An unusual meeting in an office supply closet sets events in motion, giving Shea an opportunity--with a little help from a special gift from the past--to fulfill her destiny. Along the way, she meets many women--some famous, some not, some she can trust, some she shouldn't--and one who may be the woman of her dreams. http://www.Fictionwise.com/ebooks/ebook28608.htm Daryl Stone, a therapist at a mental health center, is feeling burned out at her job. And that's just one of her issues. Among other things, there's also the sudden death of the father she never got to know, the strain which ensues in her relationship with her mom, and meeting a woman who just might be the perfect match for her--if only she wasn't also a therapist! You'd think, as her friends do, that Daryl would readily seek a shrink to call her own. But, wisecracking her way through life, Daryl has been more likely to rely on such things as pop culture, talk shows, and food for answers and solace. Therapy is for other people--or is it? http://www.Fictionwise.com/ebooks/ebook42403.htm Young Nathan Anzalone is excited when new neighbors move into the mansion next door. Awkward, sheltered and geeky, he holds out hope that the neighbors include a new friend with whom he can play. That was not to be, however. Diana Renoir and the formidable Cleo Damien have moved into the sleepy town of Silver River in hopes of finally being able to lead a "normal" life. When the gawky kid from next door is caught spying on them as they play by their pool, Cleo takes Nathan under her wing and all three lives are changed forever. In the midst of a murder mystery, Diana and Cleo find that life in the small town is anything but normal. Under Cleo's tutelage, Nathan sheds his awkwardness, the ladies discover a mortal enemy in the boy's cruel and neglectful father, Diana becomes the target of a madman, and the ladies next door learn that a colorful cast of characters can sometimes be found where you least expect it. http://www.Fictionwise.com/ebooks/ebook28607.htm Overall, a comedy of errors, the prevailing themes of this collection are misunderstanding and ambivalence in intimacy between women. In the title story, our middle-aged heroine pursues her adolescent desires and learns a lesson or two on route. In other tales, down-to-earth Bernie meets a spaced-out lady, and is touched by magic in the end; Fat Betty wants to make a meal of the willful Princess Evaleen, (as the way to a woman's heart is through her stomach). Elsewhere, Wild Horses couldn't keep them apart--but what kept them together? And Maxine suffers unduly for her Unsafe Address. Throughout the 21 stories and vignettes, women relate intimately in a passionate mix of love, lust, selfishness, generosity, kindness, cowardice, confusion and dismay. Ambiguity rules the day, with even the account of pre-pubertal sex play, Kid's Stuff, having a twist in the tale; raising questions of allegiance at an early age. The longest story is Hannah in My Arms, an enthralling novella of girlhood love, lust and faithlessness in a British single sex school. (The reader may decide who betrayed whom in the end.) The briefest tale is Saturdaze: a nifty little gem, erotic, and diamond-bright with very sharp edges! http://www.Fictionwise.com/ebooks/ebook28606.htm Faith In Love is a lesbian novel for readers of every sexual identity. Written from the point of view of Faith, a wife, mother and football widow who works in a baker's shop in north London and shops in Tesco's in her lunch hour, it is lively, humorous, candid and challenging. A passionate glance she wasn't meant to see, between two seemingly ordinary women, shows Faith a different view of the world, and sets her on the trail of a new way of life. On route she gets a fresh and surprising view of the people she thought she knew best--her soccer-mad husband, her school-age vegetarian daughter and herself! Faith's journey advances through scenes of love and lust, sudden flashes of violence and queasy revelation, as, her curiosity aroused, she pursues one of the mystery women--at first in a playful way, and then more determinedly into the local lesbian bars. Her family life begins to unravel, as she realizes no one is who they seem to be and nothing is as it appears. Revelations and twists abound as Faith meets the twin challenges of her true sexual identity, and those of Eva, her alluring, amoral, ambivalent sister-in-law. There is conflict and reconciliation in Faith's story; truth and lies. Some wounds are healed; some may never heal. But in the end, Faith has something more to confide. She is eager for further adventure--optimistic, romantic, and brimming over with Faith In Love.
