A Girl Can Dream: A Spicy Sapphic Fiancé's Sister Forbidden Romance
An epic forbidden sapphic standalone from Amazon Bestselling author A. Goswami (Author of bestsellers like Fated To Love You, Your Mom Will Do and In A World Of Our Own)
Cassie Sullivan is a good person, but Cassie Sullivan also can't stop craving sinning when she meets Laura Black! All my life, I did what I was supposed to do.
Polite. Responsible. Always the cardigan and headband kind of girl. That’s how you survive in a family and a town obsessed with rules over dreams. It worked, until my boyfriend dumped me for being “too vanilla,” and suddenly I was heartbroken, single, jobless and lost in New York, crashing in my brother’s loft and painting just to feel alive again.
Art is the only thing that makes sense to me. It’s safe, until Laura Black turns my world upside down.
Laura is a tattoo artist, a biker, dangerously sexy, loud where I’m quiet, fearless where I’ve always played it safe. She’s everything I’m not… and everything I secretly want. With Laura, I start to wonder what it would be like to finally live bold, break the rules, and maybe even chase something impossible.
But some lines aren’t meant to be crossed.
Because Laura?
She’s my brother’s fiancée.

You know it’s bad when it doesn’t make you wet
December 10, 2025
3.5⭐️ (rounded up)
3🌶️
The tension felt rather dramatic and forced. But I could FEEL this author was trying to make a meaningful story. It just fell flat. Even though the trope is literally fiancés sister..the stakes could’ve been higher & they should have! But, being as it’s hard to find any decent sapphic stuff compared to the millions of shitty MF books, I feel myself bias towards liking this. Take that as you will…
Normally I like read books with cheating by an MC unless there’s super specific circumstances (usually in dark romance). This sounds terrible but I enjoyed the forbidden sex scenes🤫🤫. The rest of the book was lackluster.
However, and this is the terrible part, it’s so HARD to find good spicy sapphic romance that isn’t exclusively rom-coms. I want some forbidden angst too! And, since this sorta delivered, I’m none too vexed.
To be clear:
-quite a few things weren’t explained
-the villainess of finance seemed forced
-smut was good but not the best
-MC cheated on her fiancé with other MC
—BOOK INFO—
-FF
-fiancés sister
-forbidden
-exploring sexuality
-cheating (not between MCs)
-OW scene
-HEA

DNF and will not ever finish
The title is true. “A Girl Can Dream” and this girl (me) can definitely dream about un-reading this book and never knowing its existence.
This book is truly foul. I made it to page 42 and couldn’t make it any further because I’m 95% sure this was written by AI. The fiancée to the brother is plain awful because she clearly hates her fiancé. She spend most of the beginning talking about how horny she is for women and how she has “played it straight for too long” (direct quote). It’s clearly written by either a machine who read the Wikipedia page on lesbians and bisexuals and maybe a few sapphic summaries or a man and I’m not here for either of them.
Looking into the author, it seems like they’ve been churning out books left and right and the titles scream AI. To list a few: “Sorry Mom, I Kissed Your Enemy”, “Your Mom Will Do”, “Not Just Another Mom Crush”, and quite a few more. Do with that what you will, but you can probably find better written plot lines on Wattpad.

2.5 rounded up to 3
This was my first (and probably my only) book by this author.
The good: the trope was interesting. I’ve read a few books where one of the MMC is in a relationship with a family member of the other MMC, and that automatically brings in tension without having to fake drama.
The bad: the author made the brother feel artificially evil. He’s always been a nice guy and was nice enough for Laura to want to marry him in the first place (don’t even get me started on how stupid that part of the story is) but now that Cassie is in the picture he’s suddenly an incel. Not credible and it’s lazy writing. It also feels like the author wants to make him less likable so you won’t care that his fiancée and sister are cheating on him. (That’s not really a spoiler because it’s in the blurb.)
The good: I felt like I understood the decisions Laura and Cassie were making along the way, even if I was annoyed with the 3AB.
The bad: There was so much I didn’t understand in this book. Pretty much every time there was dust. Was she high? Dreaming? Something else? Seriously if someone could explain those sequences to me. I don’t know if the original draft was longer and got edited without adding in context but Pam and Emily just came out of nowhere and I thought she moved in with them but then she was falling (and it was dusty) and Laura was there so were they all at Jacob and Laura’s apartment? Did they teleport through the dust? IS THE DUST TELEPORTATION?
Spoiler stuff that I’m still counting as bad because I hate questions: At the end where was everyone living because I guess Pam knows the walls are thin so did she and Emily move into the loft? And where did Jacob go? Did Cassie win the art contest since she has art in Europe?
There was less spice than I expected but I’ve been reading a lot of Lauren Blakely.

January 1, 2026I hate to trash an indie lesrom, but this is absolute garbage.
No one talks like this.
No one behaves like this.
Many people do stereotype and fetishize Latine people like this, but that doesn’t make it acceptable.
The characters are like half a step up from My Immortal, and that is being generous.

The story was good, the spice was there, but there was just somethings about the characters that gave me pause. The author describes them in one instance only for their actions to be totally opposite of their traits. Some of the scenes just felt a little too unbelievable to me.
March 17, 2026
I couldn’t finish it. The writing and storyline were so bad. I read up to page 51, but I wanted to stop way before then. I tried to finish it to write a review based off of the whole book, but I can’t do that to myself man.
March 7, 2026
Dear lord this was bad. It definitely got me hooked in the beginning, but then all of the painfully cliche and corny-ass phrasings snowballed out of fucking control until that’s all it was. Just a series of cliches.
Also, the FMCs as characters made so little sense to me that my brain could not keep track of who was the sister and who was the fiancée. I guess the concept is a little incestuous anyway, but the author was inconsistent with how the MMC spoke to his sister vs his fiancée, and everyone’s dynamic in general was fucked.
I finished the book out of pure spite.

DNF. Just didn’t read like a sapphic author wrote it. Felt very AI or straight-male coded. Look into the author, covers are AI and books are being published left and right.

wtf. did a man write this?? DNF 1 chapter in.
December 5, 2025
I think it was okay. One thing I was thinking was did ole girl pass out? To my understanding she moved out of her brothers place and moved in with a lesbian couple that Laura didn’t know. I’m imaging one of them found her passed out and then somehow contacted Laura instead of paramedics 😭😭 at first I thought it was a dream but nope. Then I thought oh maybe she fell asleep on the floor but then why is Laura giving her water, a cookie, and medicine? Then they start making out like she didn’t just pass out for seemingly the first time which is NOT a good sign.. point is.. how and why was Laura there? None of the side characters are expanded upon at all. When I hit the epilogue and saw those names I literally said out loud “who?” All it takes is like 3 sentences to give those characters a little depth. Don’t put side characters in if you can’t dedicate at least 3 sentences to explaining who they are… like the lesbians she moved in with— they could’ve had a movie night or a game night where they bonded and we learned about them while also showing Cassie what could’ve been or smth like that. Could’ve done wonders moving the story forward. Lastly, I’m all for smut. In fact that’s partly why I picked up this book. I love the forbidden aspect. But like— what do they know about each other… like besides their staple character traits.. like great Cassie is an artist but what else does she like? And what happened with the mom? Did she accept Cassie? Did Cassie stop talking to her? What was her reaction? these seem like stupid details but things like these build the story and gives the characters that depth and bring them to life. It was an okay read with 2 dimensional characters

Cassie gets dumped by her intentionally cruel ex-boyfriend. Fast forward to a bit later, and Cassie is moving from her small town to New York city. Upon arrival, she's out grabbing groceries for her brother, Jacob, and his fiancé's apartment and when she gets into the elevator, she meets and gets flirted with by this unexpectedly cool, tattooed woman. Both she and that woman clearly have chemistry going and they both know it though neither is sure the other feels that way. But by the time the elevator reaches Cassie's floor, she realizes this woman is Laura, her brother's fiancé!
Much of the rest of the book is these two trying to deny the chemistry between themselves while Laura tries to convince herself she should marry Jacob. Things come to a head when Cassie can't stand it anymore and masturbates in her bedroom, even to the point of saying Laura's name, unaware that Laura can hear everything she's doing.
Things can go in only one direction from there but how will Jacob react? And if he reacts badly, can they still make this work?
Don't worry. A. Goswami gives you another HEA but only after running your heart through the ringer in multiple ways.

1 star is already too much. It was awful. Don't waste your time.
October 7, 2025
Yikes.
That’s all I can really say about this book. Like someone else said, I enjoy the trope of the girl who falls for her brother’s fiancé or vice versa but this book did not do a good job of it. A lot of the book just didn’t make sense and it would be a long list if I attempted to write out all the instances that made zero sense. One star is generous but it’s whah I’m giving.

It’s okay, not amazing but could be worse. I don’t love the cheating trope, and how easily it was all solved. I didn’t love the description of Laura’s bisexuality it felt a bit like how she couldn’t ever be happy with a man. That it was inevitable she had to be with a woman, it just came across a bit judgey to me

sorry I can't. I broke it up. Because, where is the plot? It have only smut??? why?

Dnf so bad
March 7, 2026
This book is awful. I don't know whether it was written by AI or if the author just didn't care. You can decide which is worse.
If this was written by a real person, it would have severely benefited from someone, literally anyone, just reading through it before it was published to pick up the huge continuity errors. And it really felt as though the author was trying too hard to be cool or wry. "She looked like Natalie Portman in that film that made everyone cry." What are you talking about? Which film? This isn't the last time Natalie Portman is used as a descriptor, either. But not even for the same person.
At the beginning Laura describes her own hair to someone who is looking right at her. There are so many ways to add exposition. Not 'are you sure you like my hair? one half is red, one half is black'. Cassie is looking right at her. She can see that. And all the way through Laura is portrayed as this really edgy character and yet she's marrying someone she doesn't even like. There's no deep trauma that makes her think she has to be a tradwife, she just decides that's the way her cookie has crumbled and now she has to live with it.
The clothes Cassie is wearing changes from a sundress to a tshirt and skirt or jeans or something between scenes, between her walking away from Laura and laying on her bed.
The author also really, really wants you to know that they've been to New York. Either that or they've never been and they just want to portray it as this really unique and cool place that's not like other cities. The author also seems to never have used Uber. You don't have to pay for an Uber when you get out of the car.
I also don't think the author has ever had a tattoo. If they have they had a really bad artist, because Laura's whole leg piece is an hour old when she crosses New York to see Cassie, and it isn't wrapped. She's just wandering around a dirty city with an open wound on her leg and then sleeping on a bed without covering it. That's going to ruin the sheets.
I realise Jacob is a workaholic and stays at work until late, but him heading to the office at dusk seems a little odd. He also heads to the office after the art competition 'in the glow of the streetlights', at at least 20:30.
'I miss you' isn't two lines of text. On any phone.
As the book progresses the little mistakes and errors just build up and I can't help but feel as though the author was in a rush to finish and hit publish and just ran out of cares to give.
We get all - every single one - of the competition rules but we really skim over Jacob decking Joe.
The competition, we are told in painful detail, is two lots of twenty minutes with a ten minute break. This adds up to fifty minutes total. But Cassie says it's going to be her and the canvas and three hours alone with her thoughts. Not only does the math not math there, but as soon as the second half of the session is over everyone comes into the room and Jacob is with her. She also leaves pretty soon after that so she didn't even have to wait around another two hours for the results, she just walks out.
Indivisually isn't a word.
Laura, when she's going to have a tattoo removal that absolutely won't work in one session despite us being led to believe it might be, gives her last name as Carmichael. She is addressed as Miss Carmichael. She's then called Laura Black for the rest of the book. So edgy. Just get someone to read it through. Read it through yourself?? It's so sloppy.
'Headband still on' is repeated twice in two paragraphs, yet there is no mention of Cassie putting the headband back on after she's taken the wig off. Perhaps she was wearing a second headband beneath the wig.
You also can't feel someone clench around you if you're wearing a strap on. I'm not going to sit here and discuss why it's kind of gross that Laura fucking Cassie with a strap on supersedes the intimacy they've had already, like it's the pinnacle of their relationship, but just know I think it's unpleasant to equate it to straight sex in that way. Lesbian sex is real sex, we don't need a dick involved.
'As step inside the car' isn't a complete sentence.
The timeline from Laura finishing the manuscript for her book and her winning the award is ridiculously unrealistic. I understand this author just hammers out some words and hits print and is satisfied despite the poor quality of the work, but actual books that are worthy of being nominated for rewards have to go through a process.
I found it very cathartic to write this. I'm never reading anything by this author again.

This is my first book by this author, and I was completely captivated from the very first page. Her writing is so immersive that you feel like you are living inside the story.
What truly amazed me was how she described each character's personality. She has a gift for getting under their skin—and by extension, yours—making you feel their every emotion, conflict, and desire. I absolutely loved the two protagonists. They are so different, yet their journeys are beautifully parallel: both are simply seeking freedom, the chance to be their true selves, and to be loved and accompanied along the way.
I started this book thinking it would be just another story to read, but it turned out to be so much more. While you might guess the general direction of the plot, the author's passion for her characters' complexity is what truly hooks you. The depth she gave them made the journey unforgettable.
I will definitely be seeking out another book by this author, and I sincerely hope it grabs me in the same powerful way. This story is highly, highly recommended!

Here’s a tailored version of the review for posting on **Goodreads**:
---
**🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 A Bold, Beautiful, and Unapologetically Queer Romance**
_A Girl Can Dream_ by A. Goswami is a heartfelt and daring sapphic romance that swept me off my feet. Cassie Sullivan, the cardigan-wearing artist with a broken heart, finds herself drawn to Laura Black—her brother’s fiancée and everything Cassie isn’t: bold, confident, and unapologetically herself.
The emotional tension between Cassie and Laura is magnetic. Goswami writes with such vividness and vulnerability that you can’t help but root for Cassie as she steps into her truth. The story is messy, passionate, and deeply human—exactly what I want in a romance.
This book is more than just a love story. It’s about choosing yourself, even when it’s hard. It’s about dreaming big, loving freely, and living boldly. If you love character-driven stories with emotional depth and sizzling chemistry, _A Girl Can Dream_ deserves a spot on your shelf.

relatable love story
First of all, I love all love stories that are set in New York. Home sweet home. This was a very sweet very spicy. Very captivating story that is very easy to relate to when you’re still figuring out who you are as a woman as a person as a queer, and I loved every piece of it. The reconciliation with the brother was a little too easy for me but overall it’s a fun easy read and it’s been great to see this Author grow with each book they publish.

Forbidden love
A Girl Can Dream by A. Goswami is a sweet, uplifting read that celebrates hope, imagination, and resilience.

breathless
This book left me breathless, wrecked in the most beautiful ways. I couldn’t stop, couldn’t put it down. I read it in one sitting, lost in the characters, the story, the beauty of a love that defied all the rules. It was everything I needed, everything I didn’t know I was craving. It was the dirty dream I didn’t know I had but now, can’t live without. This book…it was…everything. Thank you putting it into the world so I could find it.

This might be my favourite book by A.Goswami. It was the perfect balance of spice, teasing and plot! Also, she FINALLy delivered on her strap on scene.
Note page 220 broke my heart!
I never knew a smut book could bring up so many different emotions.
5/5 stars 100% it’s currently 1:34 AM and I read this in a single sitting. I didn’t even move to pee. If you’re considering this book definitely read it!!

True to all books by this insightful, talented author this novel was compelling from page one and held my attention entirely. The characters are vibrant and the spice I associate with all her books is front and center. I highly recommend this and all her other books for a wonderful and very sexy ride!

Cute, spicy, enduring. I love a good forbidden romance, and this one was pretty good! I think the only thing I’d change was how fast the “I need to f*ck her now” happened. It was literally the second they met and I was like “whoa girl chill out you haven’t even said hi yet” 😂
But tbh it was bad and a lot of people like that so who am I to judge? All in all fun read!

Quick read! Characters kind of cliche and the cheating trope kind of throws me off. I was expecting more of a slow burn rather than lust right off the bat. The brother’s character didn’t make much sense, and overall the character building felt a little rushed.
Not a bad sapphic read but definitely could use some work!

It was SO refreshing to get his amount of heat from a sapphic book. Now excuse me while I go read everything this Author has ever created💜
