Betting the Farm

By Alyssa Linn Palmer

After her father's funeral, Elly has come back to the family farm to pack up the heirlooms and arrange for the sale of the property. What starts as a lonely night turns into something more when a thunderstorm brings a beautiful stranger to her door...

(A 5,000 word lesbian romance short story, and prequel to BETTING ON LOVE.)

Praise for other works by Alyssa Linn Palmer:

"She writes dark and elegant. I love everything of hers I've ever read." - Tiffany Reisz, author of THE SIREN and SEVEN DAY LOAN

"I love this book! In using the prohibition era for a setting, Palmer takes her novella to the next level, creating a metaphor for things forbidden. Not only alcohol, but the heroine's love for another woman. The sex scenes are sensual and advance the plot. And the historic atmosphere is impeccable." - Donna, Amazon reviewer (for Prohibited Passion)

Alyssa has many passions. Fortunately, none of them are prohibited. When she isn’t working, she’s writing dark tales inspired by mid-20th-century noir books and films, cooking up a storm in her kitchen, and reading.

Reviews for Betting the Farm

[walnut242 · Rating: 2 out of 5 stars]

I am so glad I got this free. It has been on my Kindle a while and I was looking for something short to read. I am sure this will appeal to some readers, just not me. You open with a lonely girl in a farm house when a thunder storm starts. A lone rider on a motorcycle stops by for refuge. I am sure you know what happens next. If you feel like paying $1.99 for 15 pages, I hope you enjoy it. The reason it received 2* is because I do not remember any outstanding errors.
