About this listen
Life for Chicago’s rebellious rich girl Cassidy Kavanaugh isn’t as perfect as everyone thinks. She’s miserable and can’t work out why, given all her privilege.
While Christmas shopping for her pseudo-girlfriend at the trendy Graffiti Chic, her whole world changes in a split second.
Meeting an intriguing woman amid the colorful graffiti art is just the start. Then she’s caught up in a terrifying botched robbery with the stranger.
As police close in, tempers fray, and chaos reigns, Cassidy is forced to face who she really is, deep down. And what she stands for.
But can love ever come from such an adrenalin-charged meeting? Or is it just an illusion spun from high stakes and danger?
An opposites-attract lesbian romance about discovering what lies underneath our masks.

Story
Penelope Boswell is my best friend. She’s my person. She’s who I call when I have good news and bad. She’s my comfort. My solace. But in the same breath, she’s my want, my longing, my ache. She isn’t mine. She never will be. It’s a special kind of cruel to be in love with someone you shouldn’t. To know your heart beats for someone you can never have. One phone call in the middle of the night, two thousand miles between us, and everything changes. She’s hurt. Sad. Broken. She needs me. He broke her, and now it’s my responsibility to step in and pick up the pieces…

He broke her, and now it’s my responsibility to step in and pick up the pieces…

Story
Johanna Beals decided sixteen years ago to sacrifice everything to raise her daughter Kayla as a single mother. She knew it was the right decision even when it led to lonely nights and broken relationships, and even when adolescent secrets challenged their mother/daughter bond. But the decision to go it alone seems easy compared to the one she is about to face.

Story
I've spent my whole life preparing for one moment, but on the night I'm supposed to commit myself to the Moon Coven, a murder attempt has me fleeing the safety of the only home I've ever known. I run straight past the safe cottage in the woods and right into the arms of a most unlikely hero—a ruthless pirate captain. As I board The Ruined Soul, I can't be sure if I'm a passenger or a captive, but as the tides grow more dangerous, I begin to suspect there's more to the cold-hearted captain than meets the eye. And my magic just might be the thing to help her thaw out.

Story

A series of awkward and amusing chance encounters at a fan convention lead Freddie to wonder the incredible: What if Andrea isn't as straight as she seems?

Beautifully Flawed Humans
The characters are beautifully flawed. And that is reality. People are beautifully flawed and I love realism. This is a beautiful love story of love and waiting for the one you love under the most unusual circumstances.
It is unique and special and touching. What would you do for your family? What would you do for love? Why is money discrepancy in the US so polarized? Why? Why are people all not truly equal in all ways in this over privileged country with some people living in tent cities on the streets? (No - that isn’t in the book - it just should make you think.)
Rita Potter delivers another humanitarian story of love and crisis and the wealth divide. Beautifully narrated but you miss the lovely narrator because of the raw tension of the marvelous book.
Low spice. Angst medium high. No sexual abuse.
Highly recommended.

interesting 'holiday' story
More a story that begins during the holiday season. Packed with holiday spirit, family, personal growth, forgiveness, and wading through classicism and societal norms and expectations. Great read/listen that I highly recommend.

Main character
Main character is an uninteresting POS who is definitely the worst person in this story. Shes also deeply selfish and a liar. Narrator did a good job.
