Twenty-nine-year-old Rayann Germaine, betrayed by her lover, flees in grief and rage. She meets book-store owner Louisa Thatcher, a woman many years her senior, who offers shelter and work...and soon, passion, and a loving place in her life.

But Rayann encounters challenges to this new love - from friends who question its wisdom, from her mother who disapproves of this liaison with a woman her own contemporary, from Louisa's son who learns for the first time his mother's true sexuality.

And there are profound differences between Rayann and Louisa themselves, two women who come from dramatically different places in the spectrum of age and life experience. Their only common ground seems to be the searing attraction that they both try to deny....

I read this book around 30 years ago. I don’t usually read books twice but with the amazing Angela Dawe doing the narration, I had to get. The book reminded me of how far we’ve come and where I don’t want the big scary orange man lead us back to.

I loved this story, it is truly ageless. So well written and Angela Dawe made this book come to life.

I am reminded, of a more modern version, of Desert, of the Heart - a lesbian, romance classic. There is, also, just such a great, lesbian community, in this one, like in Painted Moon. Kallmaker wrote a good addition, to the May-December subgenre.

Very Good

Rayann Germaine comes home early to find her girlfriend with another woman. Fleeing to Oakland she meets Louise Thatcher who runs a book store and offers her a room for her help with her business. Louise is 59 and Rayann 29 but that doesn’t stop the feeling and passion growing between them. A great depiction of the differences between generations of lesbians and gays. Awesome narration.
