The worlds of a butch handywoman and a betrayed, bored housewife collide in this opposites-attract lesbian erotic romance.

When Gillian Jennings's husband dies mid-fling, she's left furious, humiliated, and desperate to take back control. She does so by indulging herself in no-strings sex in the very apartment he cheated on her in. After all, desire is easy. Trust is not.

Sam Freedman makes her living fixing what other people break. She's blunt, rough around the edges, and used to relying on her own two hands-not anyone's promises. But fun with a gorgeous stranger promising no complications changes everything.

The women's chemistry is immediate and scorching, but it doesn't stay contained. Gillian's hunger shifts from revenge to want. Sam's careful distance begins to crack. And the more they give each other in the dark, the harder it is to walk away in the light.

Can they risk seeking real love when sex isn't enough anymore?
