    About this audiobook

    Even when it seems hopeless, there can always be a better tomorrow.

    Jill Bishop has one goal in life – to survive. Jill is trapped in an abusive marriage, while raising two young girls. Her husband has isolated her from the world and filled her days with fear. The last thing on her mind is love, but she sure could use a friend.

    Alex McCoy is enjoying a comfortable life, with great friends and a prosperous business. She has given up on love, after picking the wrong woman one too many times. Little does she know, a simple act of kindness might change her life forever.

    When Alex lends a helping hand to Jill at the local grocery store, they are surprised by their immediate connection and an unlikely friendship develops. As their friendship deepens, so too do their fears.

    In order to protect herself and the girls, Jill can’t let her husband know about her friendship with Alex, and Alex can’t discover what goes on behind closed doors. What would Alex do if she finds out the truth? At the same time, Alex must fight her attraction and be the friend she suspects Jill needs. Besides, Alex knows what every lesbian knows – don’t fall for a straight woman, especially one that’s married…but will her heart listen?

      A great story, not as many intimate scenes as others but still had my heart racing in parts

      Warning! Contains serious domestic abuse.

      I would have enjoyed the story more if Alex didn't keep me pisses off. She was such an idiot and caused more emotional pain to Jill than her physical abuser did.
    • 3/5
      The angst I guess you would call it was so drawn out. In my opinion it just got very old. Ruined what could've been a great story.
