Summary
Part 2 of The Shape of Wanting series. Sequel to Before We Were Brave.
Modern AU Franchaela, with characterisation kept close to canon. All of the Bridgertons will make an appearance.
Francesca Bridgerton thought Spain was over. She thought Michaela Stirling belonged to the holiday: to sunlit streets, late-night bars, warm skin, dangerous smiles, and the kind of wanting Francesca had never quite known what to do with before.
Then her dog gets hurt, and the vet who walks through the clinic door is Michaela.
They find each other again in London, but the reunion is far from simple. Francesca has questions she never asked. Michaela has grief she never explained. Between them sit missed messages, wrong assumptions, and all the things they were not brave enough to say before goodbye.
Spain was supposed to be temporary.
This was not.

Summary
“Excuse me,” said a voice beside her. “I was wondering if you could help me. There’s something wrong with my phone.”
(...) Francesca blinked. “Sorry?”
The woman held up her phone with a solemnity that fooled no one. “Terrible malfunction.”
Francesca, still a step behind whatever was happening here, said, “Do you need to ring someone?”
“That’s the issue,” the woman said. “It doesn’t have your number in it.”A modern AU Franchaela story in which Francesca Bridgerton goes to Spain for two weeks with her sister Eloise and their friend Sophie, fully intending to recover from heartbreak quietly and in peace.
Instead, she meets Michaela Stirling.
What begins as sun, flirtation, and something that looks like a holiday distraction slowly becomes harder to define, and even harder to ignore. In a place that feels far from home, Francesca finds herself drawn to a woman who makes wanting feel easy, and honesty feel like something neither of them quite knows how to do.
And when the holiday ends, neither of them is brave enough to say what happens next.Series

Francesca wants to try new stuff like Pilates and Clubbing. Things she’s never done in her 20s because she was too focused on work.
Now she’s met her Pilates instructor Johns cousin, Micheala Stirling at a lesson she booked and she can’t stop thinking about the 36 year old woman.
What happens when Francesca tells Micheala she’s never been in a relationship and has never had sex before. How bad would it be to be teased into a pinnacle?Bookmarked by palolareader
