Mother of Pearl: A Sapphic Sugar Baby Romance Kindle Edition

by A.A. Fairview (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.1 out of 5 stars 103 ratings

The summer has never been so sweet.

Lydia hadn’t planned to spend the summer poolside. She was supposed to get an internship in the city and spend nights with her girlfriend. Instead she’s single and making minimum wage as a country club lifeguard. Chlorine might dry out her scales, but it’s not all bad.

At least she can flirt on company time.

Stephanie is a bombshell mom with a fortune five-hundred job but without a wedding ring. She might have baggage, but it’s designer–and she’s happy to share the wealth with Lydia in exchange for some lessons in fishfolk biology.

Lydia isn’t sure she’s ready to navigate exes, kids, or even a proper relationship. But summers never last forever. Will this situationship be any different?

“Sweet and seductive, MOTHER OF PEARL is a nice, breezy read for fans of fishfolk. A.A. Fairview has packed a ton of heart into this sapphic novella.” –Morgan Dante, author of PROVIDENCE GIRLS

"MOTHER OF PEARL is a delightful sweet and spicy novella, perfect for thirsty readers seeking a sapphic, monster-normative treat." - Elle Porter author of HEIR TO THE AUTUMN COURT

    5.0 out of 5 stars Full of surprises and so much better than I expected.

    All I expected from this novel was an age-gap sapphic love story. I did not know it would be a creature feature. I did not know that it would be an honest look at how relationships start and change. I did not expect the characters to feel so real and complicated. I found the writing compelling on the story, both heartfelt and challenging. This is no happily ever after…. Even with the scales, this is a little snip of real life.

    I read this for the 2025 Sapphic Book Bingo Micro-Tropes reading challenge for the prompt Flirting via Text Messages.

    Read all the content warnings for this one. A. A. Fairview does NOT pull any punches with the kink in this (which, to be completely honest, is a big part of the reason I got this.)

    Quick Thoughts:
    - One thing not mentioned in the content warnings in this is there is Mommy play
    - If you are new to monster romance, I would not recommend this as a first foray into it but if you’re intrigued definitely go for it
    - From beginning to end this is one sexy book
    - I love that the object of Lydia’s desire, Stephanie, is not some skinny, unblemished model mom, she has curves and stretch marks and cellulite, and Lydia is HERE FOR IT
    - The roommates were adorable and it melted my heart to see two people who were relative strangers genuinely care about Lydia
    - Bringing the Sexy with a capital S in this book
    - Something that was such a joy to read in this is how much Stephanie LOVES spoiling Lydia and the gifts are not used as a way to control either partner. That line in the title “A Sapphic Sugar Baby Romance” was not kidding around
    - The author does not shy away from the Sugar Baby part of the story, but they inject so much caring and heart into the book that it avoids all those toxic pitfalls that come with this kind of story
    - So. Incredibly. Sexy.
    - “There’s FU money and then there’s f your whole bloodline money.” Hahahahahaha
    - As much as I enjoyed this and will absolutely read more of her work, this book needs another pass through with an editor. There were just too many mistakes for me to to give it the full five stars
    - This is a pitch perfect HFN (Happy For Now) story. It makes sense why it is and it doesn’t leave you feeling disappointed about it
    - The HFN ending only works because you know they honestly care about each other and make the characters make it absolutely clear to each other, and to the reader, their wants and expectations from this relationship.
    - Did I mention it is sexy?

    Overall I enjoyed this far more than than I expected to. It’s a unique world, nuanced relationships, protagonists that act like adults with everything, and it’s smoking hot. It just needs some polishing typing/word wise, not story wise

    This was so so sweet! I didn't know how much I needed a sapphic sugar baby romance in my life (and it sure had some other tropes/k*nks I really love too!) <3

    Steph and Lydia are such versatile characters and I really liked seeing their thought process and their dynamic shift throughout their scenes. It was so fun to see Lydia grow into herself a bit as well!
