Cast Me Gently

De: Caren J. Werlinger

Narrado por: Shalauna Casey

Teresa Benedetto and Ellie Ryan couldn’t be more different, at least on the surface. Teresa still lives at home. As much as she loves her boisterous Italian family, she feels trapped by them and their plans for her life. Their love is suffocating her. Ellie has been on her own for years, working hard to save up enough to live her dream of escaping from Pittsburgh to travel the world. Except leaving isn’t that simple when she knows her brother is out on the streets of the city somewhere, back from Vietnam, but not home.

When Teresa and Ellie meet and fall in love, their worlds clash. Ellie would love to be part of Teresa’s family, but they both know that will never happen. Sooner or later, Teresa will have to choose between the two halves of her heart - Ellie or her family.

Set in 1980, the beginning of the Reagan era and the decline of Pittsburgh’s steel empire, Cast Me Gently is a classic lesbian romance.

Great story about love & family

I enjoyed the story of Teresa & Ellie. I would love to know more about their relationship and how much deeper it develops within the Benedetto family. Also.. there is another mystery not quite solved.

You do Love ME Don’t You?

Kept me going until the very end. Had an instant like to DogMan and Lucy. Off to my next adventure.

Excellent !

I loved Cast Me Gently. I loved reading it and loved it all over again on audio. Really brings to focus making a choice between a partner or your family. Shalauna Casey did an excellent job with the narration.

Lovely

Caren W never disappoints. This was was lovely story from the same time period when I was coming out and starting a relationship. Lots of challenges with family and sexism and homophobia but Theresa and Ellie find their way through.

Heartwarming and inspiring

In this claaaic scenario of how it was for most of us in this situations.This time stamp of yesterday's time of how it was.
