An ice queen's newfound passion for her best friend upends both their lives in this beautiful lesbian romance about the power of desire and discovery.

No one has ever melted uptight Anne Lowell's icy exterior, not even the husband of thirty years she just divorced. Still, she has her dazzling best friend and neighbor, Sadie Rosenthal, to brighten her days, so she's content. Really, she is.

But when Anne realizes that her feelings for warm-hearted Sadie might be more than just friendship, she's no longer able to ignore the shattering truth she's spent a lifetime repressing.

Anne's choice is clear. She can keep her rigid existence, or she can find the courage to begin a daunting journey with Sadie—one that just might help them both find true happiness.

Contains mature themes.

This is already one of my all time favourite books, but how it was brought to life by Avery Reid was the cherry on top of the cake. Best narrator for this book hands down.
