Overview

HER DAUGHTER’S BEST FRIEND. HER DARKEST DESIRE.

Vera Sterling has spent forty-six years perfecting the art of being invisible. To the world, she is the elegant, composed, and successful divorcée living in a pristine London townhouse. Inside, she is suffocating, convinced that passion is a privilege she missed out on.

Then Sonia Reed walks back into her life with muddy boots and a storm in her eyes.
Sonia is twenty-four, vibrant, and unapologetically alive. She is the landscape gardener hired to tame Vera’s wild backyard. She is the only person who sees the cracks in Vera’s porcelain mask. She is also the one woman Vera can never touch—because Sonia is her daughter’s best friend.

It starts with a secret glance in a crowded room. It deepens with a forbidden touch in a rainy greenhouse. Soon, their undeniable chemistry ignites a steamy, slow-burn affair that threatens to burn Vera’s carefully constructed world to the ground. This isn't just a mid-life crisis; it’s a sexual awakening. But the guilt of betraying her daughter is a heavy price to pay for finally feeling alive.

Caught between the love of her child and the woman who owns her soul, Vera must make the ultimate sacrifice. When the secret comes out, will she choose the safety of the dark, or risk everything for a love that could destroy them all?
