I’ve explained before that I didn’t read fanfic until very recently. Not on purpose, it’s just not the way life has taken me. I’m one of probably a handful of sapphic fiction reviewers who haven’t read the legendary Truth & Measure as fanfic. When Vivian finds out, in the midst of her third divorce, that she’s pregnant, her assistant seems to be the only person she can trust and turn to, and the relationship between the two women begins to change. An aspiring writer, Jules Moretti is, when the story begins, the assistant to Vivian Carlisle, the most powerful woman in fashion, the revered and feared boss of internationally renowned magazine Du Jour (by the way, can someone please explain this name? What am I missing? Is my Frenchness getting in the way? It sounds very unsexy to me). I’m not sure I need to introduce this story so I’ll be quick. This is not something I do very often but since I firmly believe these two books should be read as one, I’ll review them together.
