  This is a story with heart and passion. The characters are relatable, the romance sweet and sexy at the same time. Sam is a sympathetic protagonist, and the rest of the cast (Shawn, Jenna, and Rebecca) are the kind of people you want to root for. They are each faced with unique challenges ranging from death, to bad exes, and simple miscommunication. The erotic scenes are steamy and satisfying, but they are buoyed by the love and compassion exhibited throughout the story. This is not like many Lesbian Romance books, where the characters get their jollies off, then fade to black. This is a story with depth and pathos and care. This story was an enjoyable read, and you owe it to yourself to give this one a shot!
