An enemies to lovers lesbian romance about crossing lines that hold us back.
From the moment Freya looks in the window of the brash, new sex shop in Grasstree Flat she knows it will be nothing but trouble. For a start, it will clash with her own new-age store next door. And she’s right. Outgoing newcomer Lily begins to intrude on Freya’s well-ordered life. Freya’s friends, lifestyle, and even her cat are all affected by Lily’s magic touch. Even Freya’s yoga classes rub shoulders with Lily’s sexual-expression workshops. Lily stands for everything Freya has lost in life—playfulness, spontaneity, delight in the physical, and sex.
But does Lily have more in common with Freya than the wall that divides them?

What readers are saying about the book
Harper Bliss, Author
Ah, if only I could read Cheyenne Blue books all the time… Wonderful, heart-warming lesbian romance with excellent writing.
AJ Sneed, Goodreads Reviewer
OK it doesn’t happen often but this story made me cry for the feelings that Ms. Blue was able to bring out in her writing. It was a very well developed and flowing story that made me stay up way too late to finish considering work the next day.
Vita L. Licari, Goodreads Reviewer
What a great ice Queen story this is. You’ll fall in love with Lily, and understand Freya towards the end. Cheyenne wove a great story here. 5 stars.
