Resumen del Editor

True love never fades - and old secrets never die....

Nora hasn’t looked back. Not since she fled Texas to start a new life. Away from her father’s volatile temper and the ever-watchful gaze of her claustrophobically conservative small town, Nora has freed herself. She can live - and love - however she wants. The only problem is that she also left behind the one woman she can’t forget. Now, tragedy calls her back home to confront her past - and reconcile her future.

Sophie seems to have everything - a wonderful daughter, a successful husband and a rewarding career. Yet underneath that perfection lies an explosive secret. She still yearns for Nora - her best friend and first love - despite all the years between them. Keeping her true self hidden hasn’t been easy, but it’s been necessary. So when Sophie finds out that Nora has returned, she hopes Nora’s stay is short. The life she has built depends on it.

But they both find that first love doesn’t fade easily. Memories come to light, passion ignites, and old feelings resurface. As the forces of family and intolerance that once tore them apart begin to reemerge, they realize some things may never change - unless they demand it.

Couldn’t stop listening!! A must read!

A well beautifully written story that has you constantly wanting more and the details have you feeling as if your right there with them in the story!!

Great Storytelling

This gave a feeling of a real life story.. I love the development of the characters. Good read!

An ultimate coming out story

What a wonderful love story about overcoming fear of one’s own sexuality to full acceptance of it.

Complex and empathetic treatment of believable characters

I found myself drawn into the circumstances by which two strong women with tender souls are driven apart by the hypocrisy rooted in the male dominant and religiously repressed town in which they lived.
I hope Ms. Lenhardt continues to explore this topic with more strong female characters and teams up with the talented duo of narrators she employed in the fine novel.

So good!

Don’t deliberate. Get this one. The story is great. The writing is great. The performance is great. You won’t regret it.

Raw and authentic!

This story was thoroughly told! The raw emotions. The hard truths. The intimate love. The long years past. The exciting present. The looking forward to the future. The boldness, happiness. fearlessness,hurt, control, pain, gossip, addictions, PTSD. The connection. All these ingredients to formulate what is a 5 star approval. Bravo!

Absolutely loved it!

A wonderful story that kept me listening every spare moment that I had. It felt very authentic and is really well-written.

One of my favorite lgbt books..

I just loved how real this story was.. it’s such a relatable story line. One of my favorites

Intense Humorous Fun

I wholeheartedly recommend this one. The writing I found to be thought provoking and mature. Raw emotions handled with care and honestly. I really enjoyed the journey and payoff ending.

Second-Chance love with the right amount of edge

I really enjoyed this novel. Friends-to-lovers is certainly my favrouite trope. But I often find myself most drawn to YA versions as an ace-spec sapphic, as they tend to be less... Horny. It was so nice to have an adult novel, that had realistic feeling grown women, that wasn't so overly focused on the sex aspect, as I find most adult romance novels do. So for you rare folk out there who are looking for a sweet sapphic adult romance, light on the sex, give this one a go!
