About this audiobook
Forty-one years of playing it safe ends the night she knocks on her neighbor's door.
Tess Everly spent two decades being the perfect, accommodating wife. Now navigating a devastating divorce, she wants to stop performing and figure out who she actually is. And she definitely wants to know the sophisticated woman living in the penthouse upstairs.
Sabine Renaud doesn’t do messy. The fiercely independent, fifty-year-old gallery owner has strict rules: no sleeping over, no public acknowledgment, no promises. She offers Tess an arrangement—a private exploration of her newly discovered bisexuality.
But their structured lessons quickly unravel into undeniable chemistry. Tess isn’t just looking for a temporary experience; she’s looking for a life she can finally claim. Now, Sabine must decide if she’s brave enough to let her walls down for the one woman who refuses to be hidden.
A steamy, late-in-life awakening sapphic romance featuring an age gap and a hard-won happily ever after.
