A closeted celebrity, a furious neighbour, and a whole lot of sexual tension charge this late-in-life, coming-out lesbian romance set in Sydney.
At forty-six, Maren McEvoy is Australia’s most popular newsreader, but for how much longer? And now her ex-husband has moved in with his boyfriend, and her sixteen-year-old daughter has been caught carjacking. Something has to change. Laid-back Jacinta Fowler is furious. Her new neighbour’s daughter with her nightly prowling and disdain for the law, is a serious threat to Jac’s motorcycle tour business. It’d be so easy to stay mad except that the girl’s mother, Maren, is all kinds of gorgeous. And intriguing. And incredibly famous.
But there’s no way Jac should get involved with a closeted celebrity. That way leads to danger… Right?

It’s truly beautiful and masterful, especially when it comes to Maren’s emotional journey. Watching her develop and build a deeper understanding with her teen is incredibly touching.
I thoroughly enjoyed this story and immediately engaged with all of the characters …. I also loved the relationship between Maren and Jac and the supportive nature of Marcus and Rick. 5 stars
Wow another phenomenal story, I loved the main characters their chemistry was perfection but their individual struggles were very real, how they handled them either together or alone it was written with so much depth making you fall in love with them.
