The Woman Who Said Yes: The BRAND NEW hilarious and uplifting read from Fiona Gibson for 2026

Andie has spent her whole life saying yes. Yes to keeping the peace. Yes to putting everyone else first. The only time she ever said no was forty years ago, when her friend Sam asked her out – a decision she’s regretted ever since. But at least Andie is still as close as ever to her best friends Eva and Sam.

So when long-single Eva announces she’s getting married, Andie does what she always does: she says yes. Yes to being a witness. Yes to helping plan the wedding. But Andie can’t shake the feeling that something isn’t right. The whirlwind romance. The murky business history. And the wedding only weeks away. With Sam’s help, she’s determined to stop her friend making a terrible mistake.

But as the big day approaches, Andie starts to wonder if she’s been focusing on the wrong future. What if, for once, it’s time to stop saying yes to everyone else and admit what she really wants?
