but not huge. The seeds were always there of him being a curmudgeon, but he was a softer version of himself. What’s your theory about why sunny Lily fell in love with the perennially disgruntled Hank? He did “Spin City.” And I was like, “You don’t have that feedback.” And he’s like, “No, you just have to know that what you’re doing is funny.” I talked to my husband, Alan Ruck, about it. Partially, that’s because you have an audience’s response. A lot of it was very funny and involved physical comedy and farce. I had to keep reminding myself that when I started out, I did 10 years of theater in New York. And to fire something back is exhilarating.Įven though you are firing back at Bob Odenkirk, an undisputed king of improv? You never know what’s going to come out of Bob’s mouth. But it’s not as exhilarating as what “Lucky Hank” invites you to do, which is just to not control it so much, to just let life flow through you and see what comes out of your mouth. The cameras are rolling, we’re in this cocoon of the world of the movie, and I get to just be still. In dramatic pieces where stillness is what’s invited, there’s something restful about that. What’s it like to tap into your naturally bouncy, cheerful side? You’ve played a lot of unflinchingly quiet types. Lily is bright and open, and I found myself in the preparation stage compulsively emailing Aaron and Paul and being like, “I think she eats gummy cherries!” Random, to the point where I was like, “They’re going to fire me before I walk on set, because I’m so annoying.” But I couldn’t help myself. I think Lily’s life has become a lot about forms. So I definitely thought a lot about that, about the love of teaching, and also the weight of all of the forms that have to be filled out. The other side of it was all the red tape, all the bureaucracy. My mom was a high school French teacher, an excellent one, and she loved teaching. I think she didn’t want to be a vice principal.
