Resumen del Editor

An enemies-to-friends-to-lovers lesbian romance about finding heart, hope, and second chances you never thought you'd have.

Stella Carter is a former criminal prosecutor and new widow facing down middle age alone in Los Angeles. Without being a prestigious lawyer and someone's wife, she's not sure who she is anymore or where her life is headed.

When she invites her niece to move in with her, Stella accidentally reconnects with her former colleague, LAPD Captain Elizabeth Murphy. The woman is beautiful but cold; someone she was always at odds with on the job.

Surprisingly, Stella finds herself leaning on her niece and Elizabeth more and more to navigate her loss. But as time goes on, Stella can't keep seeing Elizabeth and pretending she's not attracted to her. Besides, there's absolutely no way Elizabeth feels the same way. Is there?

Contains mature themes.

Love this book!

The book spoke to me, I could connect with so much of the story. This will be a book I will listen to again and again. Ms.Watley did a fabulous job narrating and bringing the characters to life. Ms. Waters, this is a wonderful book!

Fantastic!

All the feels! What a treat to follow Stella during such a tough and wonderful time. I would love a sequel from Elizabeth’s perspective. Great story!

Loved it

I loved this book. One of the sweetest, albeit frustrating at times, stories I have read. I really enjoyed the mcs and they way the author wrote out tje relationships amongst them. Beautiful book.

Once I got into it

It started out a bit slow but once I got into it I thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommend it!

This is so good

I finished the book and instantly replayed it from the beginning. That's how good it is.

dealing with changes

This a great story one the changes of life can lead to changes in your lifestyle as you realize you don't have to continue with the same expectations of other and can live for your own expectations

Absolutely beautiful

This book was wonderfully written, sincerely heartfelt. The Narrator did a wonderful job as well

Such a Soft, Sweet Love Story

This is a lovely, lovely romance between two mature women that developes over many months. It's not exactly a slow burn; more like a wise burn. These women have more water under the bridge than just a high school crush gone bad or a cheating lover. They are both professional women who have experienced ups and downs in their work lives ... and their romances (hetero). IDK, this romance is so sweet and soft....and eventually quite hot...it's one of those books that will stick with me for a while.

I have to give a shout out to Anastasia Watley. In the audio version. she offers a perceptive, gentle, nuanced reading that enhances the already remarkable prose of Ms Waters. Her performance leaves you with the feeling that she understands what the MCs are going through, and she wants to respect their challenges. Do yourself a favor and listen. You'll not only fall in love with the characters, you'll also start searching out other readings by Ms Watley.

Just lovely.

Wonderful love story of mature women

The narrator did a great job of bringing the characters to life. The burn was slow, but worth the wait.

Pretty good

I liked it, however it's not one I'll read again. The first part kinda dragged on, Stella dealing with loss was the main focus. It was emotional yet depressing. The last half of the book got better, and a lot less frustratingly depressing.
Narration was EXCELLENT, Miss Watley did an excellent job. 👏
