This is my first Fleetwood Mac / NickVie fanfiction, and also the first story I post on Wattpad!
The title is inspired by the Italian movie from 1953 titled "Bread, Love and Dreams". Thanks to my favorite FM fandom writers PaperGypsyDreams and Ava_BellaDonna for being my inspiration to finally write this! Also, a few shots of Courvoisier were involved in the making of this fanfic. :)
This short story is set in the 80s: there was no such thing as cellphones back then, so instead of the internet people would have their fanfics published in "fanzine", also known as magazines made by fans, for fans, and dedicated to artists.
Mick Fleetwood finds a copy that his daughter Amy's friends forgot home, and brings it to Lindsey Buckingham's home studio where everyone starts reading.
The content of a particular fanfiction will open their eyes and change their lives forever....
Enjoy! :)

Decades
Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks are the love story for the ages. Often tragic, always passionate, the magnetic pull and electricity between these two will always pull them together and perhaps push them apart. This story touches on all of their decades together and what might become of these two star-crossed lovers. This story took on a life of its own and is much longer than I'd originally imagined it would be. That said, it's for the die-hard Buckingham Nicks fans since it is a bit of a time commitment. If you decide to give it a go, I hope you'll enjoy reading it as much as I did writing it! Cheers!Complete
Everybody Loves You
On Monday, January 9, 2023, the four remaining members of Fleetwood Mac gather in Malibu at aa private memorial service for Christine McVie, whose death six weeks earlier shook them all to their core...particularly Stevie Nicks. As Stevie appears in Malibu to bid farewell to yet another best friend, she finds herself more anxious than sad, because two of the most important men in her life will be there, and so will their decades-long connections and conflicting emotions... Mick Fleetwood, who has made it clear to her since Christine's death that life is too short to deny oneself happiness...and happiness for Mick is to love Stevie in a way he was denied decades earlier during their brief love affair. Lindsey Buckingham, whom she has not set eyes on in 5 years, ever since the infamous MusiCares incident that got Lindsey kicked out of the band and put an abrupt end to 20 years of "almost" after their breakup after The Dance. Stevie, still grieving the loss of her friend, must decide once and for all who, if either of these men, will be the one with whom she will spend the remaining years of her life - the man whose comfortable friendship and home in Hawaii is waiting for her, or the man she has loved and hated and lusted after and mourned for her entire adult life but has never gotten over. Told in the first-person point of view by all three people involved in this love triangle, "Everybody Loves You" will answer question... Will Stevie choose comfort, passion, or her own independence from it all?Complete

Talk To Me: The Dance Thriller, Part 1
In the spring of 1997, Lindsey Buckingham was having fun in the studio, jamming with Mick, John and occasionally Christine, 4 out of 5 members of Fleetwood Mac ready to rumble. That was when Warner Brothers, capitalizing on the renewed energy and friendships, decided adding Stevie to the mix for a full-blown reunion concert would be a great idea. The Dance, as it was soon called, reunited 5 great musicians and friends...and also...a couple, 20 years smarter and saner and still very much in love. In this THIRD version of The Dance from GoldDustLinda77, you will follow along as Stevie and Lindsey finally clear the air in an effort to see, as they both approach 50, if love can conquer all...if they just sit down and talk and "let their secrets free, baby." Welcome back to 1997, that pivotal moment in history when Buckingham Nicks proves second chances are what happens if you "let the walls burn down" and talk it out.Complete
Buckingham Nicks A/U Series: The Dance (Part 1 of 2)
***In the ongoing Buckingham Nicks alternate universe*** The year is 1997.

Stevie's solo career has been thriving, and they have been raising two teenagers and a very rambunctious and creative and different little girl, Lindsey at home in his studio happily being a stay-at-home dad and making his own music. But when MTV approaches the band for a televised reunion concert and a subsequent tour unfolds, Stevie and Lindsey must navigate not just a resurgence of their careers in middle age but the perils of parenthood - as well as a late-in-life visit from the stork - and somehow keep alive the spark, the love, the undying passion that makes them Buckingham Nicks.Complete
Beauty And The Beast
Stevie Nicks never counted on Mick Fleetwood being her endgame. Sure, they used to joke about getting back together when they were 90 and in the old folks' home, but by 2012, after almost a decade of living with Mick in a beachfront home in Maui, Stevie never would have imagined that the major life changes she and Mick had gone through since the end of The Dance would have forced them together. But there she is, living in Maui with Mick and sleeping beside him each night - when she isn't traveling the country advertising her In Your Dreams documentary with Dave Stewart and trying hard to keep her feelings for him alive despite missing Lindsey so much she can hardly breathe... It isn't until Lindsey arrives in Maui for the opening of Mick's restaurant when temptation strikes and Stevie is forced to examine how she has been living her life for almost a decade...especially when Lindsey makes it clear that he wants her back. Will Stevie risk a comfortable relationship with an old friend for the possibility of true love with the man who has caused her "a world of both pleasure and pain"? And when Lindsey professes his love for Stevie and tells her he is willing to leave his wife for good, will she have the courage to turn to Mick and say, "I never doubted your beauty; I've changed"? Find out who is the beauty, who is the beast, and who, exactly, will die of grieving if she leaves...Complete
