Publisher's summary
Cursing the familial obligation that sent her into the path of a blizzard, Jackie Frakes is deeply grateful for rescue on a snow-choked mountain road, even if her rescuer's reception is as cold as the landscape.
Leah Beck spends her days in a twilight of grief, actively avoiding all reminders of her former life as an artist whose work was exhibited nationwide. A houseguest for Thanksgiving is disruptive and painful, and the very last thing she wanted.
The snowbound weekend leaves them with an unforgettable, undeniable attraction that challenges both of their personal and professional commitments. Leah turns to her art with renewed inspiration while Jackie seizes control of her future. But will these new paths lead back to each other? Or will that stunning weekend together be their last?

Story
Jodi Grant had plans—a job interview that held promise and a date with a real woman who didn't only exist in her mind. What she had not planned on was a trip . . . at gunpoint when her father dropped a bombshell in her lap . . . at his own funeral. Dr. Blair Whittington went to Peru in search of ancient artifacts. What she discovered was the illegal antiquities trade in which she had unwittingly become embroiled. Betrayed by Nicolas Grant, Blair must rely on his estranged daughter, the key to her freedom.

Story
Anidyr Bycall is frozen in her past, regretting words never spoken to the woman she loves and the one impulsive act that cost her all her dreams. Running from the courts of public and academic opinion in Fairbanks, she has landed in Key West. The nights are hot but she is colder than the glaciers she once explored. When a few innocent questions raise Ani's doubts about what really happened three years ago, she realizes she may have a chance to clear her name and reclaim her career. But there's no data to suggest that Eve has thawed and that the fire they once shared can be rekindled.

Six months ago, Ty Sutherland dropped out of an online sex chat group. It was anonymous. No one knew their real identity. And it was a space where they could finally be themselves. Unfortunately, it was also a space where they fell in love with a woman whose name they promised to forget. Leslie Brandt would like to forget the online sex chat group she joined on a whim. In real life, she's a successful realtor with a professional image to maintain. She'd never want anyone to know the kinky things she's fantasized about—even if maybe she wishes some of those things could actually happen.

Pro alpine skier Aspen Archer's downfall happened in the worst possible way - a career-ending crash on a gold medal run at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics. Aspen packed up her broken life, picked up her broken body, and now hides in comfortable obscurity at ski resorts around the world, coaching tourists and ignoring her problems. Cate Tierney knows who Aspen is, but the last place she expected to meet the former Olympian was during a ski trip to Australia. Hurt by a past relationship, and with a teenage daughter to protect, Cate's initial reluctance is quickly overcome by her attraction.

How much do I dare risk for his love?

It's scrutiny that writer Paris Ellison can't allow, especially since the glamorous "Anita" is a work of pure fiction. Lady Diana Beckinsale excels at disappearing into a good role.

She can't let someone as unsettling and observant as Diana get too close.

special book
I just loved this: the writing style, the story, the narration.
I've never read a Karin Kallmaker book before, and listened only to Love by the numbers. I found that book a little boring to be honest. But not this!! It's about a lesbian artist who has lived through tragedy, and a straight architect with a long time boyfriend. Their paths cross unexpectedly, and then something happens which will set them both on a new path, forcing them to confront their fears and rethink their ideas about life and love.
Its the 90s, so things aren't as straightforward (pardon the pun) as nowadays; attitudes towards gay people not as tolerant. So there are significant obstacles for the heroines to overcome. Having been around then, I really could relate. Karin Kallmaker is just such a good writer: I was hooked all the way through. I can also see where a lot of lesfic authors got their inspiration from.
The first of two related short stories at the end of the main novel, is also one of the sexiest, most beautiful pieces of writing I have had the pleasure to read in a long time.
I believe Abby Craden is lined up to complete more Kallmaker books to be released early next year. I will be hitting the pre-order button the minute anything appears.

Binge worthy book
I love how descriptive the author is in this. I can 'see' the scenes in my head. Wonderfully written characters you cheer for and hurt for. Took me back to a time when we had no rights, where biological families held all the cards and determined if/when you could see part of your life. And reminded me of how far we've come, and how far we still have to go. I loved this book and the add-ons at the end! My heart is happy.

Nothing better than this
This is a wining combination, a great book and a great narrator, the only thing I have to complain about is why give the 2 short stories connected to this book and not just write a sequel? I don’t have this great imagination to fill in the gaps...
but truly this is an excellent book.

Good and different
Because the original book was published in the 90s this had a very interesting take on a lot of different issues, yet so much hasn’t changed. It was much more than a romance novel. The narration was, as usual, spot on, and the mind of an artist was presented in a way that gave me a better understanding. Worth a listen and enjoyed the bonus stories.

Wonderful story
OMG loved this story! Abby Craden, as usual, narrates these stories straight to my soul. I thoroughly enjoyed this book, the pain, as well as the joy, were so strong and palpable!

An Old Favorite
Years ago, this was one of the first lesbian books I ever read. I forgot how much I liked the story & as usual, Abby Craden was great.

Loved it!
I loved Painted Moon. A great story. Love the opening on a dark, snowy country road in a car ill equipped for the task. Love the setting and the main characters. This is one of the few books I hadn't read before listening to it. So glad, I loved the audio edition. The two short follow up stories really help the book. Abby Craden is the benchmark narrator against which all others are judged.
